Pharaoh Tutankhamen on public display


Tutankhamen was the king at the age of nine.He ruled over all the abiding spirits of deserts and far beyond.When reached to nineteen the King went to a deep sleep of eternity surrounded with fabulous collection of gold and treasure.Three thousands years later somebody interrupted his sleep.It was neither any royal family member,nor the oracle of the Pharaoh.
It was British explorer Howard Carter in the valley of Kings.He saw the mummified body of the pharaoh.In an effort to disentangle the treasure Carter and his team cut the body into pieces.He chopped off the limbs and head,used hot knives and wires to remove the gold mask,which was fused to Tutankhamen’s face by the embalming process.The body was reconstructed and returned to its original stone coffin.Today 3000 years old pharaoh Tutankhamen was put on public display.
Today’s pharaoh rule over the whole glob and he has several think tanks and special interest groups as oracles.There are no golden chariots with twelve horses;instead the pharaoh has Air force one.
