Inside a small wooden chest made from ebony and cedar, Carter and his team ( who discovered the tomb) found a gold-plated leopard head
A gorgeous pair of ceremonial objects known as the pharaoh’s crook and flail, always depicted as held across his chest
Among the ancient textiles found in the tomb were 100 sandals, 12 tunics, 28 gloves, 25 head coverings and four socks.
During the mummification process, Egyptian embalmers carefully removed the lungs, liver, intestines and stomach from the body, embalmed the organs, and placed them in vessels called Canopic jars.
The final resting place for King Tut’s organs was one of the most exquisite objects in the entire tomb
The 22-pound, solid-gold mask rested directly on the head and shoulders of King Tut’s mummy, and portrayed the handsome young king as Osiris, complete with the pharaonic false beard.
