Priceless - National Treasure of Egypt
Ancient Egypt, Valley of the Kings
1323 BCE
The golden funeral mask of Egyptian Pharaoh Tutankhamun is one of the most iconic artifacts from ancient Egypt. Made of solid gold and inlaid with lapis lazuli, carnelian, and colored glass, it weighs over 22 pounds.
Discovered in 1922 by Howard Carter in the Valley of the Kings, this mask represents the pinnacle of ancient Egyptian craftsmanship and provides invaluable insight into the burial practices of pharaohs.
