This might be a weird thing I find interesting but… I’ll share it anyway. What’s cool to me is how untouched it remained for so long. When Pompeii was buried, when London burned in 1666, when the United States was founded, when Henry the VIII reigned… all of this was sitting in the same EXACT position. Everything outside, changed by humans, by nature. But not this tomb.
I agree with you, also I like how you put that together, I feel the exact same way. I get this feeling that I don't really know how to describe, it's just a Nice feeling :p
The title of the video sounded more exciting than watching two people guess at what they’re looking at in a picture that was taken 1 month after the real first look of the tomb 🙄
I found it very interesting. It makes me realise that while I’ve seen many photos of the artefacts in the tomb, and have even seen some of them in real life, I’ve never seen what the room itself looked like. Like a storeroom in fact!
My wife and I were fortunate enough to visit Egypt and see the riches in the Cairo museum, including Tutankhamen gold death mask, sarcophagus etc. Later we visited the Valley of the Kings and went down into his tomb where his mummified body now lies inside a glass temperature controlled coffin. The Egyptian ‘watchman’ in the tomb was a lovely man who pointed out the different wall paintings and was quite happy for me to take a photograph of him and no he didn’t ask for a tip (although he was so nice I gave him one anyway) in case you are thinking that. Yes there are tombs there and the Valley of the Queens that are more ornate but none will leave such a lasting impression on us as that of King Tutankhamen.
I went to Egypt for my 40th birthday. I had an Atlas as a kid and I would look at it and read about the customs and culture of different countries, and so spent as long as I can remember wanting to see the Pyramids and Valley of the Kings, and the temples. My country is far away from Egypt and expensive to get there, but I was working in London for 3 years. I got the sleeper train, and as an old movie buff, I imagined it was the Orient Express. I arrived at 6am at the Valley of the Kings with a young American fella 23, and he only had the day and had organised to have a guide pick him up, he invited me to join him, we had a fantastic day. We were asked for baksheesh (a tip) and the guard let us go into the lower section of Tutankhamen’s tomb, so we were both able to look directly into King Tutankhamen’s face. It was incredible and the other tombs much bigger and decorated with hieroglyphics. The whole trip was incredible it’s nearly 20yrs later and I would love to go back again and experience it for longer. I did get to see a police chase at the Pyramids, a Camel riding tout was close to the pyramids and me looking for a job, as it was summer in Egypt so about 42c every day so not many tourists. Suddenly a cop on a camel started yelling at the camel tout, and then the police chase on a camel happened, it was also a hilarious and once in a lifetime highlight. Cairo museum was incredible, I would love to visit the new one on The Giza plateau.
Thank you for sharing that experience of you and your wife in Egypt….quite amazing….when my wife and I were there unfortunately we weren’t so lucky…..we never met anyone who didn’t want a tip!
If these were items in storage for the after life, it's not clear why modern people feel it was done in a rush, and looks messy. Perhaps it was their version of cramming suitcases and backpacks in a corner of a room - no need to make it look pretty, because it is there to be merely unpacked?
They said it is because he died young. If he had died when he was older he probably would have made preparations for the afterlife himself over a period of time.
The tomb had been robbed at least twice (probably fairly soon after the burial). My understanding is that the workmen / priests who sorted things out and resealed the tomb after the last robbery are thought to have done a rushed and somewhat careless job. I'm not sure why this point isn't mentioned in the video.
We saw the man himself last year. Unreal being down there. I cannot imagine how these men felt. I can't believe so much was stolen from Egypt. It's sad and the Egyptian people feel it.
They probably would've destroyed it, Egypt is 90% Muslim, so thank Europe for preserving history. They destroyed ancient Mesopotamian artifacts, what do you think they would've done to Tutankhamun's tomb?
