330   $aThe book 'Tutankhamun and Carter: Assessing the Impact of a Major Find' explores the historical and cultural significance of the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb by Howard Carter in 1922. Edited by Rogério Sousa, Gabriele Pieke, and Tine Bagh, the volume brings together various scholarly perspectives from a conference held in Lisbon, a century after the tomb's official opening. It examines the impact of the tomb's artifacts on both scientific study and popular culture, highlighting the challenges and opportunities they present for Egyptologists. Key topics include the study of lesser-known objects from the tomb, the technical analysis of famous artifacts like the golden throne, and the enduring fascination with Tutankhamun in media and public imagination. The book aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the ongoing research and cultural relevance of Tutankhamun's burial treasures, appealing to both academic and general audiences interested in Egyptology and archaeology.$7Generated by AI.
