Awesome! I missed seeing the King Tut display when it came through San Francisco in the 80s. All primed to go, but my friend had to back out at the last minute.

The story of Akhenaten, Nefertiti, and Tutanhkamen has fascinated me since I discovered Egyptology as a pre-teen. Great photo! Carter’s tomb discovery saga is also fascinating - is there a curse? How do we know?
(Can I put in a plug for a photo of Nefertiti?)
I’ve read that King Tut may have been a father of twins. There were two mummified fetuses in the tomb with him. Very interesting!
