Howard Carter entered the burial chamber of Tutankhamun on 17 February 1923. On 6 March, Lord Carnarvon (his financial backer) was bitten by a mosquito. The bite became infected and he died on 5 April. Rumors began to spread that the curse of Tutankhamun's tomb had claimed its first victim. According to Christine el-Mahdy, it was the Arab peoples of Egypt in the first century AD who were the first to suggest that a mummy could come to life and attack anyone who broke into a pharaohs tomb. This idea remained popular partly because the Ancient Egyptian language and culture had long since been suppressed and so there was no-one to correct this misunderstanding. When Carvarvon died following the discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamun, the notion of a curse was revitalized (but without the reanimation of the mummy).
There was a belief that the curse of King Tut's tomb was that people would die naturally, but before their time.
no the guy that found him died from diseas from a bug king tuts tomb is not cursed
don't beleave what oter people say
thanks Dylan ;p :)
There is no curse. It was result of an overactive imagination amongst the media when Lord Caenarvon died soon after the tomb was opened.
tuts curse was some thing like if you were to open the door of the tomb you would be cursed the first sighn is a black snake so that's what i heard
When Carter first found the tomb, he was bitten by a mosquito and developed malaria. He died of this. Two others on the expedition also died.
they say there is but no that's not true
Yes there is a curse on Tutankhamuns tomb
No it not true
to make shore no one stole the gold from the Tome
no but lord Carnarvon was, he died only a few moths after they found king tut
King Tuts last name was actually Tutankhamun's The mummy of King Tut was found in 1922 by Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon. There was a curse on whoever disturbed the tomb of King Tutankhamun!
Mr. Howard Carter and he lived to be 66 he did not die of the curse. BUT GET THIS... 22 people died who was involved in King Tut himself's tomb. and 1 suicidal was involved in this event as long as a dog as well. do u think that is a curse or coincidence?
he was born in 9 may 1874 and he died in 2 march 1939 people believe that he died from the curse of tutankhamun and some people dont i dont
yes
There wasn't actually a curse from King Tut it was just a myth
Yes, a curse was put on the tomb. But curses are hocus pocus, not to be believed.
Because it has a guardian from tutankhamun a god protecting his land
I don't think it did
to make shore no one stole the gold from the Tome
King Tut's curse was blamed for the death of Howard Carter and his photographer Denny.
