Produktbeschreibung

In 1922, a sealed doorway deep within the Valley of the Kings changed the world's understanding of ancient Egypt forever. Treasures Beneath Eternal Sand offers beginners a clear, reference-style look at the discovery of King Tutankhamun's tomb-one of the most astonishing archaeological breakthroughs of all time. Structured for easy exploration, this guide walks readers through the expedition led by Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon, explaining the methods, tools, and techniques used to uncover the long-hidden chambers. It presents the facts behind the excavation: how the tomb was located, the challenges of working in tight, fragile spaces, the cataloging of thousands of artifacts, and the unparalleled moment when Carter first peered inside the golden-lit antechamber. The book also breaks down the significance of key objects-Tut's funerary mask, chariots, jewelry, shrines-and explains what they reveal about royal life, burial rituals, and craftsmanship in the New Kingdom. Each section provides crisp, beginner-friendly reference material enriched with historical context. A perfect starting point for readers new to archaeology, this guide brings clarity, structure, and excitement to one of history's most iconic discoveries.
