Tutankhamen and Egyptology

"Just below the tomb of Rameses VI in the Valley of the Tombs of the Kings, on the 29th of November, 1922, there took place one of the most mommentous events in the history of all archaeology--an event which has kindled the imagiation of the world, which has made the strange name of an ancient Egyptian king a household word in every civilized country, and which has done more to quicken popular interest in the history of the past than any other event in the whole realm of scientific research."
