A 3000 Year Old Murder Mystery
When Tutankhamen died mysteriously at the age of 19, a small tomb was hastily readied for his burial, his body mummified, fabulous jewels and furniture gathered, and the tomb sealed. Then: silence. In the years that followed, almost every trace of the king and his wife was literally erased. In 1922, the tomb was uncovered, revealing such a dazzling array of treasure that it was easy to forget that almost nothing was known about the man buried there.
In this fascinating book, leading Egyptologist Bob Brier brings to life the dramatic story of Tutankhamen. He uncovers what really happened to the young king and uses new forensic evidence to show that Tutankhamen was brutally murdered.
