King Tut’s Tomb Was Sealed for 3,000 Years… Then This Happened

from Megalithic Marvels · host Derek Olson

On November 26, 1922, British archaeologist Howard Carter and his financier Lord Carnarvon, after years of searching, finally discovered the burial chamber of the young pharaoh Tutankhamun who ruled 1332 – 1323 B.C. during the late Eighteenth Dynasty of ancient Egypt. Unearthing the most well-preserved tomb in Egypt's Valley of the Kings, Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon became instant world-wide celebrities overnight, but all would not be well for long... Soon after opening Tutankhamun's tomb, several people who either entered his tomb, handled his artifacts or who were involved with the excavation of his tomb, began to die of rather strange circumstances... Were these unfortunate deaths the result of circumstantial coincidences or that of an ancient deadly curse?
