Hundreds of years before the birth of Christ, a remarkable civilization developed in Egypt. Where they built the oldest of the seven wonders, the Mysterious Pyramid. It's unbelievable, but it's true that the pyramid is the only one of the seven wonders that still stands tall on the ground.

Its structure is very important in all branches of modern science and architecturally such structures are the most earthquake resistant and durable. Only recently has it become clear that the pyramids are actually rational structures.

The architectural influence of the pyramids is worldwide. Pyramid-like structures have been built all over the world.



Just imagine, compared to the people in the picture above, how the big stones that the arrows were pointing at were lifted up so high. There can be many ways, but we have to think about the period we are talking about.

About 1400 years ago, our Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) died. Jesus Christ was born about 600 years before that. What we are talking about today is about 3500 years ago.

That is, about 1400 + 400 + 3500 = 5500 years ago, how were the unusually large stones raised so high compared to humans? It is a great mystery to modern man. We all can imagine how impossible it is to drag such a big stone without any vehicle or machine on a normal road. But how impossible it is to drag such a large stone across the sands of the Mysore desert is beyond our imagination. Anyone who has ever ridden a bike on sand will see how sand drags objects that move along it.

Why, 5500 thousand years ago in Egypt, there was no such technology in the whole world, with the help of which it was possible to build these huge structures.



Therefore, many people feel the existence of some mysterious supernatural power behind these huge structures.

The Egyptian people then considered the pharaonic kings as their gods and after their death they placed their mummified corpses in their tombs with great wealth. To make the tombs of the pharaohs safe enough, a huge structure in the shape of a pyramid was built on it. The bigger the king, the bigger the pyramid.

According to the information obtained from the research, between 1539 BC and 1075 BC, about 63 tombs were built in the form of pyramids or by cutting pure limestone. The entrance to most of them is secret and the path is very long and gradually descends through a complex arrangement of numerous small and large corridors until it finally ends in the tombs of the pharaohs. The tombs were full of various symbols, pictures carved on the walls, information about journeys to the other world and all the necessary materials for a new life. I have already talked about wealth. In the very center of its rooms were the burial chambers of the gilded pharaohs.

These rooms were carefully sealed, and to protect the tomb's valuables, the best Egyptian architects of the day were tasked with devising ways to fool thieves. Large and solid granite plugs were sometimes used to block passages. Despite numerous measures taken to deter thieves, such as false doors, secret rooms, etc., the entrances to the tombs were almost always secured with curses.

But over time, most prevention plans failed. Thieves and robbers of ancient times were able to find their way into the tomb and steal all the treasures in their own way.

 


For the same reason, i.e. the arrival of the treasure, hundreds of explorers ended their lives in the Ark of Egypt by wandering around the tombs.

Expeditions to explore the ancient architecture of Egypt really began in the 18th century.

In the 19th century, Europeans also became interested in this treasure hunt. But in most cases they had to be disappointed because after enough exploration, after the discovery of the tomb, someone or something had already taken the treasure.

Until the 18th century, ordinary people did not know about the existence of any curses on graves. But in the early 19th century, in 1922, Howard Carter and his team discovered the tomb of a pharaoh named Tuten Khamun and a large number of treasures. Since then, the curse in the tombs has come to everyone's attention. Because there was a curse carved on the entrance to the tomb. Which is known throughout the world as the Curse of Tuten Khamun.

In 1891, the young English archaeologist Howard Carter set foot on Egyptian soil. He is very interested in the ancient buildings of Egypt, because nowhere else in the world can one find such ancient and well-ordered examples of architecture. He worked for years. Using his indomitable artistry, Queen Hatsipsut spent about six years creating samples of the temple's murals.



From his research and findings during his years in Egypt, he felt that there was still at least one undiscovered tomb in Egypt. And that is the tomb of King Tuten Khamun, completely unknown among the pharaohs and his ideas were true.

Tuten Khamun was the 11th or 12th of the 18th dynasty of pharaohs. He lived from 1333 - 1324 BC According to some 1336 - 1327 BC He ruled Egypt until he married a young lady named Rani Ankhesenpatin. According to many researchers, Queen Ankhesenpatin was actually Tuten Khamun's sister.

Tuten Khamun's father's name was Akhenaten. Tuten Khamun succeeded his father to the throne. His father made great efforts during his reign to force the adoption of a new religion called "Aton" (Sun God). The early Egyptians worshiped "Amun" (god of wind and breath). His father began pressuring the Egyptian people to impose the religion he created and began destroying ancient religious places of worship and buildings. His aim was to abolish the name of Amun. As a result, chaos arose among the people of Egypt at the time. At this time, their father died, but why is it still unknown? However, according to most researchers, he was killed.



