Tutankhamun

Tutankhamun was the son of Akhenaten.

Lord Carnarvon died after being bit by a mosquito. This led to the legend of the "Curse of Tutankhamun", also known as the "Curse of the Mummy."

A hundred years after their discovery, the artifacts from Egyptian prehistoric mausoleums will return close to the place where they were found. A huge new museum overlooking the Giza pyramids in Egypt is due to open some of its sections early next year. The exhibit devoted to pharaoh Tutankhamun, known to archeologists as the Golden Boy and in popular culture as King Tut, is expected to draw the most attention.
