15. For the moment - an eternity it must have seemed to the others standing by - I was struck dumb with amazement, and when Lord Carnarvon, unable to stand the suspense any longer, inquired anxiously, 'Can you see anything?' it was all I could do to get out the words, 'Yes, wonderful things.' Then widening the hole a little further, so that we both could see, we inserted an electric torch."

16. The Valley of the Kings Is where King Tutankhamen (Tut) is buried
His Tomb was discovered in 1922 by Howard Carter
This tomb was not disturbed, thus King Tut’s treasures have taught us much about Egyptian burial practices and beliefs.
