EGYPT LAND OF THE PHARAOHS

This is the land of mystery that has fascinated the western world for hundreds of years

With stories of grandeur, war and civilisation stretching back over the millennia it has been the focus of writers, artists, archaeologists, Egyptologists, photographers, film makers, and of course Michael.

 

One of the most famous images of Ancient Egypt has to be the golden death mask of the boy king Tutankhamun and the story of the rule and death and intrigue is one of the most fascinating that I have heard.

 

Although he was not a very well known Pharaoh before Howard Carter discovered his unviolated tomb in 1922, Tutankhamun has become one of the most discussed of the Ancient Egyptians. Even so most people only aware of his treasures and know little of the life of a king who came to rule at the age of 9 and was dead by the age of 18.
