Come along for the chilling tale of a mummy's curse. Find all of our wonderful links on the linktree: https://linktr.ee/allts The "curse of King Tut" is a captivating tale that has woven itself into the fabric of Egyptian archaeological lore. It centers around the alleged misfortunes that befell those involved in the discovery of Pharaoh Tutankhamun's tomb in 1922. Here's a look at the narrative: The Discovery and Early Events: When Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon opened the tomb, it was a momentous occasion. However, soon after, a series of unsettling events began to occur. Lord Carnarvon's untimely death, just months after the tomb's opening, fueled the burgeoning belief in a pharaoh's curse. Reports of other individuals associated with the excavation experiencing sudden illnesses, accidents, and even deaths further solidified the notion of a supernatural force at work. The Spread of the Legend: The media played a significant role in amplifying the stories, creating a widespread sense of mystery and fear. The idea of an ancient Egyptian curse, protecting the pharaoh's resting place, captured the public's imagination. The Nature of the "Curse": Some accounts suggest that the curse was a direct act of vengeance by King Tutankhamun, while others propose that it was a more general manifestation of ancient Egyptian magic. There are also those who believe that ancient Egyptian priests put some form of protection on the tomb. Essentially, the "curse of King Tut" is a narrative that blends historical events with elements of mystery and the supernatural, creating a compelling and enduring legend.
What does it take to make the (arguably) greatest archaeological discovery of all time? Grit. Tenacity. Patience.

History Of Egypt, Chaldæa, Syria, Babylonia, and Assyria is the masterwork of one of the fathers of modern egyptology. This work, in twelve volumes, was translated from the French original, “Histoire ancienne des peuples de l'Orient classique” and published in 1903-1904. Maspero was a largely self-taught master of hieroglyphic translation. In November 1880, he was placed at the head of a French archeological mission, which developed later into the Institut Français d'Archéologie Orientale. Maspero then succeeded Mariette as director-general of excavations and of the antiquities of Egypt.“Aware that his reputation was then more as a linguist than an archaeologist, Maspero's first work in the post was to build on Mariette's achievements at Saqqara. He expanded their scope from the early Old Kingdom to the later, with particular interest in tombs with long and complete hieroglyphic inscriptions that could help illustrate the development of the Egyptian language. Selecting five later Old Kingdom tombs, he was successful in that aim, finding over 4000 lines of hieroglyphics which were then sketched and photographed.“As an aspect of his attempt to curtail the rampant illegal export of Egyptian antiquities by tourists, collectors and agents for the major European and American museums, Maspero arrested the Abd al-Russul brothers from the notorious treasure-hunting village of Gorna, who confessed under torture to having found the great cache of royal mummies at Deir el-Bahri in July 1881. The cache was moved to Cairo as soon as possible to keep it safe from robbers.“In 1886 he resumed work begun by Mariette to uncover the Sphinx, removing more than 65 feet of sand and seeking tombs below it (which he did not find, but have later been found but not opened).”Maspero went on to sponsor and expand the system of national museums and presided over the growing collection of the Bulak Museum. Maspero gave a 17 year old Howard Carter his first Egyptological job – and it was he who recommended Carter to Lord Carnarvon. Carter and Carnarvon would go on to discover the tomb of King Tutankhaman.In the first volume of this master work, Maspero tackles the importance of the Nile, the pantheon of Egyptian gods, and the legendary history of Egyptian gods.

Le 6 novembre 1922, un télégramme bouleverse le monde de l'égyptologie : Howard Carter annonce à son mécène, Lord Carnarvon, la découverte d'une tombe royale inviolée dans la Vallée des Rois. Après dix ans de recherches acharnées, les deux hommes ont enfin mis au jour le tombeau de Toutankhamon. L'excitation est à son comble, mais la joie de cette découverte sera rapidement assombrie par une série d'événements tragiques. Moins d'un an plus tard, Lord Carnarvon décède dans des circonstances mystérieuses, une morsure d'insecte infectée ayant entraîné une septicémie. La presse s'empare de l'affaire et répand la rumeur d'une malédiction lancée par le pharaon troublé dans sa dernière demeure. Au cours des années suivantes, 27 personnes liées de près ou de loin à la découverte de la tombe trouveront la mort, alimentant la légende. Bien que de nombreuses études aient démontré l'absence de preuves scientifiques corroborant l'existence d'une telle malédiction, le mystère demeure entier et continue de fasciner les amateurs d'égyptologie et les férus de l'occulte.

On November 26, 1922, British archaeologist Howard Carter and his financier Lord Carnarvon, after years of searching, finally discovered the burial chamber of the young pharaoh Tutankhamun who ruled 1332 – 1323 B.C. during the late Eighteenth Dynasty of ancient Egypt. Unearthing the most well-preserved tomb in Egypt's Valley of the Kings, Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon became instant world-wide celebrities overnight, but all would not be well for long... Soon after opening Tutankhamun's tomb, several people who either entered his tomb, handled his artifacts or who were involved with the excavation of his tomb, began to die of rather strange circumstances... Were these unfortunate deaths the result of circumstantial coincidences or that of an ancient deadly curse?

On November 26, 1922, Howard Carter prepared to enter the tomb of a little-known pharaoh. Nobody had set foot inside the space for over 3,000 years, but as Carter held up his candle, his partner, Lord Carnarvon who had financed the expedition called out asking if he saw anything. Carter responded, “Yes, wonderful things.” Though his reign may have been short, the treasures found in Tutankhamun's tomb have given him an outsized place in the history books and popular culture.