@@s3v3n3 thank god a robber has stolen my tv yesterday, i would've broken it today, who knows? justifying stealing other cultures' heritage and history for such stupid reasons is pathetic. Egypt is opening the biggest one-civilization-dedicated museum soon, it's recently established many other modern museums as well, however i haven't witnessed any stolen egyptian artifacts or historical remainings being recovered back to egypt. it's not a preservation case you genius, it's simply that the egyptian artifacts are the most profitable in museums tourism for those cultural-poor, new-born european/north-american civilizations and countries which are simply pased on stealing other nations' belongings.
The Copts are what's left of the real Egyptians. The rest are just arabs who invaded and took over since the Islamic conquests, and historically haven't always had a lot of respect for previous cultures that were "un-islamic"
Extraordinary, I wonder how many beautiful things other tombs had, lets thank to the history that it left us one tomb of such precious things, not destroyed by thousands of years.
I also visited inside one of the cave in kings valley. I bribed the local caretaker for that. When I went inside I was amazed to see the craving inside the walls, it was almost like laser cut, very precise.
Carter had already breached the chamber and taken items, he stacked items to cover his ghosts hope and therefore left the deal intact for the official photographs
Because nothing is being stolen, it's being given to whom it belongs, the people of that country. However I do think we have too many of other countries artifacts abroad. These treasures belong to everyone in Egypt, and they should stay in Egypt.

They buried him fast and furious then buried the entrance to his tomb thinking he would totally be forgotten. I also think that they gave him a proper burial because he restored the original Gods. Unlike his father who if I remember wasn't even mummified. he was just buried.
I recall visiting Tutankhamen Tomb ( 1963 ) About entering opening of Tomb a small Grey coloured Bat flew out nearly hit me in my face, I ducked just in time. I'm English, I live in England, UK Sorry for being boringly nostalgic. Anyway, Peace to all.
I was able to view the gold mask at the Field Musem in Chicago with a friend for around an hour without any large crowds as we arrived at dawn and had to wait for the museum to open. Once more people showed up we did a quick tour of the rest of the museum then went to see Star Wars for the Saturday first show for the day the third it was shown in total Thursday and Friday shows were reported as only about a third full. Saturday started about the same no waiting to buy tickets by the end of the first scenes police were called for crowd control. Thanks for the back story of the photo.
That is fascinating.. I've always been intrigued with Tutankhamun.. what an incredible part of history. The Mummy of Tutankhamun is a very good Documentary on Amazon, it's based on the true story of Howard Carrera.
My great uncle is Lord Canarvon.. My great aunt married him. He was the first to die of the curse. Actually he died of an infected mosquito bites. My family tells a story about the first night the tomb was opened. It was dark and they decided to go into the tomb and get drunk..😂 so they were hanging with King Tut, drinking with him too. What a kool story of these men..😊
4:25 proof the Throne Chair featuring Pharaoh Tutankhamun and Ankhesenamun basking beneath the Rays of the Aten. Buried with Tut. He and his sister wife never abandoned the faith of their father Pharaoh Akhenaten. 🙌🏽 Reason for their deaths, I think. 😔
Excellent video/documentary to whet the appetite….I got my first taste of Tutankhamen in an edition of National Geographic magazine from the early 60’s. I try to keep updated whenever there’s anything interesting published however, there are often times when the source of information isn’t quite dependable. Thank you for your video. Mac
So King Tut 's people were horders? I know, they need everything to prepare for after life ... The moral of this lesson is, no matter how rich, powerful a person is, they can never take anything with them when they expire.
Luke 16:19-31 There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day: And there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores, And desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; And in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham afar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented. And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence. Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house: For I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment. Abraham saith unto him, They have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them. And he said, Nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent. And he said unto him, If they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead.

@@purefoldnz3070 thanks for the info. Alexander the Great's tomb would be one of the ultimate finds in modern archaeology, if there is still any trace of it left. I don't know why I find... the intrigue of these unfound sites so appealing, but even the little parts of ancient Alexandria we have found in Mediterranean waters fascinate me.
not really "written off" but more like put to the side and with very good reason, science and history should be based on what you can prove more than mentions in stories or scripts and things like that. Believing in myths and lore is for religious anti-science people.
