To celebrate the 100th year anniversary for the discovery of King Tut’s tomb we are highlighting National Geographic Explorer and Egyptian archaeologist @NoraShawki “The extraordinary discovery of King Tut’s tomb had ignited a spark in me as a little girl & kickstarted my own career in archaeology. This discovery is groundbreaking, not only for the sole purpose that it belonged to a royal king but also because it revived a global interest in Ancient Egypt; often referred to as Egyptomania. This anniversary signifies a shift in the way we understand and interpret the ancient world; more importantly; where we come from.” – Nora Shawki @insidenatgeo
