emthehistorygirl:Today in HistoryOur concept of history and archaeology is forever changed with the discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamun by Howard Carter. The story is well known, school children are told about how Howard Carter, funded by Lord Carnarvon dug through the Valley of the Kings unsuccessfully for years before finally finding the tomb of Tutankhamun. How all through the tomb, one could see “everywhere the glint of gold”.Colourised photographs of the excavation are now on exhibition in New York. -- source link
