(Picture: Yui Mok/PA Wire)Tutankhamun’s tomb was discovered in 1922 and provided some great insight into ancient Egypt. There is plenty to learn about the discovery, including when and how the tomb was found, and why it had such an impact.
For example, it may come as a surprise that Tutankhamun has no heart or that the tomb had actually been broken into twice previously.
