In 1978 I saw the King Tut exhibit in New York. It was breathtaking.The tour guide said they found wine and fruitcake that was so well preserved that it was still edible.The ancient Egyptians were so advanced in every way.
Nice to hear someone else saw the highlight life exibit. I saw it in New Orleans , as a teenager..We Raised money at School to go on the School buses . Yes , it was Breath Taking, and highlight of my life..
A hundred years after he's tomb was discovered ,and yet it still fascinates, I love Egyptian art, It's incredible how they made king Tut's death mask, the artistic precision and detail is just staggering.
ill love to hear see more of this The tomb of Yuya and Thuya, also known by its tomb number KV46, is the burial place of the ancient Egyptian noble Yuya and his wife Thuya Tutankhamun King Tut lol
I saw his gold funeral mask, in the Museum of Antiquities, in Cairo; in October of this year; as well as his dagger, a lot of jewelry and other things. The level of fine detailing and intricacies that went into making these things, is astounding. I knew I'd be impressed by the large pieces but the beauty of the smaller items, made tears come to my eyes. There were golden harness buckles that had metalwork so fine, it was like lace. The artisans who created these things were superb craftsmen.
I went there twice , both times from Cyprus when on holiday there. If they still do those day trips via flight or the 24 hr cruises there from Cyprus , i 100% recommend doing it , should anyone happen to be in Cyprus who hadn’t ever planned on visiting Egypt direct. Aside from visiting the pyramids, as you’ve mentioned , the museum is brilliant. To see Tuts gold mask and many other things , amazing!. I got such a buzz standing up close to it and seeing it with my own eyes. And I’m not usually a museum kinda guy either!
This is so beautiful. I got goosebumps looking at the mummy revealed. Thank you for continuing to tell this story and adding more information and details.

Am I the only one who believes the archaeologists were also tomb robbers? The Egyptians were fixated on eternal life and carefully planned their resting places. It is sacrilege to disturb them so casually.
That’s because they are im sure king tut family didn’t think they were going be dug up 100s of years later and treated like they weren’t even human beings
To be able to capture the first facial reactions of the archeologists as the tomb was opened. Now this would also be a treasure. 💎👑📿💍 (Thanks for this surreal share.)
@@The_Black_Capsthat’s not what they are saying…. Are you 12? They are talking about how euphoric they must feel from finding a huge discovery like that.
As of this writing, the gold price per ounce is $1,866. Since there are 12 troy ounces in a troy pound, gold is selling at approximately $22,392 per pound ($1,866 x 12). The total amount of gold found in King Tut's tomb was 1200 kg. (or 2,645.547 pounds.) Inside the innermost coffin laid King Tut's mummified remains clad with a golden death mask in the Kings likeness. The mask sits 1.8 feet tall and contains a total of 321.5 troy ounces of gold. This gives it a value of over a half a million dollars in _just_ its weight in gold. The total amount of gold, (1200 kg. or 2645.547 pounds,)at, $22,392 per pound means that; in today's market, the _total_ amount of just the gold discovered inside of King Tut's tomb would fetch a price upwards of $59,239,088.42. (In case you ever wondered. ✌)
I was fortunate enough to see the exibit as a teenager in New Orleans. One of the most exquisite highlights of my life. In my 50s now , it's still breath Taking to See and Remember.
@@-metaknight-1135 Dig it up and save it from the Black market, or leave it for the constant grave robbers so it gets into private collections. This is the right thing to do today in order to preserve the history.
Ancient Civilazition is amazing. The earth must have been in its purest and healthiest form back then. Considering global warming never existed before the deserts and islands must have had beautiful, clear, and clean bodies of water.
