The Mysterious Curse of Tutankhamun’s Tomb In 1922, Howard Carter made the groundbreaking discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb in Egypt's Valley of the Kings. This incredible find captivated the world, but it also sparked tales of a deadly curse. The Curse of the Pharaohs allegedly claimed the lives of several people involved in the excavation. Notably, Lord Carnarvon, who financed the expedition, died shortly after the tomb was opened. Many believe his death and others were due to supernatural forces, while skeptics argue for more mundane explanations like bacteria and mold. Whether curse or coincidence, the legend of Tutankhamun's tomb continues to intrigue and mystify.
