King Tut - The Robbing of Tutankhamun's Tomb

( http://heritage-key.com/blogs/malcolmj/how-king-tut%E2%80%99s-tomb-avoided-ro... ) Dr Zahi Hawass talks about the tomb robbers and how the Tomb of King Tutankhamun was saved from being raided after it was sealed by the Valley of the Kings police. Work on creating the Tomb of Ramesses VI, which is adjacent to KV62, led to part of King Tut's tomb caving in and sealing the entrance. It makes KV62 the only tomb in the Valley of the Kings to be discovered fully intact.

@Ozjourneyman well ud atleast think who ever did create all the planets and life on earth would either have a headache and would be confused how he or it created itself ?

[Ozjourneyman]

@mastersduhgree You take your knowledge from a collective text authored by some 14 scholars over a period of some 800yrs. Can those words really be taken as gospel. No pun intended.

didnt amoung the creator have to do with this i dont know i just read something about him that said that the creator lost his tran of thought and needs to return the items and fell and he love with this women.

uhm he didnt acidentaly find him, i only read 12 pages in a book about tutankhamen and i know this. Carter had supspisions that there was anoth pharoah in the valley because he found artifacts with the name tutankhamen on them in the area so he began excavating

[mastersduhgree]

Does nayone know who Tut really was? He was the first born of rameses who was pharoah when the hebrews left egypt just before the night of the passove.They dont really know how he died they say but....He actually died when the angel of death came on passover and took the lifes of the firstborn of egypt(even the animals died that night). Ist that soemthing REAL HISTORIC now? THey have never found the real body of rameses becasue he died in the red sea with His army that was chasing the hebrews