ill love to hear see more of this The tomb of Yuya and Thuya, also known by its tomb number KV46, is the burial place of the ancient Egyptian noble Yuya and his wife Thuya Tutankhamun King Tut lol The Egyptian name for Thebes was wꜣs.t, "City of the wꜣs", the sceptre of the pharaohs, a long staff with an animal's head and a forked base. From the end of the New Kingdom, Thebes was known in Egyptian as njw.t-jmn, the "City of Amun", the chief of the Theban Triad of deities whose other members were Mut and Khonsu. This name of Thebes appears in the Tanakh as the "Nōʼ ʼĀmôn" (נא אמון) in the Book of Nahum[5] and also as "No" (נא) mentioned in the Book of Ezekiel[6] and Jeremiah.[7][8] "Thebes" is sometimes claimed to be the Latinised form of Ancient Greek: Θῆβαι, the hellenized form of Demotic Egyptian tꜣ jpt ("the temple"), referring to jpt-swt; the temple is now known by its Arabic name, Karnak ("fortified village"), on the northeast bank of the city. Since Homer refers to the metropolis by this name, and since Demotic script did not appear until a later date, the etymology is doubtful. As early as Homer's Iliad,[9] the Greeks distinguished the Egyptian Thebes as "Thebes of the Hundred Gates" (Θῆβαι ἑκατόμπυλοι, Thēbai hekatómpyloi) or "Hundred-Gated Thebes", as opposed to the "Thebes of the Seven Gates" (Θῆβαι ἑπτάπυλοι, Thēbai heptápyloi) in Boeotia, Greece.[n 1] In the interpretatio graeca, Amun was rendered as Zeus Ammon. The name was therefore translated into Greek as Diospolis, "City of Zeus".
It's amazing how much detail was put in making this coffin you can even see the Holes in the ears meaning that the young king had his ears pierced at one point in his life..
the problem is that every civilization come to decline in at a certain point in history we have declined badly after the pharohs and been through many many invasions that looted and stole our monuments and of course thieves only care about themselves whether they are egyptians or foriegners
In 2011 I went to his exhibition in Melbourne called, Tutankhamun and the golden age of the Pharaohs, ❤️ I went to Egypt in 2019 and seen Tutankhamuns golden mask and his tomb, lucky enough it reopened to the public one month before I arrived so I got to see him after it was closed for over 10 years of restoration, I was meant to go when I did. And I'm glad I did.
Currently in Cairo overlooking the pyramids as I write this. I saw Kings Tuts Tom's in Kings Valley and today his coffin and treasure at the museum in Cairo... Amazing
Our archeology teacher in university says that the coffin's are buried too deep and too secured are not just it has a lot of golds/diamonds etc. Most of them contain unknown diseases.
Tut was a young Pharaoh who died long before preparations were made, he was from a much hated dynasty directly following a tumultuous period (the 18th dynasty, Amarna period), yet his sarcophagus was nothing short of magnificent. Can you imagine what a beloved Pharaoh's tomb goods and sarcophagus might have been like? Say Seti I or Ramesses II for example.... the riches, the art, the craftsmanship would have been beyond what I think we could even comprehend.
Putting Carters' famous discovery aside. The real takeaway here was that this find heralded the arrival of true science-based archeology. Carter meticulously cataloged and studied the find as opposed to simply emptying the tomb as some might have done. He spent years systematically going through each item and documenting it prior to its removal from the tomb. It was years after its discovery before he even got to studying the sarcophagus.
I've read about how the jumbled objects and small tomb was due to King Tut's expected passing at a young age, but I wonder how did they have enough time to make such elaborate coffins and the gold mask if the funeral was indeed rushed? Could it be that the items outside the burial chamber were shrewn all over the place by the ancient robbers known to have breached the site?
Gold and wood are easy carvable/malleable materials. Creating a whole burial chamber, painting it, and arranging it with all the gifts would have been the real time consuming process.
They reckon the mask was altered, the back says that according to experts and his coffin the paint was rushed you can see with the running marks of paint etc
Tutancamon was only a ordinary pharaoh, and because of his chamber and treasure became the most famous pharaoh. Imagine if the biggest pharaohs like Ramses, queops and others pharaohs chamber didn't have been robbed. The treasures we should discover....
That mask is just beyond anything I've seen. But the most astonishing thing on my opinion is still his dagger made of meteorite. That's literally the mythic level 99 dagger that only one player found from one dungeon once.
Even if it could be duplicated today which would be extremely difficult and material/ labor intensive. To the point of being impossible the costs would be staggering and even then pale to the original. Amazing craftsmanship in funerary arts. Highly symbolic and never intended to be seen by human eyes again.
Imagine if there were no ancient grave robbers in the world. Imagine if location of pharaohs' tombs were kept strictly in secret in a secluded areas. Imagine if those items weren't destined to crumble when they were to be transported to their safekeeping place. Thousands of thousand of priceless artifacts could be uncovered. We probably could fit a small-ish Egyptian exhibits in every museum in the world if we could.
