Close-up side profile of the outer golden coffin (sarcophagus lid) of Pharaoh Tutankhamun, 18th Dynasty ruler of ancient Egypt (reigned c. 1332–1323 BC), housed at the Egyptian Museum on Tahrir Square, Cairo. The image clearly shows the nemes headdress with uraeus cobra, the plaited ceremonial beard, and the crossed crook (Heka) and flail (Nekhakha) scepters — symbols of royal authority — along with a richly inlaid collar combining blue faience, gold, and carnelian beadwork. Tutankhamun's funerary treasures, discovered by Howard Carter in 1922 in the Valley of the Kings, Luxor, are among the most significant archaeological finds in Egyptian history.
