Of the fame that his mummy would gain
Event: Howard Carter unseals the inner chamber of Tutankhamun’s tomb
Year: 1923

Just back from Egypt. Great place for a vacation. His death mask and wooden burial chamber in the Egyptian Museum are unbelievable and can be viewed from a distance of just inches.
The verse above is quite sublime.
