I saw his gold funeral mask, in the Museum of Antiquities, in Cairo; in October of this year; as well as his dagger, a lot of jewelry and other things. The level of fine detailing and intricacies that went into making these things, is astounding. I knew I'd be impressed by the large pieces but the beauty of the smaller items, made tears come to my eyes. There were golden harness buckles that had metalwork so fine, it was like lace. The artisans who created these things were superb craftsmen.

Aside from visiting the pyramids, as you’ve mentioned , the museum is brilliant. To see Tuts gold mask and many other things , amazing!.

As of this writing, the gold price per ounce is $1,866. Since there are 12 troy ounces in a troy pound, gold is selling at approximately $22,392 per pound ($1,866 x 12). The total amount of gold found in King Tut's tomb was 1200 kg. (or 2,645.547 pounds.) Inside the innermost coffin laid King Tut's mummified remains clad with a golden death mask in the Kings likeness. The mask sits 1.8 feet tall and contains a total of 321.5 troy ounces of gold. This gives it a value of over a half a million dollars in _just_ its weight in gold. The total amount of gold, (1200 kg. or 2645.547 pounds,)at, $22,392 per pound means that; in today's market, the _total_ amount of just the gold discovered inside of King Tut's tomb would fetch a price upwards of $59,239,088.42.

ill love to hear see more of this The tomb of Yuya and Thuya, also known by its tomb number KV46, is the burial place of the ancient Egyptian noble Yuya and his wife Thuya Tutankhamun King Tut lol The Egyptian name for Thebes was wꜣs.t, "City of the wꜣs", the sceptre of the pharaohs, a long staff with an animal's head and a forked base. From the end of the New Kingdom, Thebes was known in Egyptian as njw.t-jmn, the "City of Amun", the chief of the Theban Triad of deities whose other members were Mut and Khonsu. This name of Thebes appears in the Tanakh as the "Nōʼ ʼĀmôn" (נא אמון) in the Book of Nahum[5] and also as "No" (נא) mentioned in the Book of Ezekiel[6] and Jeremiah.[7][8] "Thebes" is sometimes claimed to be the Latinised form of Ancient Greek: Θῆβαι, the hellenized form of Demotic Egyptian tꜣ jpt ("the temple"), referring to jpt-swt; the temple is now known by its Arabic name, Karnak ("fortified village"), on the northeast bank of the city. Since Homer refers to the metropolis by this name, and since Demotic script did not appear until a later date, the etymology is doubtful. As early as Homer's Iliad,[9] the Greeks distinguished the Egyptian Thebes as "Thebes of the Hundred Gates" (Θῆβαι ἑκατόμπυλοι, Thēbai hekatómpyloi) or "Hundred-Gated Thebes", as opposed to the "Thebes of the Seven Gates" (Θῆβαι ἑπτάπυλοι, Thēbai heptápyloi) in Boeotia, Greece.[n 1] In the interpretatio graeca, Amun was rendered as Zeus Ammon. The name was therefore translated into Greek as Diospolis, "City of Zeus".

Putting Carters' famous discovery aside. The real takeaway here was that this find heralded the arrival of true science-based archeology. Carter meticulously cataloged and studied the find as opposed to simply emptying the tomb as some might have done. He spent years systematically going through each item and documenting it prior to its removal from the tomb. It was years after its discovery before he even got to studying the sarcophagus.

Canarvon wanted to take some of the contents back to England for his collection as he had bought the concession to excavate. Theodore Davis who gave up the concession feeling the Valley was worked out, sent material back to America for investigation from earlier finds of Tut-ankh-amun material (some sealed jars with the king's cartouche). Howard Carter, who was much more in tune with Egyptian sensitivities and had even learnt to speak Coptic to be able to converse directly with his workmen, insisted the entire tomb must be kept in Egypt. The king's body still lies in his sarcophagus in the Valley.

I am proud to say or just happy to say that my mother took me to go see this when I was a little kid I was so amazed amazed at what I saw

[@sucheta5993]

Realising:- The less you reveal…. The More people can wonder✨

[@Kessoku]

it's shame that the other tomb is robbed.

