Little was known about King Tutankhamen, who had died when he was 19.

In 1922, the discovery of Tutankhamun's 3,000-year-old burial chamber by Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon in the Valley of the Kings. captivated the world. The king’s mummified body still lay, surrounded by precious grave goods, in his golden coffin. Today, Tutankhamun is ancient Egypt’s most famous pharaoh. It was the culmination of a 15-year search which eventually uncovered 5,000 antiques including the king's sarcophagus, his gold mask, and stillborn mummies. On the 93rd anniversary of the find, researchers have unveiled newly colourised photos of the discovery. The pictures were taken by British photographer Harry Burton during the excavation process and have been made from the original glass plate negatives. Tutankhamun was buried in the world’s most expensive coffin, two of Tutankhamun’s three coffins were made of wood, covered with gold sheet. But, to Howard Carter’s great surprise, the innermost coffin was made from thick sheets of beaten gold. This coffin measures 1.88m in length, and weighs 110.4kg. If it were to be scrapped today it would be worth well about £2million. http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/africa/king-tutankhamun-officials-90-sure-there-is-a-secret-chamber-ancient-egyptian-tomb-a6752586.html#gallery http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sciencetech/article-3307795/King-Tut-s-tomb-COLOUR-Stunning-new-images-historic-discovery-boy-king-s-burial-chamber-new-light.html Lalasticlala Mynd44
