(BBC Global) July 18, 2024: In 1922, expert photographer Harry Burton joined archaeologist Howard Carter's team as they uncovered the tomb of ancient Egyptian child King Tutankhamun. Ten years later and with over 5,000 objects from the site documented, Burton had amassed an incredible record of photographs from that world-famous discovery.
