内容简介
The discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb in 1922 amazed and gripped the whole world. The tomb, its occupant, and thetreasures he was buried with have never ceased to fascinate, and the burial of the young pharaoh still remains the most dramatic archaeological find ever made. Lavishly illustrated and with text that is both informative and approachable, Tutankhamun looks at the circumstances leading up to Howard Carter's astonishing discovery and at the extraordinary find itself. It also examines the life and times of the boy king, once one of Ancient Egypt's most insignificant rulers, now the best known by far.
