Ever since Howard Carter uncovered King Tutankhamun’s tomb in 1922, the young pharaoh has become a symbol of the wealth and mystery of ancient Egypt.
Now, a two-and-a-half-year-long museum exhibit of Tut’s treasures is touring major cities in the U.S., drawing record crowds. This Who Was . . . ? is complete with 100 black-andwhite illustrations and explains the life and times of this ancient Egyptian ruler, covering the story of the tomb’s discovery, as well as myths and so-called mummy curses.
圖坦卡門是新王國時代中的一位法老王，統治時期約在西元前14世紀，父親-阿肯那頓王過世，圖坦卡門這個九歲的男孩便繼承了王位，舊朝元老將他改名「圖坦卡門」，再度恢復對阿蒙神的信仰。這些前朝元老握著政治實權，圖坦卡門空有其名，從未真正統治過國家，並在十 八歲時就結束了短暫的一生。
和中國古代的小皇帝佷像，圖坦卡門沒能掌握實權，甚至有可能被人謀殺而死，也因為沒有什麼功績而幾乎被人遺忘，直至3千年後的公元1922年，因考古學家發現他未被盜墓賊搜括一空的墓穴而忽然聲名大噪...
