Golden Mask

60 мин.

King Tut's incredible death mask -- 24 pounds of pure gold -- has always been the subject of debate with many scholars believing its damaged nameplate, known as a cartouche, and different colors of gold meant it was never made specifically for him. It was more likely made for his female ancestor, Nefertiti. And, until now, the evidence seems to back that theory up. New analysis of some of his many burial goods, including Shabtis -- miniature effigies that were meant to act as servants in the afterlife -- suggest up to a quarter of all the treasures in the tomb were made for someone else.
