书籍简介

人们通常认为，当霍华德-卡特和卡纳冯勋爵发现的成千上万件令人眼花缭乱的物品被运往开罗埃及博物馆展出时，图坦卡蒙的故事就结束了。但这位少年国王的故事远不止于此。《图坦卡蒙和改变世界的古墓》探讨了自古墓被发现以来的 100 年间对图坦卡蒙的研究，从古墓中几件由来自外太空的陨铁制成的物品，到显示图坦卡蒙实际上可能是一名上过战场的勇士的新证据。作者鲍勃-布赖尔还带领读者了解近期对图坦卡蒙木乃伊进行 CT 扫描的幕后过程，揭示这位年轻法老的更多秘密。

本书还阐述了图坦卡蒙陵墓的发现对埃及学以外领域的广泛影响。布赖尔研究了古墓的发现如何影响埃及政治，以及如何促使殖民主义在埃及垮台。在埃及之外，为世界各地博物馆筹集巨额资金的现代大型展览都始于图坦卡蒙，而将每件在原地发现的物品在移动之前都记录下来的想法也始于图坦卡蒙。在很大程度上，现代人对古埃及的痴迷 DL 埃及狂热 DL 也是由围绕着古墓发现的图坦卡蒙狂热所推动的。《图坦卡蒙和改变世界的古墓》以新的研究成果为基础，以生动的细节为读者介绍了世界上伟大的考古发现。

It is often thought that the story of Tutankhamun ended when the thousands of dazzling items discovered by Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon were transported to the Egyptian Museum in Cairo and put on display. But there is far more to the boy-king's story. Tutankhamun and the Tomb that Changed the World explores the 100 years of research on Tutankhamun that have taken place since the tomb's discovery, from the several objects in the tomb made of meteoritic iron that came from outer space to new evidence that shows that Tutankhamun may actually have been a warrior who went into battle. Author Bob Brier also takes readers behind the scenes of the recent CT-scans of Tutankhamuns mummy to reveal more secrets of the young pharaoh.

The book also illustrates the wide-ranging impact the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb had on fields beyond Egyptology. Brier examines how the discovery of the tomb influenced Egyptian politics and contributed to the downfall of colonialism in Egypt. Outside Egypt, the modern blockbuster exhibitions that raise great sums of monies for museums around the world all began with Tutankhamun, as did the idea of documenting every object discovered in place before it was moved. And to a great extent, the modern fascination with ancient Egypt DL Egyptomania DL was also greatly promoted by the Tutmania that surrounded the discovery of the tomb. Deeply informed by the latest research and presented in vivid detail, Tutankhamun and the Tomb that Changed the World is a compelling introduction to the worlds greatest archaeological discovery.
