These mummies, including Hatshepsut, Tuthmosis, and Ramses, were mummified over 4000 years ago and are in remarkably good shape. The kings and queens have slender bodies, and the mummies appear smaller and shorter compared to their original size.

In November 1922, Tutankhamun’s tomb was discovered in the Valley of the Kings by Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon. When the burial chamber was opened on February 17, 1923, Egyptologists and government officials were present to witness the unveiling of the king’s mummified body, which was adorned with valuable grave goods and lay within a golden coffin.
