A little about King Tut's tomb











Here's a little story about King Tut's Tomb found by Thedore Davis and Howard Carter in November of 1922 at the Valley of The Kings. OK mabe singing it for you isnt a good idea but anyway within a few days tourists and media from all over the world came but Carter feared that somone would steal everything from the tomb when the tomb was open. Thats kind of a good idea... not that I would try to rob it but of course I wouldn't because I'd probally never get a chance to visit The Valley of the Kings. The items above are pictures of some of the stuff found in Tutakhamun's tomb but there are like 20 more items that were found in his tomb including a doll like King Tut mummified in his Sarcophagus. More about his tomb at http://www.kingtutone.com/ At the beginning of 2009 Archeologists anounced that they are going to refurbrish King Tut's tomb within 2010 and 2012. Without going to Egypt to see his tomb there is a traviling exhibit around the United States of King Tut's tomb that is almost exactly like the real Tomb.
