Tutankhamun's curse

Year 11 Ancient History

Year 11 Ancient History students have become budding archaeologists turning the quad into Tutankhamun’s tomb. Using a detailed map and trundle wheels the team set out with chalk to create the tomb with passageway, antechamber, annex, burial chamber and treasury. They warned students wanting to enter the tomb to be aware of the curse of Tutankhamun’s tomb. This year is 100 years since Howard Carter uncovered the tomb and captured the world’s imagination about ancient Egypt and a little known Pharaoh. 

Finally, a joke:

Why didn't Tutankhamun have a great tall pyramid?

Because he had a pharaoh heights.
