From the Publisher

The discovery and excavation of Tutankhamun’s tomb is one of the most famous archaeological finds in history. But compelling evidence suggests that the story we know is a sham: Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon actually discovered Tutankhamun’s tomb several years before they told the world, looted it (even destroying artifacts to make it look like the work of early tomb robbers), resealed it, then led the world’s media back to the site to claim their place in history. The Tutankhamun Deception is the story of the skullduggery that went on in the Valley of the Kings and how the “Mummy’s Curse” might actually have been a systematic way of eliminating those who were about to blow the cover on one of the most astounding hoaxes in archaeological history.
