Description

Tutankhamun: Time Capsule is an essential introduction to Egyptian history. It is a powerful, original, and important way to prepare both your eyes for the sights and your mind for insights as you are introduced to the time capsule of King Tutankhamun's treasures. The world was stunned when the only untouched tomb of an Egyptian pharaoh/king was finally discovered, after years of searching, in November 1922.

Discover exactly what it was like the day Howard Carter knew he had uncovered the first steps down to the doorway of the tomb. What would you do first if you were in charge? Young King Tut served from about age nine to nineteen, and you can begin to understand what it would be like to be so powerful so young. Discover how pictures of his private life compare with the images portraying him as a highly powerful public leader. Which are more true-to-life?

Take the checklist test to determine your assessment of the value of each. With this unique Egyptian history book you will have unearthed your own historical treasure.
