Geomantic omen in the tomb of Tangkamen

This gold mask was discovered from archaeology, because Tutankhamun's mausoleum was well preserved when it was discovered, and there was no trace of being destroyed by grave robbers. 1922, two British archaeologists, george herbert and howard carter, accidentally excavated this ancient tomb, and they were very surprised by all kinds of high-grade funerary objects inside. One of the most dazzling is the gold mask, which was sent to the National Museum of Egypt for exhibition.

Tutankhamun Mausoleum is located in the Valley of the Kings in Egypt, where there are more than 60 tombs of ancient Egyptian pharaohs. Among many tombs, Tutankhamun's mausoleum is nothing special, but only his mausoleum is widely known. The reason is that his tomb was not destroyed by grave robbers, and it is the only well-preserved imperial tomb.

After the gold mask was discovered, it was sent to the museum for collection and became one of the treasures of the town hall. This mask is made of 1 1 kg pure gold, and is also inlaid with precious stones and colored glass. The forehead of the mask is engraved with the shape of an eagle and a cobra, symbolizing the supreme kingship. Eyebrows and eyeliner are inlaid with lapis lazuli, and eyes are made of mica and obsidian. The whole mask carved out the Pharaoh's delicate and handsome face.

When Pharaoh's mummy was excavated, a golden mask was put on his head. The size of the whole mask is very commensurate with the face of a real person, which shows that its workmanship is very excellent. According to archaeologists' speculation, the value of this gold mask is about 3 to 10 trillion dollars.

This mysterious Pharaoh's mausoleum and his gold mask add another unsolved case to ancient Egypt.
