OverviewThe tomb of Tutankhamun was undoubtedly among the greatest archaeological discoveries of all time, and everyone knows about the troubles which beset this remarkable find. The untimely death of Lord Carnarvon just after the opening of the tomb, and his appetite for the occult, swiftly gave rise to rumours of a curse.