@@Christian_Johansson Without spirituality, there is no "Science". What you really mean is, ignore the lies that your people spread around the World. You know exactly what pre-dynastic means.
@@Christian_Johansson many of the greatest scientific discoveries were credited to spiritual experiences, evolution for example. From one point of view they are diametrically opposed, from another one in the same
@@garotadagavea yes, I have seen a few documentaries about both him finding it and the later excavations. Doesn't change what I said though, writing history by listening to myths and legends is not how it's done. I don't say all myths are made up but anyone who says you should use myths to teach human history is stupid. Facts that can be proven or it isn't certain and history is our knowledge of the past, not what we heard or read in a fairytale script. There's no way around it.
The truth of the matter is if it was indeed that carelessly and hastily put in, it's likely hasn't much to do with the person who does but more so to do with something happening outside the tomb at that moment. They probably put all the most valuable items in Egypt in the tomb to protect from an invasion that was taking place.
I agree, it is sad. This young man deserves to be at peace and he was for centuries until his tomb was discovered, opened up and everything including the king's mummy was drug out and put on display. It's fascinating to see these treasures but it should all be put back so he can rest in peace. 😞
@@Yo-Two It's colonialism mentality that because it's another race and culture then it doesn't matter. When have you seen ancient Europeans get dug up and displayed in a museum?
Did they just enter, loot, and bring them back to their country for their own gain? What if Country X from Asia travels all the way to England, digs up some tomb belonging to their royal family, and then brings it back to their own museum..will that be ok?
Unfortunately the flip side of the coin is that the opening of the tomb set the wheels in motion for this team's demise. Their names may be forever linked to the discovery of Tutankhamun...but when you unwrap a mummy...there's a price to be paid. Ancient fungi and bacteria were unleashed...ironically Tut's death led to their own deaths...just innocently knocking over that first domino and peering into the tomb set those events in motion...
A bbc radio play called the tomb said they changed the actual version of the discovery so carter and 😮 got to keep a lot of the treasure, is this true! 🤔
😊🙏 This is like following the real Indiana Jones' expedition into the discovery of the ancient Egyptian Pharaoh King Tutankhamun's tomb indeed ... Thank You So Much BBC for this privilege ... 🙏🕯🌷🌿🌏✌💜🕊
Having been to every tomb in the valley of the kings and queens (that are open to the pubic) tutankhmun's is the most hyped but also most disapointing. there is no doubt that it was a rushed job compared to seti 1st, ramases and the queen nefertari...
@@vjekoslavschmidt7673 You right they should of left it to the locals who already looted them and destroyed it. Its a shame the Brits uncovered their history, should of just allowed them to destroy it
This video is about a photograph taken by Harry Burton inside the tomb of Tutankhamun. The video explains that the photograph is a recreation of what Howard Carter saw when he first entered the tomb. The real tomb would have been much darker because Carter used a candle for light. The photograph was staged with electric lights to get a better picture. The video goes on to discuss the contents of the photograph in detail. It describes ritual beds, fantastic boxes containing food, alabaster vessels, stools, and even a bouquet of flowers. The video says that these items were probably crammed into the tomb because Tutankhamun died young and they were trying to fit in all the burial equipment. The video concludes by saying that the tomb of Tutankhamun was a major archaeological discovery because it was the first relatively undisturbed royal tomb ever found in Egypt. This discovery greatly expanded our knowledge of ancient Egyptian burial practices. . Your welcome
It's pretty amazing that they found out that King Tutankhamun and his entire family lineage or Caucasian people. The mummies that have been tested have all been confirmed caucasian. From the caucasus. Western Europe Northern Africa
Usually somewhere over a couple hundred years, generally more. King Tutankhamun "ruled" (fairly briefly) *over 3350 years ago* - definitely "archaeology" to study his tomb.
