In ancient Egypt, pharaohs were both kings and arbiters between the land of the living and the dead. Pharaohs had a great deal of responsibility, as they oversaw both the physical and spiritual well-being of their people. Upon death, they were transported to lavish tombs that were meant to facilitate their journey through the underworld to the afterlife.

History

Considered by many to be the greatest archeological discovery in history, Howard Carters historic find has shed valuable light on the history of the ancient Egyptians. Though for many, the real allure of the discovery was the iconic death mask of King Tut as well as the 5000 treasures surrounding his coffin. The Grand Egyptian Museum is scheduled to open in late 2022 and will feature the entire Tutankhamun collection under one roof for the first time in history.
