Publisher's Synopsis
Following the 1922 opening of King Tutankhamun's tomb in ancient Egypt, several individuals associated with the excavation became inexplicably ill and died horrible and mysterious deaths, leading to the belief that there was a "Curse" associated with the tomb. Ancient Egypt was also the site of mass burials of literally millions of birds, fish, baboons and other animals, interred in such scrupulous manner as to defy logic. I.L. Cohen has spent over 30 years reanalyzing the structure and contents of Tut's tomb, as well as these mass burials and numerous other enigmas of ancient Egypt. Cohen's unifying solution to all of these mysteries is so startling as to warrant a reappraisal of ancient Egyptian civilization and, indeed, of the history of mankind itself.