La «maledizione del faraone» è la spiegazione data a una serie di morti più o meno improvvise che colpirono il gruppo di lavoro di Howard Carter alla scoperta della tomba di Tut-ench-Amun nel 1922.Il primo a morire fu Lord Carnarvon, amico e finanziatore del giovane egittologo e quando muore, il 6 aprile 1923, si parla già di una punizione inflitta direttamente dal faraone, disturbato nel suo sonno.La maledizione del faraone è l'esempio perfetto che dimostra quanto siamo suscettibili a credere alle storie, sopratutto se trovano sempre una spiegazione a tutto
6 novembre 1922. Il est à peu près 10 heures lorsque Lord Carnarvon reçoit un télégramme pour le moins surprenant. Confortablement installé dans le bureau de son somptueux manoir anglais, il s'allume une cigarette avant de lire ces quelques mots : « Merveilleuse découverte dans la Vallée. Tombe superbe avec sceaux intacts. Attends votre arrivée pour ouvrir. Félicitations. H.C ». Si ces phrases abruptes peuvent sembler cryptiques pour le commun des mortels, Lord Carnarvon, lui, sait très bien de quoi il s'agit. Ce fameux « H.C », ce n'est autre qu'Howard Carter, son ami égyptologue, comme lui. Depuis une dizaine d'années, tous deux se sont mis en tête de découvrir la tombe du pharaon égyptien Toutankhamon. Se pourrait-il que ce soit justement « la merveilleuse découverte » d'Howard Carter ? Ni une, ni deux, Lord Carnarvon remplit son bagage en cuir de quelques vêtements, avant de quitter la Grande Bretagne pour se précipiter en Égypte. Plus précisément à Louxor, où son ami archéologue l'attend. Ce qu'il ne sait pas encore, c'est que la découverte du tombeau de Toutankhamon va emmener avec elle son lot de malheurs… jusqu'à devenir une véritable malédiction qui va frapper toutes celles et ceux qui s'en approcheraient d'un peu trop près. Il est 10h et c'est l'heure H de mon histoire.

En especial para este verano les presentamos un episodio que nos han solicitado mucho, la historia del descubrimiento de la tumba y la maldicón de Tutankamón. Todo comenzó en 1892 cuando, todavía adolescente, el británico Howard Carter llegó a Egipto para trabajar como dibujante de los artefactos que con frecuencia eran encontrados en las numerosas excavaciones arqueológicas que se llevaban a cabo en diferentes partes del país. En 1907, Carter empezó a trabajar para el Conde de Carnarvon, mejor conocido como Lord Carnarvon, un noble inglés, rico y aficionado a la arqueología a quien debido a su mala salud, los médicos habían recomendado pasara más tiempo en el calor seco del país africano . En 1914, el Conde logró obtener el permiso oficial para excavar en el Valle de los Reyes y Howard Carter recibió la misión de encontrar la tumba de algún noble hasta entonces no descubierta. Aquí empieza esta historia la cual a más de 100 años todavía no se termina de escribir. Escúchenla y disfruten...

Le 26 novembre 1922 l'archéologue Howard Carter et son commanditaire Lord Carnarvon entraient pour la toute première fois dans le tombeau intacte d'un pharaon. L'événement était historique; pour la première fois la tombe d'un pharaon était découverte encore scellée et intacte sans que des pillards soient venu la vider. Pour la première fois depuis plus de 3000 ans quelqu'un entrait dans la tombe de Toutankhamon, pharaon qui aura régné environ 10 ans sur l'Égypte et décédé très jeune à l'âge de 19 ans.Dès les mois qui suivent l'ouverture de la crypte mortuaire des décès surviennent dans l'équipe qui a dérangée le repos éternel du pharaon.La légende de la malédiction de la momie était née. Une légende qui est encore très présente dans notre culture populaire. On vous emmène en voyage aujourd'hui jusqu'en Égypte pour découvrir cette fascinante histoire!

All'1:55 del 4 aprile 1923, tutte le luci del Cairo, la capitale dell'Egitto, si spensero. Nello stesso preciso momento, Lord Carnarvon, un aristocratico inglese, morì di polmonite. Era stato il finanziatore di una delle più celebrate caccie al tesoro di tutti i tempi, la ricerca della tomba del faraone-fanciullo Tutankhamon. La sua morte diede inizio alla leggenda della maledizione dei faraoni che, secondo alcuni, avrebbe portato alla morte tutti coloro che disturbarono il sonno del faraone.

El 4 de noviembre se cumplieron 100 años del descubrimiento de la tumba del faraón egipcio Tutankamón, uno de los mayores hallazgos arqueológicos de todos los tiempos. En noviembre de 1922, después de seis temporadas de excavaciones infructuosas, el arqueólogo británico Howard Carter, su equipo egipcio y un mecenas británico, Lord Carnarvon, descubrieron la sepultura intacta de Tutankamón en el Valle de los Reyes, en el Alto Egipto. En el lugar se encontró también un tesoro funerario de 4.500 objetos, como muebles, joyas y estatuillas, repartidos en las cinco habitaciones del panteón. La tumba del joven faraón, que murió a los 19 años -aproximadamente en 1324 A.C.-, es el único mausoleo del antiguo Egipto que presenta un tesoro de tal magnitud. Las sepulturas de faraones y de personajes importantes descubiertas hasta entonces habían sido saqueadas a lo largo de los milenios. El hallazgo dio pie a un furor por lo egipcio, que se plasmó en diferentes productos culturales, como novelas y películas de momias.

In November of 1922, 100 years ago, Howard Carter, Lord Carnarvon and a team made the biggest discovery in Egyptian history in years. They found the tomb of King Tutankhamun, but the happiest was short lived. After the excavation of the child pharaoh's tomb, mysterious things started happening to some of the people involved. Could this have been the “ Curse of the Pharaoh's” or just a coincidence??

In November of 1922, British archaeologist Howard Carter, thanks to benefactor Lord Carnarvon, discovered the untouched tomb of Tutankhamun. Otherwise erased from history, the tomb of this 18th Dynasty Pharaoh would go on to change the world. Undoubtedly cited as one of the greatest archaeological finds in human history, do we really know what happened in November 1922? Or is there more to the story?In the second episode of our Tutankhamun series, Tristan is joined by Egyptologist and author Bob Brier a.k.a. “Mr Mummy”. Together they tell us the details of this groundbreaking discovery, and help illuminate the missing characters. How did Howard Carter stumble across a world changing archaeological find - and was it worth the breakdown in diplomatic relations that followed?Content Warning: This episode contains references to miscarriages that some listeners may find upsetting.For more Ancients content, subscribe to our Ancients newsletter here.

