About This Novel

On November 4, 1922, British archaeologist Howard Carter discovered the tomb of King Tutankhamen of the 18th Dynasty of ancient Egypt in the Valley of the Kings in Thebes. The tomb shocked the world with the richness and exquisiteness of the unearthed artifacts and the complete preservation of the tomb, making it one of the greatest archaeological discoveries of the last century. Shortly after the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb, the sponsor of the archaeological excavation, Count Carnarvon, died unexpectedly. This seemed to verify the existence of the "Pharaoh's Curse", which caused panic in the entire Egyptian archaeological community. Tutankhamun's tomb was therefore shrouded in a veil of mystery. In order to solve the mystery of this widespread and mysterious "Pharaoh's Curse", this book will use a scientific attitude, use a large amount of literature and archaeological data, and use the Egyptians' view of the afterlife as an entry point, and then reveal the Egyptian religious beliefs, funeral customs, tomb architectural styles and their functions behind the "Pharaoh's Curse". In order to achieve the purpose of popularizing knowledge about ancient Egyptian civilization to readers.
