King Tutankhamun's mummy is still in his tomb KV 62 ( inside a climate-controlled glass case) in the Valley of the Kings.

What baffle me the most is that these treasures around the world specifically in Africa had laid there for centuries and centuries... just because they discovered it ... they claimed it, took it to their country and displayed it ... all of this pretending that it's in the name of science and knowledge so that they can hide their own selfish and greedy actions ... what is more sad is when the original countries reclaim their ancestral heritage from museums the latter say that these artefacts are better preserved in better conditions in their museums than in the country of origin where it might be destroyed.... these artefacts were laying there for millions of years dude and well preserved ... let's face the fact that museums know all so well that returning these artefacts to their original countries means their death cause the museums will surely be vastly emptied and they won't make money anymore ... and what is sadder is the fact that most of these stolen artefacts laid for years and years in their stores sh#%!t unrevealed to the public ... so disrespectful ... so shameless ... so greedy ... so selfish ...

Wonder how these so called knowledge knowledge searchers would have reacted if the situation was vice versa where paintings musics scripts books or stone age nordics or celtics assets fragmented walls of churches or castles stolen from them displayed elsewhere and when they reclaimed their belongings all they get as answer is " these artefacts are better preserved here that on their countries of origin " 😅