So many coffins it did not want to be opened. The utmost highest level of respect, Giving you a chance to turn back each time, But I must say, It is fascinating to see the decorations inlaid on these golden human like coffins, Truly magnificent!
Can you even imagine this happening OMG! Years ago I read the most wonderful novel by Allen Drury called A God Against the Gods about Akenaten and Nefertiti, one of my all time favorite books! I’m going to Cairo in February for a 12 day trip including a Nike cruise and I just can’t wait.
Mummification was only bestowed on the Pharaohs and other important individuals. Yes it still is only digging up graves/tombs but they are also digging up a lot of ancient history and knowledge.
"Carter" and "Carefully" don't go well with each other.. He in order to open that ruined it all the way breaking it ruthlessly with shivel.. Dude nat geo 2 years back you were the one telling that "Howard Carter's expedition ruined the mummy more than it revealed!" 🤔
I was in Egypt 5 months back for 8 days. My interest was mainly to SEE Tuth .l had been studying about Tuth from 1978.Spect aculat and wonderful Egypt.
I just sense that the ancient Egyptians was magical. It was more than just stones and preserving etc. It was mysticism etc the ancient Egyptians seemed very in tune and psychic mystical.
Canarvon wanted to take some of the contents back to England for his collection as he had bought the concession to excavate. Theodore Davis who gave up the concession feeling the Valley was worked out, sent material back to America for investigation from earlier finds of Tut-ankh-amun material (some sealed jars with the king's cartouche). Howard Carter, who was much more in tune with Egyptian sensitivities and had even learnt to speak Coptic to be able to converse directly with his workmen, insisted the entire tomb must be kept in Egypt. The king's body still lies in his sarcophagus in the Valley.
@@albertpuppymaster671 Yes in these days we are working hard to return our robbed Artifacts like Nefertiti bust And others hopefully we will return as much as we can
Imagine being a labor worker giving workers water time to time while excavation of the grave and then u suddenly discover the greatest discovery of all time and then someone else takes credit for it I feel bad for that waterboy who discovered that staircase
The museum in Cairo where these artefacts are held is absolutely stunning. The Tutankhamun section is utterly without parallel....the most beautiful and breath-taking antiquities on the planet. Just make sure that the masks etc will be there before you go because they travel the world on tours and exhibitions. One of the things that struck me when I visited was that I was looking at African artefacts...the Pyramids were constructed by Africans, ancient Egyptians were a truly African people. Detach yourself from the current Arabic immigrant population that is modern Egypt and go back in time to ancient North Africa....
Detach the Ancient Egyptians from your Afrocentric crab first The Ancient Egyptians aren’t black Africans they never described Africa , 2- Modern Day Egyptians are the descendants of Ancient Egyptians they aren’t Arabs just for speaking Arabic and being Muslims They aren’t immigrants
Ruled by outsiders for the last 2500 years; from the Persians and Assyrians, to the Ptolemies and Macedonians, to the Romans, to the Arabs, to the Mamelukes and Turks, to the French and English. All of these invasions and colonizations occurred AFTER the fall of a 3500-year dynastic Kemetic civilization, and a probably longer pre-dynastic Kemetic civilization. These outsiders had nothing to do with Kemet except the demise of its indigenous population.
Egyptians in the pharaonic era were so adavanced , it was incredible, now a days there are just not advanced at all , and it’s is really a shame that such a nation , with such history, went down like this
FASCINATING!!!😮😃👍👍 I'VE BEEN INTRIGUED BY KING TUT'S MUMMY AS WELL AS QUEEN NEFERTITI!!! WELL, THE WHOLE EGYPTIAN ARTWORKS!!! INCREDIBLE WHEN I THINK THESE WERE REAL HUMANS LIVING 2-3000 YEARS AGO IN EGYPT!!! WWOWW!!!😮 I'M GETTING ALL EXCITED BECAUSE NOW I'M REMEMBERING HOW BIBLICAL THEY ARE!!!

