Many treasures were found in the chambers of Tutankhamun’s tomb. Truly incredible gold pieces. In addition, the pharaoh’s death mask is spectacular. However, there are things that still have a veil of mystery.
We are going to mention 5 questions that are still strange, without a solution in this archaeological site. We describe them below:
1) The “alien dagger”
This is a dagger that was over 3,000 years old at the site, but showed no signs of rust. When analyzing it, they noticed a strange mixture of nickel and cobalt; which is only found in meteorites.

4) Red spots on paints
The chamber that housed the mummy had strange red spots. It was deduced that they were fungi, which appeared because the paints were not allowed to dry properly. However: how could those fungi survive for 3,000 years?

5) The Curse of the Young Pharaoh
Finally, on the walls of the site there was a threat to those who broke into the funerary recital. People took this lightly, but within ten years there were strange deaths in the group that worked to excavate the tomb.
The “curse of Tutankhamun” is almost a myth: movies have been made and books written. The truth is that there was a threat written in the form of a curse in hieroglyphics. Also, that there were accidents and strange deaths.
