Tutankhamun

On visit to Cairo in December 2015 I made a trip to the Museum and to the Pyramids on the outskirts of the city. I was lucky to be able to see King Tut's mask which has been restored and was opened for public display PLUS we were allowed to take pictures in the museum !!

More than almost any other ancient ruler, facts about King Tut, the boy who led an empire and was buried in a tomb stuffed with gold and artifacts, have been ...

The innermost coffin of Tutankhamun is considered one of the most iconic and well-preserved artifacts discovered in the tomb of Tutankhamun.

Egyptian pharaohs were sometimes depicted as having a serpent called the Uraeus extending from their third eye, which may have represented a focused beam of etheric energy emitting from that region, as happens in cases of strong psychic activation.

This coffin of solid gold is covered with incised decorations and inscriptions inside and outside, with the names and epitaph of the deceased king and protective texts. It is inlaid with semiprecious stones and colored glass. The coffin’s shape is that of Osiris holding the sacred insignia, the heka scepter and the flail. The vulture and the uraeus, or rearing cobra, protect his forehead. The divine beard is made of gold inlaid with blue glass. Deities of Upper and Lower Egypt protect.
