Tutankhamun鈥檚 Secrets
Tutankhamun鈥檚 treasure-packed tomb is renowned as the world鈥檚 greatest ancient discovery. Dr Janina Ramirez turns detective and heads to Egypt to uncover the real story of how it was found.
On the 100th anniversary of the discovery of Tutankhamun's treasure-packed tomb, Dr Janina Ramirez turns detective and heads to Egypt to uncover the real story of how a Briton called Howard Carter unearthed a pharaoh鈥檚 tomb when everyone else believed there were no more great Egyptian finds to be made.
She discovers that some of Tutankhamun鈥檚 treasures are missing and reveals the name of the person responsible. She delves into the origins of the supposed pharaoh鈥檚 curse, finds the surprising truth about the young king鈥檚 brutal injuries and digs out fresh evidence that Tutankhamun wasn鈥檛 the delicate, powerless boy king of legend but was instead a powerful statesman.
