King Tut as he is often called fascinates us all as a direct result of the treasures found in the Valley of the Kings.

Where is he now?

Well the vast majority of his treasures went to the Cairo Museum whilst a few are in the Luxor Museum, including a superb head of Hathor,  but what of Tutankhamun himself? Well he is still in his sarcophagus within his own tomb in the Valley of the Kings. His face still covered with a gold mask as is has been since he was placed in his tomb.

The gold mask of Tutankhamun

The pictures on the right show Tutankhamun's gold mask. This was placed over the plain gold mask that he still wears, to this day, in his tomb in the Valley of the Kings.