Esta semana se han cumplido 100 años del descubrimiento de la tumba del faraón Tutankamon y analizamos su repercusión en la Tertulia de ChicosEl 4 de noviembre de 1922 un grupo de trabajadores trabajaba bajo el sol egipcio. Están en medio del Valle de los Reyes. Trabajan desde hace tiempo en busca de una tumba. Esta expedición la financia un noble inglés entusiasta de la arqueología, Lord Carnarvon. Colabora desde hace varios años con un apasionado egiptólogo y arqueólogo, Howard Carter. Tras varias expediciones, y mucho dinero invertido, Lord Carnarvon empieza a ponerse nervioso. Llevan ocho años buscando una tumba egipcia y todavía no hay resultados. Por eso, ese 4 de noviembre de 1922 fue tan importante. El arduo trabajo, pero también el azar, revelaron ese día un tesoro que llevaba más de 2.000 años oculto bajo la arena del Valle de los Reyes. El enterramiento intacto de un joven faraón. Su nombre era Tutankamon. José Miguel Gaona, José Manuel Aguilar y la presidenta de la Asociación Española de Egiptología, Rosa Pujol, analizan en Fin de Semana por qué la cultura egipcia causa tanta fascinación miles de años después de su desaparición. “La cultura egipcia fue un icono pop” recuerda el psicólogo José Miguel Aguilar. Rosa Pujol relataba que “es el descubrimiento arqueológico más importante de los tiempos modernos. En esa tumba pudimos...
The theme of our recent Highclere Festival was the path to the discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamun. It is an extraordinary tale of two unconventional men, Lord Carnarvon and Howard Carter, neither of whom had studied archaeology at university but both of whom, through experience and passion, found the most extraordinary tomb of a Pharaoh. It's the subject of my new book 'The Earl and the Pharaoh'. Joining us over the festival weekend to help further our understanding was egyptologist Professor Joann Fletcher - I couldn't resist luring her away to talk to her for my podcast!
Le lieu de repos du légendaire pharaon Toutankhamon est sans l'ombre d'un doute le tombeau le plus connu d'Égypte. Construit il y a des milliers d'années et recherché par les archéologues occidentaux durant plus d'un siècle, il provoque dès son ouverture un soulèvement de l'opinion publique, libérant à la manière de la boîte de Pandore des histoires de malédictions et d'empoisonnement. Retraçons ensemble l'histoire de sa découverte et des événements qui ont suivi.
When Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon set out for Egypt's Valley of the Kings, they hoped to uncover secret tombs, lost in the sand. In 1922, their expedition succeeded — making history with a life-changing discovery. Then the untimely deaths began, and a rumor spread of a dark curse, unleashed by the trespassers.

26. novembra 1922 nadišiel deň D. Nebol to len kľúčový deň v živote Howarda Cartera, ale aj v dejinách celej egyptológie. Keď sa Carter spolu so svojim podporovateľom a mecenášom Lordom Carnarvonom prekopali k druhým zapečateným dverám Tutanchamónovej hrobky v Údolí kráľov, urobil v rohu odhalenej steny malý otvor a vo svite malej sviečky sa mu odhalilo nesmierne bohatstvo. Všade sa lesklo zlato a keď sa ho Lord Carnarvon spýtal či niečo vidí, zmohol sa len na jednu a dnes už okrídlenú vetu: „Áno, vidím úžasné veci.“ Takto a či trochu inak sa zvykne opisovať onen slávny moment, keď sa na svetlo sveta opäť dostali poklady slávnej hrobky faraóna Tutanchamóna. Až dovtedy sa o tomto mladom egyptskom panovníkovi veľa nevedelo. Koniec-koncov, vládol príliš krátko, nevyznamenal sa ani žiadnymi vojenskými úspechmi, štátnickými rozhodnutiami či veľkými stavebnými projektmi. Skrátka, nesmrteľným sa stal len vďaka tomu, že jeho hrobka zostala po viac než tri tisícročia bokom, uchránená od zvedavosti vykrádačov. Mohla tak vydať dôležité svedectvo o dobe a živote starovekého Egypta. Odvtedy sa Tutanchamón stal pre bežného človeka synonymom egyptskej civilizácie a fascinujúcou vstupenkou do vzdialenej ľudskej epochy. Čo všetko sa v hrobke nachádzalo? Kto bol samotný faraón Tutanchamón a v akej dobe vlastne žil?

It is often thought that the story of Tutankhamun ended when the thousands of items discovered by Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon were transported to the Egyptian Museum in Cairo and put on display. But there is far more to Tutankhamun's story. Tutankhamun and the Tomb that Changed the World (Oxford UP, 2022) explores the 100 years of research on Tutankhamun that has taken place since the tomb's discovery: we learn that several objects in the tomb were made of meteoritic iron that came from outer space; new evidence shows that Tutankhamun may have been a warrior who went into battle; and author Bob Brier takes readers behind the scenes of the recent CAT-scanning of his mummy to reveal secrets of the pharaoh. The book also illustrates the wide-ranging impact the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb had on fields beyond Egyptology. Included is an examination of how the discovery of the tomb influenced Egyptian politics and contributed to the downfall of colonialism in Egypt. Outside Egypt, the modern blockbuster exhibitions that raise great sums of monies for museums around the world all began with Tutankhamun, as did the idea of documenting every object discovered in place, before it was moved. And to a great extent, the modern fascination with ancient Egypt--Egyptomania--was also greatly promoted by the Tutmania that surrounded the discovery of the tomb. Learn more about your ad choices.

Academia de los nocturnos 2x01 Si miramos a través de la cerradura de la puerta de nuestra academia, bien podríamos pronunciar aquellas famosas palabras que dijo Howard Carter a Lord Carnarvon ante la tumba de Tutankamón: “Veo cosas maravillosas”. Y es que han sido 14 los académicos y académicas que nos han honrado con su presencia en el programa en la primera temporada, con quienes hemos disfrutado y aprendido cada miércoles. Mitología, espiritismo, brujas, vampiros, alquimia, son sólo algunos de los temas que hemos tratado en el programa. Esta noche iniciamos nuestra segunda temporada con la misma ilusión y ganas, y recibimos a otro académico de lujo, Manuel Carballal, quien nos hablará de las actuaciones policiales en casos insólitos, como poltergeist o avistamientos OVNI. ¿Están preparados policías o guardias civiles para hacer frente a lo imposible? Manuel nos contará un montón de experiencias y anécdotas sobre sus investigaciones. esperamos que disfrutéis el programa tanto como nosotros. ¿Estáis preparados para la segunda temporada? Comenzamos.

