King Tut's Chair

[winetourdriver01]

King Tutankhamun's throne chair is an extraordinary and exquisite piece, among the greatest wonders of ancient Egyptian civilization. The throne was discovered in 1922 by the British archeologist Howard Carter. It was found beneath the Hippopotamus funerary bed in the antechamber of the Tomb of Tutankhamun.

1. Wow!

2. Yes

But being the superstitious type, I wouldn't sit in it for money. Spirits, and not good ones, tend to attach themselves to things like this.

3. Ha ha heh...I don't blame you! I wonder what a chair like this would cost, in today's money,

and how much of the chair is actually gold and jewels?

Again, Wow!

And don't forget what happened to those who opened the tomb.
