Accurate research associated with a unique dissemination and narrative ability.
The book In search of Tutankhamun by the Director of the Egyptian Museum of Turin, Christian Greco, reveals previously unpublished information and anecdotes dedicated to one of the most mysterious characters of ancient Egypt, the pharaoh Tutankhamun, and his discoverer, the archaeologist Howard Carter.
Christian Greco accompanies readers on a fascinating journey that begins with the religious reform of the “heretical” pharaoh Akhenaten and explores the great mysteries linked to Tutankhamun – from his ancestry to the causes of death – up to investigating the impact that the fabulous objects found in tomb they have had on the contemporary imagination.
