Tutankhamen's tomb is not the grandest tomb in Egypt, and was certainly not
occupied by one of Egypt's most powerful . But in general the population of the
world know the tomb of Tutankhamen better than any other, because of
all the royal tombs, it was found mostly intact. What was found in this tomb surely gives us pause to
understand the motive behind ancient tomb robberies. If such a vast fortune in
treasure. It the only pharaoh tomb, that is complete intact for about
3300 years. It's also the most gorgeous mausoleum in Egypt.(互動百科)

There
are more than 60 tomb was thief. But the archaeologists believe that
there still a tomb has never be found. (拜占庭雲雀)
And that tomb is Tutankhamen's. In 1922, the archaeologists Howard
Carter, after 8 year trying. He found the entrance of the grave by
accident. Which is filled with golden funerary goods, and Tutankhamen's tombs. There is a mommy inside the tombs, with a golden
mask on his face. It a sensational event in the wold at that time.(purples)
How did they find it?
There is a young artists name Howard Carter and George Carnarvon, the man who has a serious accident because of driving too fast. They met each other and they soon became friends. Because of the culture center. Then they start to woke together, and find out the tomb that haven't be found in King Valley.(purples)
10 year pass. They only found few things. Some golden flakes, one ceramic cup, few watts bottles,and clay seal. They are non things about Tutankhamen. Howard and Carnarvon almost desperate. (King Out One ) 1922.11.4 morning, one worker find out there is something wrong with the ground, he can't put the pipes under the ground. After cleaning, they find out there is a stone stairs leading to the ground, and at the ground, there is a closing-plaster wall. At the top of the plaster wall has a name call Tutankhamen, that they have never ever seen before. (purples) (King Out One ) ( Jennifer)
Carter and workers spend two days to clean out the door and stairs. At the back of the door is a ramps, it filled with gravel. The end of the ramps has a door, that same like the first door, block by a wall, have the same carving on it. November 26, they finish cleaning the gravel. Carter move way they second door with his tremble hands, and put a candle in side the hole. At first, the heat in the cave makes the candlelight flickering. Then it start show the animals images, everywhere is spangle. At that moment Carter was shock. There are filled with kind of things.

Who
is Tutankhamen?
Tutankhamen's father was famous King Akhenaten, Akhenaten's wife was Nefertiti, the famous girl meaning”internal beauty” , she has a slender neck and elongated head with crown the beautiful statue in the Berlin Museum , known as the "Berlin 's most beautiful woman ." but Tutankhamun wasn't Nefertiti's son. His mother died when he was childhood, and his father died when he was eight. So he become the king (拜占庭雲雀) He's to young to handle the political affairs, so it actually other adults call the shots. Akhenaten abandoned the Egypt god that they have believe for thousand of years, and convert only the sun god Aton.(The first time in the history of monotheism.) when he was the king of Egypt.(互動百科) He also moved the capital city to the capital of Amana, where to build a new place and the Temple of the Sun God. But soon he died. Everyone was terrified. They thought that the God must be angry about change the believe. So they forced the eight years old's Tutankhamen, move the capital back to the original place, and to restore the worship of many God. Because of his father, Tutankhamen needs to change his original name Tutankhamen to Tutankhamen. (拜占庭雲雀)

He quickly be arranged to marry with his half-sister. They have great relationship. When he was 11, marry his half sister Anchesisi become the king. Although they marry young, but they are emotional stability. They love each other really much. And they have the twin baby, but didn't born.(sina) But the sad thing happen. Tutankhamen died when he was eighteen. According to X-ray, shows that he died because of pounding brain. Scholars infer that his prime minister assassination him.(purples) (互動百科) Cause when he died his prime minister marry his wife for getting the power, and after that he kill his wife. Because he died suddenly, there is no tombs for him. They put him to the tombs used to give to the officials. The grave was too small enough to escape the tomb's eyes.(拜占庭雲雀)
At
his tombs there is a dog name Anubis. Anubis is the dog that set on
the golden cabinet, saving the king's visceral cans. Visceral cans
were guarded by four goddesses in different parts of the organ, in
this tomb have found two girls embryos bag in three small humanoid
coffin, think later DNA test is two love crystal.(purples) (互動百科)
How does it look like now?
1922, found out Tutankhamen's tomb. Everything in the tomb have not be steal. So most of the things move to museum. Only left three coffin, and Tutankhamen. The coffin still save completely. It's because of the dry weather.(拜占庭雲雀)

What
will it look like in future?
Future visitors to the tomb will have to be content with paying to see a carefully-crafted replica although Egyptian authorities have yet to make a decision on when that might be. I think year after year there will be something change. Maybe letting people go inside will destroy the original things. Cause people walking inside, that doesn't happen before. The tomb can be saving complete, but know people are walking and talking inside. I think because of that there will be something change.(TRAVELMAIL REPORTER)