Dont you think this was also a robbery Also why would they open it ? It was not sealed to be opened also if they did for research why would they take one county’s heritage n treasures to some other country I am against it
@@shahidamazhar7818 at least in this case everyone can admire the precious artifacts. In other tomb cases all of the cont is vanished and nobody apart from thefts known how glorious was the tomb
@@shahidamazhar7818 It is and it isnt. We at least get to uncover the tombs mysteries and see the artifacts and guarantee the preservation. I wish he could have stayed undisturbed for all time but he was going to be found eventually, so at least this way he was found by respectful archeologist that made sure to preserve him and his belongings
@@shahidamazhar7818it's a disrespect so vile.I don't care that they have scientific research to pursue,who in their right minds digs up a dead body for research
I think it's nice to preserve history and answer questions of the past, but makes me feel weird sometimes thinking about how they are disturbing the dead. What if in 3000 years they start digging up our graves? lol
NOT Excavation. Exhumation. the action of digging up something buried, especially a corpse. Excavation would be the opening of the pyramid tomb, not the Sarcophagus and mummy.
@@mikko3 it doesn’t. All the pyramids are pictures of black people you Nut. They are literally in Africa lmao💀 .. You think they were all light skin🤣 They were black and on top of that in the Sun all day lmao. They were black skinned people. Don’t be a fool colonizer.

Some of the items previously belonged to his father, Akhenaten. like the throne which still had Aten as the main deity.
His funeral mask was mainly at first meant to be for a female but they altered it to fit him since he passed away so sudden .
Fascinating! A time long ago a history which will never be erased, people will live and die and most will be forgotten, but not king Tut.

@@manqobamkhwanazi1956bro it was 800bc 💀💀💀 like of course they didn’t see shiii
@@Fin3sse I thought the tombs were guarded
19…. I never knew he died THIS young.
I mean… yes, the mask makes him look maybe mid 20s or so….. but that he actually died so young ….. 😔
Google King Tut
Don't cry
Probably from covid...
So the mask isn't always represent the face of the person whose burried?
*Sorry for grammar mistake
Living upto 19 back then was something good,reaching 30s and 40s was incredible
It's absolutely beautiful
Yes.. that's what I keep repeating " Absolutely Beautiful" 👍🏼💖
A Tomb complex like this is what we should've done when my grandpa and father passed
Ok Kimmy
Always good to see you looking well.
Yes SUPREME leader😂
Decorations were presentable and very Colorful to those Ancient Times. - Egypt
We are here because of simran sahani
😊😊
That mask is just beyond anything I've seen. But the most astonishing thing on my opinion is still his dagger made of meteorite. That's literally the mythic level 99 dagger that only one player found from one dungeon once.
Even if it could be duplicated today which would be extremely difficult and material/ labor intensive.
To the point of being impossible the costs would be staggering and even then pale to the original.
Amazing craftsmanship in funerary arts. Highly symbolic and never intended to be seen by human eyes again.
Imagine if there were no ancient grave robbers in the world. Imagine if location of pharaohs' tombs were kept strictly in secret in a secluded areas. Imagine if those items weren't destined to crumble when they were to be transported to their safekeeping place.
Thousands of thousand of priceless artifacts could be uncovered. We probably could fit a small-ish Egyptian exhibits in every museum in the world if we could.
There's a huge irony in your comment.
So many coffins it did not want to be opened. The utmost highest level of respect, Giving you a chance to turn back each time, But I must say, It is fascinating to see the decorations inlaid on these golden human like coffins, Truly magnificent!
Can you even imagine this happening OMG! Years ago I read the most wonderful novel by Allen Drury called A God Against the Gods about Akenaten and Nefertiti, one of my all time favorite books! I’m going to Cairo in February for a 12 day trip including a Nike cruise and I just can’t wait.
🙏🏽🖤Safe, blessed travels. I would love to hear about it
Is there a reason they are considered under the term Mummy versus the concept they are simply digging up graves?
Mummification was only bestowed on the Pharaohs and other important individuals. Yes it still is only digging up graves/tombs but they are also digging up a lot of ancient history and knowledge.
Egyptians are wholesome 😌 🇮🇶🇪🇬
Great civilisations with their great wonders!
ACTUALL ICE 🥶🥶🥶 Ancient Egyptians weren't playing around
Ancient Egypt is amazing👍
I loved when she say that he is a proof that we are the grondson of ancient Egyptians because tut looks like Egyptians. love you all from Egypt 💓
"Carter" and "Carefully" don't go well with each other..
