Tutankhamen: and the discovery of his tomb by the late Earl of Carnarvon and Mr. Howard Carter (1923)

af Sir Grafton Elliot Smith ...

Never before in the history of archaeological inquiry has any event excited such immediate and world-wide interest as Mr Howard Carter's discovery of Tutankhamen's tomb in November 1922. Very little is known as yet of the king himself, but twelve months hence no doubt his mummy will give up its secrets and perhaps the story of his life will be revealed. But at the moment he is supposed to have ... Læs mere
