An Amazing Discovery

 It was 1922. Archeologists Howard Carter and Lord Caernarvon were in Egypt, searching for the remains of kings who had lived thousands of years before. For six years they had worked in the desert, but they had found nothing.

  However, on that day they heard a shout and saw stairs down into the earth. The stairs were cleared and at the bottom there was a door. The door was locked. Inside there was a room full of wonderful things. Everything that was needed for everyday life was there. And many of the things were made of gold.

Later the body of a king was found. He was only eighteen when he died and he was called Tutankhamun. His name was written on many of the objects. He was buried in a gold box called a sarcophagus, inside a series of other boxes. These were all placed inside another room with impressive gold doors. The remains of many ancient Egyptian kings have been excavated, but all of them had been robbed. Only Tutankhamun’s remains were not touched for 3,273 years.