Lunedì 29 agosto con le Donne al Volante, Liliana Russo e Katia De Rossi, è intervenuta la giornalista di Focus Storia Maria Leonarda Leone. Nel suo contributo, la giornalista parla della scoperta più sensazionale del XX secolo: la tomba di Tutankhamon. L'archeologo che la portò alla luce fu Howard Carter, finanziato dal Lord Carnarvon. La scoperta fu casuale, dopo sette anni di scavi vani e all'ultima licenza di scavo concessa da Carnarvon, emerse un gradino di pietra sotto le sabbie del deserto.IL FARAONE PIÙ FAMOSO – Tutankhamon è ancora oggi il sovrano dell'Antico Egitto più celebre e ormai entrato nella cultura pop. Questo si deve al fatto che la sua tomba fu l'unica a non essere saccheggiata dai profanatori dell'epoca. Furono infatti ritrovati più di 5 mila reperti intatti, da cui è stato possibile ricavare informazioni sulla vita del faraone, sulla vita quotidiana dell'epoca e del modo di celebrare i funerali.

On 26 November 1922 Howard Carter gazed into the darkness of a newly-discovered tomb in the Valley of the Kings in Egypt. Can you see anything? Lord Carnarvon, his companion and sponsor asked him. ‘Yes,' Carter replied, ‘wonderful things.' * This year marks the centenary of perhaps the greatest archaeological discovery in history. At the end of 1922, the world was astonished by the news from Thebes in Egypt. After years of searching, a discovery of the most extraordinary nature was made in the Valley of the Kings. In this episode, the renowned Egyptologist and scholar Toby Wilkinson takes us back to a story that is still as magnetic and magical as ever: the Discovery of Tutankhamun's Tomb. As ever, there is much more about this episode on our website: tttpodcast.com Toby Wilkinson's new book, Tutankhamun's Trumpet: the story of Ancient Egypt in 100 Objects has just been released in hardback by Picador. Show notes Scene One: The summer of 1922, Highclere Castle. Howard Carter visits Lord Carnarvon. Scene Two: 4 November 1922. The Valley of the Kings. The discovery of the first step.

In this episode I'm joined by Dr Eleanor Dobson, who researches into the reception of ancient Egypt during the 19th and 20th centuries. We discuss the centenary of Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon's discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb in 1922, and the stories around the famous 'curses'. We consider what 19th and 20th century Egyptologists were reading, and how they wrote their own stories. We consider how perceptions of the curses developed or changed in the 19th century onwards, and how ancient Egypt and curses are represented in 20th and 21st century films. About my guest: Dr Eleanor Dobson is Associate Professor of Nineteenth-Century Literature at the University of Birmingham. Her first book, Writing the Sphinx: Literature, Culture and Egyptology came out with Edinburgh University Press in 2020, and her second book, Victorian Alchemy: Science, Magic and Ancient Egypt, is out with UCL Press later this yearFor more information on Ellie's work, check out the details below:Check out Ellie's suggestions:The Extraordinary Adventures of Adèle Blanc-Sec (2010 movie)Louisa May Alcott - Lost in a Pyramid, or the Mummy's CurseEpisode Credits:Episode Writer, Editor and Producer: Emma CatanMusic: Burning Steaks (by Stationary Sign) - obtained via EpidemicSoundCheck us out at the following social media pages and websites!Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/victorianlegaciespodcastTwitter: @victorianlegac1Instagram: @victorianlegaciespodcastWebsite: https://emmacatan.wordpress.com/victorian-legacies-podcast/Email: victorianlegacies@gmail.com
José María Zavala, periodista, escritor, director y académico del cine español, cuenta en Fin de Semana con Cristina lo que se esconde tras una leyenda negra muy famosaJosé María Zavala, periodista, escritor, director y académico del cine español, vuelve a ‘La Esquina del Misterio' para contar que “el arqueólogo y egiptólogo británico Howard Carter (1874-1939) jamás olvidó el descubrimiento de su vida: la tumba del faraón Tutankamón, el 26 de noviembre de 1922, en lo más profundo de las entrañas del Valle de los Reyes, frente a Luxor, en el alto Nilo. Cinco meses después de uno de los descubrimientos arqueológicos más sensacionales de los tiempos modernos, el mecenas de la expedición, Lord Carnarvon, falleció en el hotel Continental de El Cairo. Era la noche del 4 de abril de 1923. Mi amigo el doctor Roberto Pelta, un experto en venenos de todo tipo, corrobora hoy la verdadera causa de la misteriosa muerte: ‘Una erisipela provocada por la picadura de un mosquito, que desembocó en septicemia y neumonía'”. “Aseguran incluso que durante la autopsia de la momia del faraón se localizó una herida justo en el mismo lugar donde el mosquito había picado al hombre que financió la expedición”, relata Zavala, que añade que “la cadena de muertes prosiguió en septiembre con la de su hermano Aubrey Herbert, que estuvo presente en el momento cumbre de la...

En esta ocasión nuestro director Alberto Hernández se auto invita para hablar del mítico faraón Tutankamón, alguien que reinó siendo muy jóven y que también tuvo una muerte prematura. Su figura está rodeada de leyendas y esta noche conoceremos algunos datos casi olvidados y también haremos un repaso por lo sucedido cuando Howard Carter y Lord Carnarvon penetraron en la cámara mortuoria en 1922, desde ese momento se habló de la maldición del faraón. En el inicio escucharemos los resultados de la encuestra de Milarca, ¿Creen nuestros oyentes en la reencarnación?. A continuación Alberto y Alex El Kowalsky abren el kiosko de HDN para hablar sobre las noticias más llamativas de la semana : Una extraña foto obtenida en Irlanda, La pelea de dos hermanos por una montaña mágica en Catalunya y el espionaje de grandes compañías a través del micrófono de nuestros teléfonos móviles. En la parte final Valeria Surcis en "El Punto Giallo" nos habla de El Círculo de Canter, una técnica de perfilación criminal muy utilizada y de gran importancia.

Jamie and Matt have honor of speaking with Lord Carnarvon from Highclere Castle to get the insights into the botanicals and oats used in the baskets to create Highclere Castle Gin. Adam Von Gootkin and Lord Carnarvon have been able to craft a unique award winning gin. We find out how this partnership began and get some hints as to what is next. Something amazing is the chance to connect with the innovative crowd sharing project where you can buy into the next steps Highclere Castle Gin takes.

Curses and Controversies. From the moment they announced their discovery, Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon were faced with overwhelming attention. How they responded, and how they chose to approach the excavation, would have a major impact on public perception of the tomb.

