More than 3,000 years ago, King Tutankhamun s desiccated body was lovingly wrapped and sent into the future as an immortal god. After resting undisturbed for more than three millennia, King Tut s mummy was suddenly awakened in 1922. Archaeologist Howard Carter had discovered the boy-king s tomb, and the soon-to-be famous mummy s story even more dramatic than King Tut s life began. The mummy s afterlife is a modern story, not an ancient one. Award-winning science writer Jo Marchant traces the mummy s story from its first brutal autopsy in 1925 to the most recent arguments over its DNA. From the glamorous treasure hunts of the 1920s to today s high-tech scans in volatile modern Egypt, Marchant introduces us to the brilliant and sometimes flawed people who have devoted their lives to revealing the mummy s secrets, unravels the truth behind the hyped-up TV documentaries, and explains what science can and can t tell us about King Tutankhamun.
