1 week agoDisturbing details emerge about King Tut discovery
Howard Carter and Egyptian excavators dismembered King Tutankhamun's mummy in 1925 to remove it, then reassembled it, and photographs document the damage.
Sabrina Higgins, an associate professor of Aegean and Mediterranean societies and cultures at SFU, tells The Art Newspaper that she has had "a huge amount of interest" in a course she has designed for the autumn semester around the unique find. Students will get to analyse the designs and materials with a view to identifying where and when the items originate from.
