The Egyptian gold mask was worn by the Egyptian Pharaoh Tutankhamun after his death in14th century BC and was found in his mausoleum. When his mummy was excavated, he wore a golden mask on his head, which made him the most famous Egyptian Pharaoh known today. This mask is the size of a real person's face and just covers his face.
The mask is made of gold foil, inlaid with precious stones and colored glass. The forehead is decorated with the eagle god and cobra god, symbolizing upper and lower Egypt (the eagle is the protector in upper Egypt and the snake god in lower Egypt); The beard hangs down below, symbolizing the ghost Osiris. Masks are one of the most exquisite art treasures in the world.
When Tutankhamun's tomb was opened, Carter's favorite canary was eaten by a python. Carter's collaborator Count Carnaveen 1933 died of an unknown disease caused by mosquito bites on April 23rd. During the ten-year grave robbery, more than 20 people related to grave robbery died of illness or even insanity. Whether these strange deaths have anything to do with. No one dares to assert the Pharaoh's curse.
In the deepest part of the National Museum of Egypt, there are quietly hidden Egyptian national treasures: the golden colossus of Tutankhamun and the golden coffin. Their owner died young more than 3300 years ago. Fortunately, his tomb was not ransacked and destroyed like other pharaohs, which made this pharaoh who died mysteriously at the age of 10 and 19 become the most famous one today.
