The Moment Carter Opens The Shrine, 1924, Egypt
Context: Howard Carter discovered the entrance to Tutankhamun’s tomb on 4 November 1922 after years of searching in the Valley of the Kings. Clearing the stairway revealed sealed doorways that had miraculously kept the burial largely safe from looters. On 26 November he looked inside and saw a room filled with untouched treasures. It became the first nearly intact royal tomb ever found and ignited global fascination with ancient Egypt.

On this day in 1925, the last of three coffins was opened to reveal the mummy and golden mask of King Tut; its first time being seen in 3,250 years.
Made of 18k to 23k gold, it weighs 23 pounds and is over 21 inches long (54 centimetres, 2 kilograms). The god depicted is Osiris but the face is Tut's. His eyes are lapis, quartz, and obidian (pupils).

I'm convinced that the widow in question who wrote to #Suppiluliuma was #Tutankhamun's wife #Ankhesenamun who - after his sudden death at just 18 - was shortly married to his old religious consultant and successor Ay but then refused to marry his next successor #Horemheb. she had known him for many years as the military leader and diplomat under her late husband Tut and knew about his common origin. "I would not wish to take one of my subjects as a husband... I am afraid."
