Artifacts from King Tut's tomb are going on tour next year to mark the upcoming 100th anniversary of the discovery of the Egyptian pharaoh's resting place.
The California Science Center says the exhibit, "KING TUT: Treasures of the Golden Pharaoh," will be on view at the Los Angeles museum for 10 months before heading to Europe in January 2019 as part of a 10-city international tour.

Dr. Diane Perlov, Deputy Director for Exhibits at the California Science Center, told KPCC the exhibit will be "more of an immersive-type experience" as each artifact is paired with multimedia to tell the story of Tutankhamun's afterlife.
The museum says the exhibition represents the largest collection of artifacts and gold from Tutankhamun's tomb ever to go on public display outside of Egypt. It says 40 percent of the items are leaving Egypt for the first and last time before going on permanent display at a new museum being built near the Giza Pyramids in Egypt.

Proof of Internal Chambers

Proof! There are shafts and chambers inside the great Sphinx of Giza near Cairo ("Mars"), Egypt, accessible via an opening at the top of the Sphinx's head.
This video presents evidence from a Harvard University professor of archaeology who describes the interior of the Sphinx's chambers, including the tomb of the first Pharaoh Menes. Could this also be the location of the legendary Hall of Records spoken of by America's "Sleeping Prophet" Edgar Cayce? (Images were taken from Google Images for educational purposes only).