The answer is apparently 100 years after the person's death. Thus the body of the king's favorite, Diane de Poitier (1500) was exhumed and autosed. We know what killed her. A person who died 100 years ago was not known during his lifetime by anyone. I saw videos of Native American tribes in Canada. They accepted that the bodies of their ancestors be studied to better know their history by recalling that they are ancestors not objects. The current Egyptians also want to study their past! They do what they want with their ancestors.
I must’ve misunderstood or missed something, because I thought I was going to see something I’ve never seen before. Not the case…I’ve seen all of this, years ago. I even saw the real things when they came to the U.S. (New Orleans) back in the late 70’s-ish. 🤷♂️
4:25 The Tomb of Tutankhamen is replete with numerous depictions of him as a dark skinned African man. His throne shows him and his wife Ankhesenpaaton as dark skinned black Africans too. But yet mainstream science casts doubt on their Africanity.
@@annapiwowarczyk9303 Netflix has Cleopatra, a Macedonian Greek woman and a foreigner. This’s a fully indigenous black African man with dark skin. His tomb is filled with murals of black Africans. Cry harder 🤣
@@annapiwowarczyk9303 You Slavic people didn’t get civilised till barely 800 years ago. The Byzantine Romans taught you everything you know. This’s not your civilisation.
Basing the idea that it was rushed on the photograph staged by the british photographer a month later seems a bit presumptive. Something tells me they didnt leave it where it was for a month but maybe.
So Tutankhamun went to great lengths to create a treasure of exquisite artifacts at great expense just to ramshakle pile them up in a dusty old cave room.. sounds legit to me.
This might be a weird thing I find interesting but… I’ll share it anyway. What’s cool to me is how untouched it remained for so long. When Pompeii was buried, when London burned in 1666, when the United States was founded, when Henry the VIII reigned… all of this was sitting in the same EXACT position. Everything outside, changed by humans, by nature. But not this tomb.
Yes I find this though very intriguing as well.
I agree with you, also I like how you put that together, I feel the exact same way. I get this feeling that I don't really know how to describe, it's just a Nice feeling :p
Cause people believed in the curse.
The tomb is a hoax, its layout is completely unlike that of a male pharaoh and the artifacts make no sense

@@purefoldnz3070 thanks for the info. Alexander the Great's tomb would be one of the ultimate finds in modern archaeology, if there is still any trace of it left. I don't know why I find... the intrigue of these unfound sites so appealing, but even the little parts of ancient Alexandria we have found in Mediterranean waters fascinate me.
@@williestyle35 so much of history is lost, hopefully not forever.
But we have her sister!
I saw his grandmother and his tomb in chicago in 2008
Amazing.
Fascinating
I wish more was known about pre dynastic Egypt. A lot gets written off as myths and lore , something was going on in that area way back in the day.
not really "written off" but more like put to the side and with very good reason, science and history should be based on what you can prove more than mentions in stories or scripts and things like that. Believing in myths and lore is for religious anti-science people.
@@Christian_Johansson Without spirituality, there is no "Science". What you really mean is, ignore the lies that your people spread around the World. You know exactly what pre-dynastic means.
@@Christian_Johansson many of the greatest scientific discoveries were credited to spiritual experiences, evolution for example. From one point of view they are diametrically opposed, from another one in the same
@@Christian_Johanssonhmmm, ever read about how Schliemann discovered the site of Troy?
@@garotadagavea yes, I have seen a few documentaries about both him finding it and the later excavations. Doesn't change what I said though, writing history by listening to myths and legends is not how it's done.
I don't say all myths are made up but anyone who says you should use myths to teach human history is stupid. Facts that can be proven or it isn't certain and history is our knowledge of the past, not what we heard or read in a fairytale script. There's no way around it.
Great video
I was King tut in my past life I remember it very clearly crazy feeling looking at all this
Really?
if you touch the remains of your old body, it becomes a zombie!
@@lukeofficial6572 yes
Are there any missing items that are in the pictures but not in the museum?
