This landmark catalogue chronicles the iconic objects recovered from the boy pharaoh's nearly intact burial chamber in Egypt's Valley of the Kings, from the gleaming golden death mask to intricately crafted ceremonial chariots and jewelled pectorals, each one a testament to the extraordinary artistry of New Kingdom Egypt circa 1332–1323 BCE.\n\nProduced in conjunction with a historic travelling exhibition that visited some of America's most prestigious institutions — including the National Gallery of Art, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the Field Museum of Natural History — the work stands as an enduring record of one of the most celebrated museum events of the twentieth century. The authoritative text illuminates the religious, cultural, and dynastic significance of each object, drawing the reader into the opulent world of ancient Egyptian royalty and raising profound questions about power, mortality, and the afterlife that echo across millennia.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50620321235163,"sku":"2026200018445-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/8cb336a7-b790-4cc2-bdad-cc10041c22a0.png?v=1791873226","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026200018445-secondhand-treasures-of-tutankhamun","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
