Inhaltsangabe

  1. Tells the story of the tomb of Tutankhamun, placing the discoveries in their historical context and includes many historical documents that are being published here for the first time
  2. Includes painstaking recreations, in color, of a number of key contemporary photographs taken at the time by Harry Burton
  3. Published to accompany an exhibition at The Ashmoleam Museum, Oxford, UK from July 24th to October 26th 2014

>Against this backdrop of painstaking scholarship, the book also explores the phenomenon of 'Tut-mania', when the world was gripped by all things Tutankhamun, from jewelry and clothing to dance music and curses. In the final section, the authors re-evaluate what the tomb's contents can tell us about the king and his time, and explore various projects that have in recent years sought to ensure the preservation of Tutankhamun's tomb and its contents for future generations. For all of these projects, the Howard Carter archive in the Griffith Institute remains an invaluable resource.