Le lieu de repos du légendaire pharaon Toutankhamon est sans l'ombre d'un doute le tombeau le plus connu d'Égypte. Construit il y a des milliers d'années et recherché par les archéologues occidentaux durant plus d'un siècle, il provoque dès son ouverture un soulèvement de l'opinion publique, libérant à la manière de la boîte de Pandore des histoires de malédictions et d'empoisonnement. Retraçons ensemble l'histoire de sa découverte et des événements qui ont suivi.

The discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb in Egypt's Valley of the Kings almost a century ago revolutionized the study of ancient Egypt and its pharaohs. The splendors that surrounded the burial of this relatively minor ruler, interred in a hastily arranged tomb, sparked a furor of speculation, scholarship, and outright chicanery and draw crowds even today. For a long time, though, no one knew that the first modern person to enter the tomb was not Howard Carter, the famed archaeologist who located it, but Lady Evelyn (Eve) Herbert, the twenty-one-year-old daughter of Lord Carnarvon, who funded Carter's expedition. In The Collector's Daughter (William Morrow, 2021), Gill Paul approaches the story of Carter's discovery from the perspective of its long-term effects on those involved in the find. We meet Eve first in 1972, fifty years after these life-changing events, when she has just awoken in a hospital after suffering the latest in a series of strokes that sap her physical and mental strength. She barely recognizes the man sitting next to her, although she soon concludes (correctly) that he is her husband, Brograve. As Eve fights her way back to health, Brograve attempts to jog her memory with photographs and tales, each of which sets off a trip into the past where we see what actually occurred and contrast it with Eve's foggy recollections. Meanwhile, Brograve is doing his best to shield his wife from the demands of an Egyptian archaeologist determined to track down missing artifacts from the tomb—on behalf of her government, her university, or herself? We're not quite sure of the archaeologist's motives, only that she has secrets of her own. The tale of Tutankhamun's tomb, the accidents that followed its discovery, and how Eve came to be the first person to enter its suffocating atmosphere three thousand years after the ancient Egyptian priests sealed the sarcophagus is beautifully told. But what really sets The Collector's Daughter apart is its haunting exploration of memory loss and its impact on Eve and Brograve's long and loving marriage. This is definitely a book that you don't want to miss. Gill Paul writes historical fiction, mostly set in the twentieth century, and enjoys reevaluating real historical characters and trying to get inside their heads. Her novels have reached the top of the USA Today and Globe and Mail (Canada) bestseller lists and been translated into twenty languages. C. P. Lesley is the author of two historical fiction series set during the childhood of Ivan the Terrible and three other novels. Her latest book, Song of the Sisters, appeared in January 2021.

Casi 100 años después del descubrimiento de la tumba del rey Tutankamón en el Valle de los Reyes, se utilizan imágenes en 2D y 3D para reconstruir la tumba, la momia y los objetos funerarios. En 1922 Howard Carter descubrió su tumba casi intacta en el transcurso de unas excavaciones sufragadas por Lord Carnarvon,4 un hallazgo que captó la atención de la prensa de todo el mundo. El descubrimiento de este hipogeo con más de 5000 artefactos, entre ellos la máscara funeraria de Tutankamón, expuesta en el Museo Egipcio de El Cairo, despertó un renovado interés en el Antiguo Egipto. Las muertes poco tiempo después de varios de los implicados en el descubrimiento de su momia se han atribuido popularmente a la maldición del faraón. Desde el descubrimiento de su enterramiento en el mundo anglosajón se lo conoce también como «Rey Tut».
As the Downton Abbey movie cast and crew complete filming at Highclere Castle Lady Carnarvon sits down with her favourite guest - her husband! With spring transitioning to summer and the castle opening up again to the public, it's time for a catch up and to look forward to the year ahead at 'the real Downton Abbey'.
With the recent announcement that the Australian Museum’s ‘treasures of King Tutankhamun’ exhibit has been cancelled, Michael speaks with Associate Professor Boyo Ockinga, lecturer, Department of History and Archaeology at Macquarie University, about the enduring fascination that we have with the boy king. Tutankhamun (c. 1342 – c. 1325 BC), was the ancient Egyptian pharaoh who was the last of his royal family to rule during the end of the 18th Dynasty during the New Kingdom of Egyptian history, and famed for his opulent tomb which was discovered intact in his original sarcophagus. Tutankhamun took the throne at eight or nine years of age under the unprecedented viziership of his eventual successor, Ay, and he married his half-sister Ankhesenamun. After his death at age 19, King Tut disappeared from history until the discovery of his tomb in 1922 by Howard Carter in excavations funded by Lord Carnarvon. Since then, studies of his tomb and remains have revealed much information about his life and times, making Tutankhamun one of the best known ancient Egyptian kings.

We're headed WAY back in time to Ancient Egypt to discuss the life and death of the most famous Egyptian pharaoh, King Tutankhamen. Despite the fact that the "Boy King" was in power for a mere decade, the finding of his burial site influenced modern culture in ways you can only imagine. But this isn't really a history podcast... What we're really doing hanging out with the major players in the 18th Dynasty of Ancient Egypt is because of the alleged Mummy's Curse. In the 1920s when archaeologists and Egypt enthusiasts, Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon, and the people present mysteriously started dying, word of the Curse of the Pharaohs spread like wildfire. On this episode of The Lady Dicks, the #DickSquad is digging into life in King Tut's crew, inscriptions written on the tombs of Egyptian royals, who died from the alleged curse and whether or not it's real. Oh, and we're also travelling to the Valley of the Kings and telling you about a few of the ghosts that lurk around the area. Don't miss the bad travel reviews, terrible name pronunciations and lots of incest talk (#SorryNotSorry, it's Ancient Egypt...). ___ The Lady Dicks dick-tect history, mystery and paranormal tales from around the world. Hailing from Canada, Tae, Nikki and Andrea are a terribly cheesy comedic trio that covers some of life's biggest mysteries and peskiest ghosts. Do you want more of The Lady Dicks?