He shouldn’t have cut him up. He was a king
Wdym they need to see what he looked like to uncover history they did not cut him, they cut the mummy
Richard And Daniela ❤❤
The truth of the matter is if it was indeed that carelessly and hastily put in, it's likely hasn't much to do with the person who does but more so to do with something happening outside the tomb at that moment. They probably put all the most valuable items in Egypt in the tomb to protect from an invasion that was taking place.
and yet we will never learn all the real mysteries. just the mc donald's version of everything
How do we feel about excavating something that was intended to remain undisturbed for an eternity?
I mean that's true but we wouldn't know much about times past if we didn't explore these areas deeper.
Learning history and understanding what happened is more important than the DEAD being "disturbed"
The lack of respect is insane. To desecrate someone's tomb, regardless of who they were, for the purpose of displaying it for profit is shameful.
I was thinking the same thing. Why do they have the right to unbury the boy king?
That's why in England, museums are free for everyone to visit. Including tourists.
I agree, it is sad. This young man deserves to be at peace and he was for centuries until his tomb was discovered, opened up and everything including the king's mummy was drug out and put on display. It's fascinating to see these treasures but it should all be put back so he can rest in peace. 😞
@@Yo-Two It's colonialism mentality that because it's another race and culture then it doesn't matter. When have you seen ancient Europeans get dug up and displayed in a museum?
Did they just enter, loot, and bring them back to their country for their own gain? What if Country X from Asia travels all the way to England, digs up some tomb belonging to their royal family, and then brings it back to their own museum..will that be ok?
Unfortunately the flip side of the coin is that the opening of the tomb set the wheels in motion for this team's demise. Their names may be forever linked to the discovery of Tutankhamun...but when you unwrap a mummy...there's a price to be paid. Ancient fungi and bacteria were unleashed...ironically Tut's death led to their own deaths...just innocently knocking over that first domino and peering into the tomb set those events in motion...
Hurry up and open, Grand Egyptian Museum!
A bbc radio play called the tomb said they changed the actual version of the discovery so carter and 😮 got to keep a lot of the treasure, is this true! 🤔
So fricken cool!!!😎
"First ever View" nothing in this video I haven't seen many times before.
They are wearing suites in Egyptian heat? Wow...
Can't even RIP around here 😂
huge fail thinking you're funny
@@slowery43 It is pretty funny
No gift, no treatment will ever mend or heal what you've done but you started it now
Where is the other stuff from the chambers that did get robbed? There must be insane pieces somewhere.
😊🙏 This is like following the real Indiana Jones' expedition into the discovery of the ancient Egyptian Pharaoh King Tutankhamun's tomb indeed ... Thank You So Much BBC for this privilege ... 🙏🕯🌷🌿🌏✌💜🕊
Having been to every tomb in the valley of the kings and queens (that are open to the pubic) tutankhmun's is the most hyped but also most disapointing. there is no doubt that it was a rushed job compared to seti 1st, ramases and the queen nefertari...
interesting that the math the greeks had presumably originated here, we use that for everything, including space travel.
I swear they've been milking king tuts tomb since I was like 8 years old lmao
What is that doing in England ??
For the Brits, human history is their rightful inheritance.
@@stevesmith4901 biggest looters ever
@@vjekoslavschmidt7673 You right they should of left it to the locals who already looted them and destroyed it. Its a shame the Brits uncovered their history, should of just allowed them to destroy it
s/o to my mom buying us tickets as kids to see the tomb. when we had no idea why it was such a big deal lol
This video is about a photograph taken by Harry Burton inside the tomb of Tutankhamun.
The video explains that the photograph is a recreation of what Howard Carter saw when he first entered the tomb. The real tomb would have been much darker because Carter used a candle for light. The photograph was staged with electric lights to get a better picture.
The video goes on to discuss the contents of the photograph in detail. It describes ritual beds, fantastic boxes containing food, alabaster vessels, stools, and even a bouquet of flowers. The video says that these items were probably crammed into the tomb because Tutankhamun died young and they were trying to fit in all the burial equipment.