He in order to open that ruined it all the way breaking it ruthlessly with shivel..
Dude nat geo 2 years back you were the one telling that "Howard Carter's expedition ruined the mummy more than it revealed!" 🤔
It is so wonderful that the tomb was discovered by an Egyptian boy. ❤❤
Brilliantly shown, thank you for the in-depth look into the Tomb of King Tutankhamun 🙏🏽 NatGeo ❤
I was in Egypt 5 months back for 8 days. My interest was mainly to SEE Tuth .l had been studying about Tuth from 1978.Spect aculat and wonderful Egypt.
I just sense that the ancient Egyptians was magical. It was more than just stones and preserving etc. It was mysticism etc the ancient Egyptians seemed very in tune and psychic mystical.
Realising:- The less you reveal…. The More people can wonder✨
I hope they didn't take anything from, A young King should always be there in Egypt where he was born and bury. Never taken out of the country.
Canarvon wanted to take some of the contents back to England for his collection as he had bought the concession to excavate. Theodore Davis who gave up the concession feeling the Valley was worked out, sent material back to America for investigation from earlier finds of Tut-ankh-amun material (some sealed jars with the king's cartouche). Howard Carter, who was much more in tune with Egyptian sensitivities and had even learnt to speak Coptic to be able to converse directly with his workmen, insisted the entire tomb must be kept in Egypt. The king's body still lies in his sarcophagus in the Valley.
You think Egyptians can let that happen? Not in a million years I bet.
@@albertpuppymaster671
Yes in these days we are working hard to return our robbed Artifacts like Nefertiti bust And others hopefully we will return as much as we can
I'm here after our English chapter "discovering tut : the saga continues " of grade 11 , couldn't hold my curiosity to know more n more about it ...
Imagine being a labor worker giving workers water time to time while excavation of the grave and then u suddenly discover the greatest discovery of all time and then someone else takes credit for it
I feel bad for that waterboy who discovered that staircase
Ancient royalty. Fascinating
I was astonished during my visit to see the King Tut's Treasures exhibition.
The fact that every king buried in the valley of the kings got robbed except Tutankhamun's one is very impressiv
I love the fact that they're discovering all good this but unbalancing nature comes with consequences
literally I love learning about Ancient Egypt but they need to leave these people alone.. like you said consequences are so resly
*real
No one should be disturbed after they are put to rest. Sad.
Thanks to Respected NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC.
The museum in Cairo where these artefacts are held is absolutely stunning. The Tutankhamun section is utterly without parallel....the most beautiful and breath-taking antiquities on the planet. Just make sure that the masks etc will be there before you go because they travel the world on tours and exhibitions. One of the things that struck me when I visited was that I was looking at African artefacts...the Pyramids were constructed by Africans, ancient Egyptians were a truly African people. Detach yourself from the current Arabic immigrant population that is modern Egypt and go back in time to ancient North Africa....
@@mikko3 That makes zero sense since ancient Egyptians were besides Egyptian also African.
Detach the Ancient Egyptians from your Afrocentric crab first
The Ancient Egyptians aren’t black Africans they never described Africa ,
2- Modern Day Egyptians are the descendants of Ancient Egyptians they aren’t Arabs just for speaking Arabic and being Muslims
They aren’t immigrants
Color gave it more impact. Thanks.
Truly remarkable discovery!👍
Please leave king Tut and his tomb alone respect king Tut and his tomb please ❤
Today, Egypt is still being ruled by outsiders, like it has been for 200 years at least.
who are these outsiders president Sisi is an egyptian
Ruled by outsiders for the last 2500 years; from the Persians and Assyrians, to the Ptolemies and Macedonians, to the Romans, to the Arabs, to the Mamelukes and Turks, to the French and English.
All of these invasions and colonizations occurred AFTER the fall of a 3500-year dynastic Kemetic civilization, and a probably longer pre-dynastic Kemetic civilization.
These outsiders had nothing to do with Kemet except the demise of its indigenous population.