[@shahidamazhar7818]

Dont you think this was also a robbery Also why would they open it ? It was not sealed to be opened also if they did for research why would they take one county’s heritage n treasures to some other country I am against it

[@missouriresole4726]

@@shahidamazhar7818 at least in this case everyone can admire the precious artifacts. In other tomb cases all of the cont is vanished and nobody apart from thefts known how glorious was the tomb

[@OAwesomeO]

@@shahidamazhar7818 It is and it isnt. We at least get to uncover the tombs mysteries and see the artifacts and guarantee the preservation. I wish he could have stayed undisturbed for all time but he was going to be found eventually, so at least this way he was found by respectful archeologist that made sure to preserve him and his belongings

[@Riffman08-dz6pv]

​@@shahidamazhar7818it's a disrespect so vile.I don't care that they have scientific research to pursue,who in their right minds digs up a dead body for research

[@Riffman08-dz6pv]

​@@OAwesomeOyou're just an indecent individual because I certainly don't feel the need to admire peoples belongings

Can you even imagine this happening OMG! Years ago I read the most wonderful novel by Allen Drury called A God Against the Gods about Akenaten and Nefertiti, one of my all time favorite books! I’m going to Cairo in February for a 12 day trip including a Nike cruise and I just can’t wait.

Absolutely magnificent

Amazing craftmanship

[@davidmccormick2957]

I just sense that the ancient Egyptians was magical. It was more than just stones and preserving etc. It was mysticism etc the ancient Egyptians seemed very in tune and psychic mystical.

The museum in Cairo where these artefacts are held is absolutely stunning. The Tutankhamun section is utterly without parallel....the most beautiful and breath-taking antiquities on the planet. Just make sure that the masks etc will be there before you go because they travel the world on tours and exhibitions. One of the things that struck me when I visited was that I was looking at African artefacts...the Pyramids were constructed by Africans, ancient Egyptians were a truly African people. Detach yourself from the current Arabic immigrant population that is modern Egypt and go back in time to ancient North Africa....

[@m-h1217]

@@mikko3 That makes zero sense since ancient Egyptians were besides Egyptian also African.

[@ahmedabdelsatar1562]

Detach the Ancient Egyptians from your Afrocentric crab first The Ancient Egyptians aren’t black Africans they never described Africa , 2- Modern Day Egyptians are the descendants of Ancient Egyptians they aren’t Arabs just for speaking Arabic and being Muslims They aren’t immigrants

Ayo let my homie rest🗿

[@miguelsantos648]

Egyptians in the pharaonic era were so adavanced , it was incredible, now a days there are just not advanced at all , and it’s is really a shame that such a nation , with such history, went down like this

[@kingofkings1313]

Literally amazing.

[@gary8654]

King Tutankhamun was violated in so many ways it's a crime against humanity. This is mainly for his treasures and self glorification and manipulation of history.

[@nuyorican91st]

I totally agree In elementary school we had a history lesson and read books and watched a vhs tape and I swear I remember hearing people were getting cursed and dying mysteriously after excavation of his tomb or during the process

[@geminirants424]

What do you mean self glorification? Why do you think they dug him up?

[@AdamSmith-gt7jv]

I think it's nice to preserve history and answer questions of the past, but makes me feel weird sometimes thinking about how they are disturbing the dead. What if in 3000 years they start digging up our graves? lol

[@athathsonty2925]

What if ?

[@stevensteven3417]

He doesnt care anymore, probably was already reborned many times or is just non existing.

[@andrewcrandon2837]

3000 years? In 100 years most current graves/cemeteries will be emptied and moved to give space to more dead.

[@fredmartin643]

Ancient royalty. Fascinating

[@BurnCrushExecute]

I don't remember growing much after 19.. Let's just admit Tut was a little dude.

[@arunramesh8133]

People do grow, mostly until 21. Well, everyone's body is different

[@patrick.771]

even a few hundred years ago people were much smaller than they are now (men often 1.5 - 1.6 meters). Average body size always changed over time.

[@profsasikumark8210]

I was in Egypt 5 months back for 8 days. My interest was mainly to SEE Tuth .l had been studying about Tuth from 1978.Spect aculat and wonderful Egypt.

[@klou823]

Crazy!! Fascinating!!

[@aaroneaton583]

I always found it funny how Egypt is in Africa but a lot of people don't knowledge that

[@TamaraGarrettAlpha]

So much stolen stuff from Africa 😞

[@ahmedabdelsatar1562]

Being in Africa doesn’t mean you have to be black African Africa is a huge continent like Asia with 10+ races you will find Chinese Arabs Japanese Indians very much different races That is what Africans need to understand because I see many Africans are racist like Europeans if you are not black then you aren’t from Africa and that is wrong given that Egypt is literally 1\3 of it in Asia which is Siani