For listeners of a certain age, a song about King Tutankhamen immediately brings Steve Martin to the mind's theater. His “King Tut” mock-reprimanded the commercialization of the Treasures of Tutankhamen exhibit that toured from 1976 to '79. But this one, “Old King Tut”, was recorded in 1923, the year AFTER the ancient Pharaoh's tomb was found. Howard Carter and company made the discovery at a time when many had abandoned the famous Valley of the Kings. Shortly after confirming the validity of their find, Carter sent a telegraph to the dig's sponsor, Lord Carnarvon: "At last have made wonderful discovery in Valley; a magnificent tomb with seals intact; re-covered same for your arrival; congratulations." But When Carnarvon arrived three weeks later, the team found that they'd not been the first visitors to the tomb: "At first, their enthusiasm was somewhat dampened, for at the top left-hand corner of the blocking were signs of re-closure, suggesting that the tomb had been entered during antiquity. They began by clearing the descending corridor, which also showed signs of a robber's efforts. By 4:00 pm on the afternoon of November 26th, the corridor was cleared and the team found a second door, again faced with plaster, stamped over with oval seals, and re-closed at the top left-hand corner. Not knowing what lay behind this doorway, Carter made a small hole in it and inserted a candle to test for foul gases. He then peered into the void beyond, reporting: "At first I could see nothing, the hot air escaping from the chamber causing the candle flame to flicker, but presently, as my eyes grew accustomed to the light, details of the room within emerged slowly from the mist, strange animals, statues, and gold - everywhere the glint of gold"."

There's a bit of a change this week with Lord Carnarvon taking over with the questioning. His guest is Kate Adie CBE, DL well known for her long service as the BBC's Chief News Correspondent. Kate has travelled extensively during her BBC career. The two foreign assignments she is most often associated with are the bombing of the Libyan capital Tripoli in 1986 and the Chinese authorities' killing of protestors in Tiananmen Square, Beijing, in 1989. She was on duty in London in 1980 when the siege of the Iranian Embassy was brought to an end by the SAS. Nowadays Kate presents From Our Own Correspondent and makes occasional programmes for BBC television and Radio 4. Her conversation with Lord Carnarvon was part of the 'History at Highclere' weekend.

PUBLISHER: W. W. Norton, 20 Oct 2020 A thrilling history of the West's scramble for the riches of ancient Egypt by the foremost Egyptologist of our time. From the decipherment of hieroglyphics in 1822 to the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb by Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon a hundred years later, the uncovering of Egypt's ancient past took place in an atmosphere of grand adventure and international rivalry. In A World Beneath the Sands, acclaimed Egyptologist Toby Wilkinson chronicles the ruthless race between the British, French, Germans, and Americans to lay claim to its mysteries and treasures. He tells riveting stories of the men and women whose obsession with Egypt's ancient civilization helped to enrich and transform our understanding of the Nile Valley and its people, and left a lasting impression on Egypt, too. Travelers and treasure-hunters, ethnographers and archaeologists: whatever their motives, whatever their methods, a century of adventure and scholarship revealed a lost world, buried for centuries beneath the sands.

Lady Carnarvon sits down with her husband Lord Carnarvon to reflect on the past year as they prepare to emerge from lockdown. It's been a period which in recent weeks has seen Highclere Castle lie dormant for one of the longest periods in its history. They also look back on how Downton Abbey has transformed their lives and swop memories of living with film crew. Now as the 'real' Downton Abbey prepares to welcome visitors again, Lord and Lady Carnarvon can start to look forward to returning to a more familiar routine.
Adam looks back at the Doctor Who stories 'Death to the Daleks' and 'The Pyramids of Mars' at the end of the Sarah-Jane-a-Thon. Mick Jagger's house, Lord Carnarvon connections, clarinets and the continuing controversy of the room temperature beverage. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
Tutankhamun lay in his tomb undisturbed until 1922, when British archaeologist Howard Carter and his wealthy patron, Lord Carnarvon, revealed him to the world. But the discovery of the century came with a price. Or rather three prices – the three curses of Tutankhamun: overwhelming popularity, damaging political blunders, and lingering ancient dark magic. This talk was presented by Juliette Desplat, Head of Overseas, Intelligence and Security Records at The National Archives in January 2020.
In the future a launch to the Planet Mars takes place, where a robotic explorer finds a mysterious marking on the wall of a lava tube. A vast underground city is found. The Earth is swept up in the excitement of Martian-mania. From there we shift from the Planet Mars to the discovery of the Tomb of Tutankhamen in the 1920s. What does the popular TV show Downton Abbey have to do with King Tutankhamun? Howard Carter, Lord Carnarvon, and Highclere Castle are discussed. An actual recording of Howard Carter is included in the podcast. From there the podcast explores the strange phenomenon called Egyptomania. Rob Cain reviews the book The Egyptologist and has on the show the 5-times published novelist Arthur Phillips. Phillips is a graduate of Harvard University and now lives in New York City. Phillips started out as a child actor, and held such jobs as a speech writer, jazz musician, and advertising copywriter. He is also a 5-time champion on the TV game show Jeopardy. Phillips is a TV and movie script writer working for FX, Netflix, HBO, and Sundance. The Egyptologist is structured as journals, letters, telegrams, and drawings, from several different points of view. The main story is set in 1922 and follows a hopeful explorer who, working near Howard Carter (the man who discovered the tomb of King Tutankhamun), risks more and more of his life and savings on an apparently Quixotic effort to find the tomb of an apocryphal Egyptian king. If you like to go on a dig, the book is for you. If you're a part time detective, this book will fill that need as well. Phillips takes us on an adventure.

Here's a look at 'Today in Rock History' featuring: Hafthor Bjornsson is 31. John McVie from Fleetwood Mac is 73. Charles M. Schulz was born on this day in 1922. He's the "Peanuts" genius, and year after year one of the top-earning dead celebrities. In 1922, King Tut's Tomb was entered by American archeologist Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon of England. King Tutankhamen became Pharaoh at age 9 and died when he was 19. So even HIS 10 year challenge sucked. In 1998, Hulk Hogan announced that he was retiring from pro wrestling and would run for president in 2000. Four years later, Hulk Hogan was back in wrestling.

