REVIEW:
King Tutankhamen has always been an interesting Egyptian pharaoh and that interest is only heightened by the first American tour in twenty-five years that is now in full swing. This exhibit allows visitors to view King Tut’s body by using CT scan technology and see just how he may have looked. Visitors can learn about his journey into the afterlife by exploring the four walls of the burial chamber with a narrated tour, 360 degree views and interactive options. The Royal Wrappings section offers a detailed look at the four shrines, sarcophagus, and three coffins in which King Tut was entombed as well as the mummy itself. Included is an extensive resource list of other related National Geographic resources as well as Web links.
