The Tutankhamun Deception by Gerald O'farrell

The Tutankhamun Deception by Gerald O'farrell

The extraordinary expose of the hoax which lies at the heart of archeologyThe discovery and excavation of Tutankhamun's tomb is one of the most famous archeological finds in history. But compelling evidence suggests the story we know is a sham: Howard Carter and Lord Carnavon actually discovered Tutankahmun's tomb several years before they told the world they did, looted it (even destroying some artfacts to make it look as though tomb robbers from centuries before had been there), re-sealed it, then led the world's media back to the site to claim their place in history. This is the astonishing story of the skullduggery that went on in the Valley of the Kings between the wars and how the famous Mummy's Curse, far from being something mystical, could well have been a systematic way of getting rid of those who were about to blow the cover on the secret of the find, and the secrets of the tomb...

Dr Gerald O'Farrell, Frgs has researched Egyptology for over 30 years. The author of Imhotep, Architect of the Universe, he has a number of articles published in Quest magazine. He is also the consultant for the documentary series being produced for the Discovery Channel.