1922 British archaeologist Howard Carter and his workmen discover a step leading to the tomb of King Tutankhamen in the Valley of the Kings in Egypt. After World War I, Carter began an intensive search for “King Tut's Tomb,” finally finding steps to the burial room hidden in the debris near the entrance of the nearby tomb of King Ramses VI in the Valley of the Kings. On November 26, 1922, Carter and fellow archaeologist Lord Carnarvon entered the interior chambers of the tomb, finding them miraculously intact. Thus began a monumental excavation process in which Carter carefully explored the four-room tomb over several years, uncovering an incredible collection of several thousand objects. The most splendid architectural find was a stone sarcophagus containing three coffins nested within each other. Inside the final coffin, which was made out of solid gold, was the mummy of the boy-king Tutankhamen, preserved for more than 3,000 years. Most of these treasures are now housed in the Cairo Museum. 1956 A spontaneous national uprising that began 12 days before in Hungary is viciously crushed by Soviet tanks and troops on November 4, 1956. Thousands were killed and wounded and nearly a quarter-million Hungarians fled the country. The problems in Hungary began in October 1956, when thousands of protesters took to the streets demanding a more democratic political system and freedom from Soviet oppression. In response, Communist Party officials appointed Imre Nagy, a former premier who had been dismissed from the party for his criticisms of Stalinist policies, as the new premier. Nagy tried to restore peace and asked the Soviets to withdraw their troops. The Soviets did so, but Nagy then tried to push the Hungarian revolt forward by abolishing one-party rule. He also announced that Hungary was withdrawing from the Warsaw Pact (the Soviet bloc's equivalent of NATO). Soviet tanks rolled into Budapest to crush, once and for all, the national uprising. Vicious street fighting broke out, but the Soviets' great power ensured victory. At 5:20 a.m., Hungarian Prime Minister Imre Nagy announced the invasion to the nation in a grim, 35-second broadcast, declaring: “Our troops are fighting. The Government is in place.” Within hours, though, Nagy sought asylum at the Yugoslav Embassy in Budapest. He was captured shortly thereafter and executed two years later. 1995 Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin is fatally shot after attending a peace rally held in Tel Aviv's Kings Square in Israel. Rabin later died in surgery. The 73-year-old prime minister was walking to his car when he was shot in the arm and the back by Yigal Amir, a 27-year-old Jewish law student who had connections to the far-right Jewish group Eyal. Israeli police arrested Amir at the scene of the shooting, and he later confessed to the assassination, explaining at his arraignment that he killed Rabin because the prime minister wanted “to give our country to the Arabs.” Born in Jerusalem, Rabin was a leader of the Arab-Israeli war of 1948 and served as chief-of-staff of Israel's armed forces during the Six-Day War of 1967. After serving as Israel's ambassador to the United States, Rabin entered the Labour Party and became prime minister in 1974. In 1977, Rabin resigned as prime minister over a scandal involving his holding of bank accounts in the United States in violation of Israeli law. In 1992, Rabin led the Labour Party to election victory and became Israel's prime minister again. In 1993, he signed the historic Israeli-Palestinian Declaration of Principles with Palestinian leader Yasir Arafat and in 1994 concluded a formal peace agreement with the Palestinians.

Tutankhamun was an Egyptian pharaoh of the 18th dynasty (ruled c. 1332–1323 BC in the conventional chronology), during the period of Egyptian history known as the New Kingdom or sometimes the New Empire Period. He has, since the discovery of his intact tomb, been referred to colloquially as King Tut. His original name, Tutankhaten, means "Living Image of Aten", while Tutankhamun means "Living Image of Amun". In hieroglyphs, the name Tutankhamun was typically written Amen-tut-ankh, because of a scribal custom that placed a divine name at the beginning of a phrase to show appropriate reverence. He is possibly also the Nibhurrereya of the Amarna letters, and likely the 18th dynasty king Rathotis who, according to Manetho, an ancient historian, had reigned for nine years—a figure that conforms with Flavius Josephus's version of Manetho's Epitome. The 1922 discovery by Howard Carter of Tutankhamun's nearly intact tomb, funded by Lord Carnarvon, received worldwide press coverage. It sparked a renewed public interest in ancient Egypt, for which Tutankhamun's mask, now in the Egyptian Museum, remains the popular symbol. Exhibits of artifacts from his tomb have toured the world. In February 2010, the results of DNA tests confirmed that he was the son of the mummy found in the tomb KV55, believed by some to be Akhenaten. His mother was his father's sister and wife, whose name is unknown but whose remains are positively identified as "The Younger Lady" mummy found in KV35. The "mysterious" deaths of a few of those who excavated Tutankhamun's tomb has been popularly attributed to the curse of the pharaohs.

Tutankhamun was a boy Pharoah who ruled Egypt in the 14th century BCE for about ten years, and overall did not stand out that much in Egyptian history. Once his tomb was discovered, intact and full of treasures, Tutankhamun would become one of the symbols of Ancient Egypt. The discovery of the tomb goes to the genius of Howard Carter, a brilliant archaeologist and Egyptologist, and the funding of Carter's excavations by Lord Carnarvon. Carter waited for Carnarvon to come to Egypt before he would actually open the tomb. It turned out Carter's thought about the value of the tomb was correct. Tutankhamun, rechristened as "King Tut," would travel the world with his funerary artifacts three millenia after his death, making the world learn more about Ancient Egypt.
-Cuando Howard Carter descubrió la tumba de Tutankamón- En la presente edición nos adentramos con Aroa Velasco y sus Papiros Perdidos en uno de los episodios más apasionantes de la egiptología. Aroa nos habla sobre la vida de Howard Carter, su formación e inclinaciones y cómo comienza a trabajar en Egipto con Percy Newberry y William Matthew Flinders Petrie. También nos habla sobre la figura de Lord Carnarvon y las campañas que realizaron en el Valle de los Reyes para encontrar la tumba de Tutankamón (1917-1922). Una vez hallada la tumba, el 4 de noviembre de 1922, nos detenemos en la conformación de la misma y el proceso de vaciado, un meticuloso ejercicio que le llevó a Carter 10 años. Además, hablamos del poder de la prensa y la supuesta "maldición de Tutankamón", el ciclo de conferencias de Carter por el mundo y los últimos años del egiptólogo, sin olvidar otros hallazgos de gran relevancia que se han producido en Egipto en el siglo XX.

