The Tomb of Tutankhamun: Volume 3
Bloomsbury Academic (Verlag)
978-1-4725-7777-1 (ISBN)
After the long search for the tomb and its initial discovery and excavation (volume 1), after the discovery of the king’s resting place and body (volume 2), the third and final volume of Howard Carter’s account sees him reach the treasury, full of the incredible riches that the Pharaoh had sort to take with him to the world beyond and which had seemed lost to time before Carter’s historic discovery. Now available in the Bloomsbury Revelations series, the book includes over 150 photographs of the treasury and its contents.
Howard Carter (1874-1939) was an artist and archaeologist, best known for his discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamun.
