NEWSPAPERMAN TELLS OF HIS
VISIT TO KING TUT’S TOMB
j LUXOR, Egypt, Feb. 29.—A corres-'
pondent of a newspaper in the east
was the first newspaperman admitted
i to view the gorgeous mummy case of
Tutenkliamun, which was disclosed
the other day by the raising of the
massive lid of the sarcophagus.
At the first view7 of this wonderful
bizzare and golden coffin with the
face, shoulders, breast and arms of
the pharaoh standing out in boldest
relief on the metal, one realized that
this discovery was indeed an event
in the annals of Egyptology.
Nothing has ever been found in1
Egypt before resembling this colos
sus of gold with its strangely naturali
oddly captivating face and supreme
dignity of line. The only parallel
one can call to mind is the great
stone effigy carved on the lid of the
sareaphagus of Merenptah, the re
puted pharaoh of the exodus.
It now seems clear that the effigy
1 of Merenptan, whose sarcophagus in
his tomb, a scant hundred yards
from that of Tutenkliamun and
' hitherto regarded as unique in Egypt,
I merely represents in stone the habit
ual , form of the mummy case of
I Egypt’s kings.
I The sight of the sheets of gold
| gleaming on the mummy’s case of
Tutenkhamun tells its own tale of the
rew7ard that awaited the enterprise of
the ancient tomb robbers, wdiose ac
tivities were so great that of all the
sepulchres of Egypt’s old rulers, only
Tutenkhamun has been inviolate.
When the newspaperman entered
the tomb he found a sheet of glass
laid across the open sarcophagus be
neath the cracked granite lid which
hung from its tackle some three
feet above. The first sight of the
dead king’s effigy was overwhelm
ing. It might have been a huge gold
den idol. An incredibly bizarre ef
fect was lent by the solid, folded head
dress, the long curved golden beard,
! the thickness of a ship’s cable and the
gigantic flail and crook grasped in the
great hands.