In the year 1922, the golden age of archaeology was in full swing. In late fall, an unlikely duo of explorers combined their efforts to make what many consider to be the greatest discovery in world history. Since their great find, Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon changed the face of archaeology and shed new light on a figure that without their efforts would have been lost to history forever. On this episode we discuss King Tut’s tomb.
For Dad He would have loved this Tutankhamun (alternatively spelled with Tutenkh-, -amen, -amon) was an Egyptianpharaoh of the 18th dynasty (ruled ca. 1332 BC – 1323 BC in the conventional chronology), during the period of Egyptian history known as the New Kingdom. He is popularly referred to as King Tut. His original name, Tutankhaten, means "Living For Dad he would have loved this Go to According to the September 2010 issue of National Geographic magazine, Tutankhamun was the result of anincestuous relationship and, because of that, may have suffered from several genetic defects that contributed to his early death.[19] For years, scientists have tried to unravel ancient clues as to why the boy king of Egypt, who reigned for 10 years, died at the age of 19. Several theories have been put forth; one was that he was killed by a blow to the head, while another was that his death was caused by a broken leg. Lord Carnarvon was an enthusiastic amateur Egyptologist, undertaking in 1907 to sponsor the excavation of nobles' tombs in Deir el-Bahri (Thebes). Howard Carter joined him as his assistant in the excavations.[5] It is now established that it was Gaston Maspero, then Director of the Antiquities Department, who proposed Carter to Lord Carnarvon.[6] He received in 1914 the concession to dig in theValley of the Kings, in replacement of Theodore Davis who had resigned. In 1922, he and Howard Carter together opened the tomb of Tutankhamun in the Valley of the Kings, exposing treasures unsurpassed in the history of archaeology. Lord C Howard Carter RADAR for RAdio Detection AndRanging.[1] The term radar has since entered English and other languages as the common noun radar, losing all capitalization. James Clerk Maxwell FRS FRSE (13 June 1831 – 5 November 1879) was a Scottish[1][2]mathematical physicist.[3] His most prominent achievement was to formulate a set of equations that describe electricity, magnetism, and optics as manifestations of the samephenomenon, namely the electromagnetic field.[4] Maxwell's achievements concerning electromagnetism have been called the "second great unification in physics",[5] after the first one realised by Isaac Newton. The first permanent colour photograph, taken by James Clerk Maxwell in 1861James Clerk Maxwell FRS Heinrich Rudolf Hertz (22 February 1857 – 1 January 1894) was a German physicist who clarified and expanded James Clerk Maxwell's electromagnetic theory of light, which was first demonstrated by David Edward Hughes using non-rigorous trial and error procedures. Hertz is distinguished from Maxwell and Hughes because he was the first to conclusively prove the existence of electromagnetic waves by engineering instruments to transmit and receive radio pulses using experimental procedures that ruled out all other known wireless phenomena.[1] The scientific unit of frequency – cycles per second – was named the "hertz" in his honor.[2] Guglielmo Marconi for his development of Marconi's law and a radio telegraph system. Marconi is often credited as the inventor of radio, and he shared the 1909 Nobel Prize in Physics with Karl Ferdinand Braun "in recognition of their contributions to the development of wireless telegraphy".[2][3][4] As an entrepreneur, businessman, and founder of the The Wireless Telegraph & Signal Company in Britain in 1897, Marconi succeeded in making a commercial success of radio by innovating and building on the work of previous experimenters and physicists.[5][6] In 1924, 12 December 1901, using a 152.4-metre (500 ft) kite-supported antenna for reception, the message was received atSignal Hill in St John's, Newfoundland(now part of Canada) signals transmitted by the company's new high-power station at Poldhu, Cornwall. The distance between the two points was about 3,500 kilometres (2,200 mi). Heralded as a great scientific advance, there was—and continues to be—considerable skepticism about this claim Feeling challenged by skeptics, Marconi prepared a better organized and documented test. In February 1902, the SS Philadelphia sailed west from Great Britain with Marconi aboard, carefully recording signals sent daily from the Poldhu station. The test results producedcoherer-tape reception up to 2,496 kilometres (1,551 mi), and audio reception up to 3,378 kilometres (2,099 mi). The maximum distances were achieved at night, and these tests were the first to show that for mediumwave and longwave transmissions, radio signals travel much farther at night than in the day Robert Watson-Watt Sir Robert Alexander Watson-Watt, KCB, FRS, FRAeS (13 April 1892 – 5 December 1973) was a pioneer and significant contributor to the development of radar. Radar was initially nameless and researched elsewhere but it was greatly expanded on 1 September 1936 This system provided the vital advance information that helped the Royal Air Force win the Battle of Britain.[2][1] Higgs boson Peter Higgs still teaching The Higgs boson or Higgs particle is an elementary particle initially theorised in 1964,[6][7] and tentatively confirmed to exist on 14 March 2013.[8] The discovery has been called "monumental"[9][10] because it appears to confirm the existence of the Higgs field,[11][12] which is pivotal to the Standard Model and other theories within particle physics. It would explain why some fundamental particles have mass The LHC tunnel is located 100 metres underground, in the region between the Geneva International Airport and the nearby Jura mountains. It uses the 27 km circumference circular tunnel previously occupied by LEP which was closed down in November 2000. CERN's existing PS/SPS accelerator complexes will be used to pre-accelerate protons which will then be injected into the LHC. The LHC resumed operation on Friday 20 November 2009 by successfully circulating two beams, each with an energy of 3.5 trillion electron volts. The challenge that the engineers then faced was to try to line up the two beams so that they smashed into each other. This is like "firing two needles across the Atlantic and getting them to hit each other" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=joTKd5j3mzk 3 minute video explains everything Terracotta Army Terracotta Army there were over 8,000 soldiers, 130 chariots with 520 horses and 150 cavalry horses, the majority of which are still buried in the pits near by Qin Shi Huang's mausoleum.[2] Other terracotta non-military figures were also found in other pits and they include officials, acrobats, strongmen and musicians. There are four main pits associated with the terracotta army.[24][25] These pits are located about 1.5 km east of the burial mound and are about 7 metres deep. The army is placed as if to protect the tomb from the east, where all the Qin Emperor's conquered states lay. Pit one, which is 230 metres long and 62 metres wide,[25] contains the main army of more than 6,000 figures.[26] Pit one has 11 corridors, most of which are over 3 metres wide, and paved with small bricks with a wooden ceiling supported by large beams and posts. This design was also used for the tombs of noblemen and would have resembled palace hallways. The wooden ceilings were covered with reed mats and layers of clay for waterproofing, Some of these weapons such as the swords are still very sharp and found to be coated with chromium oxide. This layer of chromium oxide is 10–15 micrometre thick and has kept the swords rust-free and in pristine condition after 2,000 years Graphene Andre Geim: It's the thinnest material you can get -- it's only one atom thick. A tiny amount can cover a huge area, so one gram could cover a whole football pitch. It's the strongest material we are aware of because you can't slice it any further. Of course, we know that atoms can be divided into elementary particles, but you can't get any material that is thinner than one atom, or it wouldn't count as a material anymore. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dTSnnlITsVg http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WFacA6OwCjA http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sugmA-pll4k
