King Tutankhamun@DM

 

A scientist claims to have cracked the cause of the 'Pharaoh's curse' that was believed to have killed more than 20 people who opened King Tutankhamun's tomb in 1922.
Ancient Egyptian text threatens 'death by a disease that no doctor can diagnose' to anyone who disturbs royal mummified remains - but Ross Fellowes has suggested there was a biological reason behind the deaths.
The study determined the cause was radiation poisoning from natural elements containing uranium and toxic waste that was deliberately put inside the sealed vault.
Exposure to substances could have led to certain cancers, like the one that took the life of archaeologist Howard Carter - the first person to walk inside Tut's tomb more than 100 years ago.
The theory effectively proves that the tomb was indeed 'cursed' - although in a deliberate, biological way - rather than in a supernatural manner that has been suggested by some Ancient Egyptologists.