The video concludes by saying that the tomb of Tutankhamun was a major archaeological discovery because it was the first relatively undisturbed royal tomb ever found in Egypt. This discovery greatly expanded our knowledge of ancient Egyptian burial practices.
. Your welcome
Amazing
It's pretty amazing that they found out that King Tutankhamun and his entire family lineage or Caucasian people. The mummies that have been tested have all been confirmed caucasian. From the caucasus. Western Europe Northern Africa
A time when things were built to last.
This is really really cool, but I kinda wish we could leave stuff alone. But we're human, and if we don't protect it, it will be stolen by others.
How long do you have to be dead before going into your grave is called archaeology?!
Usually somewhere over a couple hundred years, generally more. King Tutankhamun "ruled" (fairly briefly) *over 3350 years ago* - definitely "archaeology" to study his tomb.
Very interesting question !
Good question
The answer is apparently 100 years after the person's death. Thus the body of the king's favorite, Diane de Poitier (1500) was exhumed and autosed. We know what killed her.
A person who died 100 years ago was not known during his lifetime by anyone. I saw videos of Native American tribes in Canada. They accepted that the bodies of their ancestors be studied to better know their history by recalling that they are ancestors not objects.
The current Egyptians also want to study their past!
They do what they want with their ancestors.
I must’ve misunderstood or missed something, because I thought I was going to see something I’ve never seen before. Not the case…I’ve seen all of this, years ago. I even saw the real things when they came to the U.S. (New Orleans) back in the late 70’s-ish. 🤷♂️
4:25 The Tomb of Tutankhamen is replete with numerous depictions of him as a dark skinned African man. His throne shows him and his wife Ankhesenpaaton as dark skinned black Africans too. But yet mainstream science casts doubt on their Africanity.
Too much netflix.
It's amazing how they try to convince you that what you're seeing is not real.
@@annapiwowarczyk9303
Netflix has Cleopatra, a Macedonian Greek woman and a foreigner. This’s a fully indigenous black African man with dark skin. His tomb is filled with murals of black Africans. Cry harder 🤣
@@annapiwowarczyk9303
You Slavic people didn’t get civilised till barely 800 years ago. The Byzantine Romans taught you everything you know. This’s not your civilisation.
@@lks6248
He’s clearly depicted on his murals and throne as a dark skinned black African man. You racists just don’t wanna admit the obvious.
What software was used for the special effects in this video?
3300 years ago the people wearing white lines clothes hurriedly keeping these artifacts on top of each other speaking in their ancient language.
Look for a program titled, “The Man Who Shot Tutankahmun”. It shows and talks about the photos and the photographer.
Over 3,000 years later, and no afterlife for Dr. Tut. Another religeon petrified into mythology.
Great find. Amazing.
Basing the idea that it was rushed on the photograph staged by the british photographer a month later seems a bit presumptive. Something tells me they didnt leave it where it was for a month but maybe.
I couldn't be more bored
🔥
Why won’t we ever know what the tombs of Ramses look like, that she alluded to?
Because although the tombs are still there, they were robbed of their contents thousands of years ago.
Guess we cant say RIP to Mr. Khamun
👍
So Tutankhamun went to great lengths to create a treasure of exquisite artifacts at great expense just to ramshakle pile them up in a dusty old cave room.. sounds legit to me.
,,..here,,,for all to see == the dead graverobbers😮
The first shall be last and the last shall be first
Fun fact... if you want to visit the Egyptian Pharoah Tutankhamun's tomb, you have to travel to England.
Because? Sorry I don't get it? The tomb is in Southern Egypt the artifacts are in Cario.
I don't know what that means but if it were up to Egypt all of these things would still be buried so props to Europeans for caring about history.
Fact check shows to be in Luxor and parts in Giza
Should have cared about your artefacts then
What were the items that were uncovered. Gold, ebony, diamonds, why make it as if it is still a secret