Egyptians in the pharaonic era were so adavanced , it was incredible, now a days there are just not advanced at all , and it’s is really a shame that such a nation , with such history, went down like this
1:33 is beyond mind boggling...then you see 2:07
just got back from 2 weeks in egypt saw the tut exhibit at cairo museum it was mind blowing
Amazing craftmanship
FASCINATING!!!😮😃👍👍 I'VE BEEN INTRIGUED BY KING TUT'S MUMMY AS WELL AS QUEEN NEFERTITI!!! WELL, THE WHOLE EGYPTIAN ARTWORKS!!! INCREDIBLE WHEN I THINK THESE WERE REAL HUMANS LIVING 2-3000 YEARS AGO IN EGYPT!!! WWOWW!!!😮 I'M GETTING ALL EXCITED BECAUSE NOW I'M REMEMBERING HOW BIBLICAL THEY ARE!!! REMEMBER JOSEPH AND HIS COAT OF MANY COLORS, GIVEN HIM BY HIS FATHER BUT HIS JEALOUS BROTHERS HATED HIM AND... WELL HE ENDED UP BEING SOLD INTO SLAVERY TO THE GREAT PHARAOHS BUT ENDED UP BEING PHARAOHS MOST LOVED AND VALUABLE PERSON!!! I COULD GO ON AND ON BUT THERE'S NOT ENOUGH TIME!!!😂💜💜💜 CAT'CHA LATER!!!😃👍🙋🔥🙏👑➕📖🔥
it's shame that the other tomb is robbed.
Dont you think this was also a robbery
Also why would they open it ? It was not sealed to be opened also if they did for research why would they take one county’s heritage n treasures to some other country
I am against it
@@shahidamazhar7818 at least in this case everyone can admire the precious artifacts. In other tomb cases all of the cont is vanished and nobody apart from thefts known how glorious was the tomb
@@shahidamazhar7818 It is and it isnt. We at least get to uncover the tombs mysteries and see the artifacts and guarantee the preservation. I wish he could have stayed undisturbed for all time but he was going to be found eventually, so at least this way he was found by respectful archeologist that made sure to preserve him and his belongings
@@shahidamazhar7818it's a disrespect so vile.I don't care that they have scientific research to pursue,who in their right minds digs up a dead body for research
@@OAwesomeOyou're just an indecent individual because I certainly don't feel the need to admire peoples belongings
That 3rd coffin screams... "I AM OF THE EXTRAVAGANT ROYAL DESPITE MY YOUNG AGE"... that is another level of rich
I think it's nice to preserve history and answer questions of the past, but makes me feel weird sometimes thinking about how they are disturbing the dead. What if in 3000 years they start digging up our graves? lol
What if ?
He doesnt care anymore, probably was already reborned many times or is just non existing.
3000 years? In 100 years most current graves/cemeteries will be emptied and moved to give space to more dead.
He was only King for ten years?? Some say he did of incurable infection!! Really something to see!🙏💯
amazing🙏🏻👍
Egypt was super advanced for that time in every way. And now... well. Let's say I'll never go back to Cairo.
Rob, steal and damage... This is the stroy of paryamids. They preserved well for centuries but these archeologist damage their tombs
I am proud to say or just happy to say that my mother took me to go see this when I was a little kid I was so amazed amazed at what I saw
His voice got me hooked, and it ended, he ever thought about trying to sell beer lol
So proud to be Egyptian
Does that make you proud? Letting them invade and interfere in your land's own personal treasure and property?
Let me guess you're black right?
I don't remember growing much after 19..
Let's just admit Tut was a little dude.
People do grow, mostly until 21. Well, everyone's body is different
even a few hundred years ago people were much smaller than they are now (men often 1.5 - 1.6 meters). Average body size always changed over time.
I wonder what he would think back then he would be on TH-cam as a mummy? Back then would be amazing.
NOT Excavation. Exhumation. the action of digging up something buried, especially a corpse.
Excavation would be the opening of the pyramid tomb, not the Sarcophagus and mummy.
Thank you ✨
The History of Black People🙏🏽 Love to see it.
@@mikko3 it doesn’t. All the pyramids are pictures of black people you Nut. They are literally in Africa lmao💀 .. You think they were all light skin🤣 They were black and on top of that in the Sun all day lmao. They were black skinned people. Don’t be a fool colonizer.
king tut slippery has a face of black men and he portrayed them different from his color go treat your identity crisis
Literally amazing.
King Tut was truly the first "Russian Nesting Doll".
🤣
You’re degrading it by comparing it to a toy.
💜
Instead he's an African nesting doll
