We went to the King Tut exhibit on Saturday and I thought it was pretty cool. They had a nice display of artifacts from various Egyptian tombs not only Tut. The level of detail and amount of work to construct many of the items we saw was incredible. The people that made them were super-talented! I don't think I have the patience or have the talent to make them. Also, learned a few new things I didn't know before. A few things were that: Tut's death was unexpected so his tomb was not designed for him but probably one of his chief advisors, the mummy of Tut was covered in 7-8 layers of different coffins, gold body masks, and head mask, and the internal organs were stored separately in different vases. Highly recommended!