Tuten Khamun ascended the throne at the age of nine after the death of his father and re-introduced the old religion of "Amun" and changed his name accordingly to appease the people.

Tuten Khamun's real name was Tuten-Khaten as his father and his wife was Queen Ankhesenpatin. But after the death of his father, to increase support, Three soon changed his name from Tuten-Khaten to Tuten-Khamun and his wife to Ankhenpatin-Amun.

 

There are many theories among researchers about the name Tuten Khamun. Some say his name is Tuten-Khamun, some Tuten-Khamen, and some Tuten-Khattan. In fact, most of his names were written in hieroglyphic letters. Its meaning was incomprehensible to modern civilized people for about 1800 years, and the method of extracting its meaning was only discovered in the 19th century.

Hierography was one of the oldest ways of expressing language in writing. The oldest hieroglyphic writing found so far dates from about 3300 or 3200 years before the birth of Christ. There are no vowels in hieroglyphs. Because of this, it is almost impossible to find out exactly how to pronounce hieroglyphs.

And that is why there are different opinions about the correct pronunciation of the name Tuten Khamun.

Nowhere in history can we find out how Tuten Khamen died. But most researchers believed he was murdered. Tuten Khamun gave birth to two stillborn children. However, many researchers believe that since Tuten Khamun had no descendants, killing him would have easily secured the throne for the highest-ranking "Ay" who would have assisted the king at the time. "Ai" kills him instantly. Many have opined that Tuten Khamun's wife and the car driver who was driving him were also involved in this murder case.

There is a good reason for this to be true because after the death of Tuten Khamen, his next king Han "Ai" and unfortunately he didn't last long, the then general "Horem-Hab" took over. Both removed Tuten Khamenei's name from all royal documents, wall inscriptions and destroyed everything related to him. As a result, Tuten Khamen's name was erased from history forever. But his name remains on some unimportant buildings and small wares in the wrong order. "There was a pharaoh named Tuten Khamen" was the only evidence before 1922-1923.

After Tuten Khamun's tomb was discovered, his body was X-rayed about three times. According to the latest Exor data, experts from Egypt, Italy, Switzerland and National Geographic agree that Tuten Khamun was mortally wounded in his left leg for some reason and suffered a broken bone. As a result, Tuten Khamun died in a very short time.



Let's go back to Howard Carter's story. (beginning of the curse)

(From the research and discoveries he had made during his years in Egypt, he felt that there was still at least one undiscovered tomb in Egypt. And that was the tomb of King Tuten Khamun, the more unknown of the pharaohs, and his hypothesis was true.) Since then:

 

Howard Carter enlisted the help of a rich man named Lord Carnarvon to put his faith into action, that is, to find the tomb. Lord Carnarvon provided Howard Carter with all his expedition expenses.

At that time, everyone knew that all the tombs in the Valley of the Kings, that is, the valley intended for the burial of the Egyptian kings of the time, had already been discovered and most of the tomb's possessions had already been stolen by thieves and robbers. It was understood that nothing remained of the discoverer in the Royal Valley.

And it is done. The indomitable Howard Carter roamed the entire King Valley with his expedition team for five years, digging countless holes, but nothing worked. It was clear that he had wasted all his 5 years in failure.

Around 1922 Lord Carnarvon summoned Howard Carter to England and informed him that the three would not bear the expenses of the expedition. Thinking that all five years of Howard Carter's trouble would be for naught, he persuaded Carnarvon to pay for the last season of scrap.

 

This time when he came to Egypt, he brought a yellow canary with him. The informal meaning of "canary" in English is spy. Ackerney, Howard Carter's team leader, called him a "golden bird" that could lead us to the secret tomb. Looks like it.

On November 4, 1922, Howard Carter's staff encountered the entrance to Tuten Khamenei's tomb for the first time in their work. After removing nearly 200,000 tons of debris from the tomb of King Ramesses IV, they discovered a stone-hewn staircase. They climbed about 15 more similar stairs and finally came to an ancient and sealed door. A large hieroglyphic inscription above the door read: "Tuten Khamen".

 

Passing through its door, another identical door was found inside. Passing through this door, another similar door was found inside, and eventually the expedition reached the tomb of Tuten Khamun.

A golden casket was found inside. It was opened and another coffin of the same type was found inside. The coffin was opened to reveal an identical gilded coffin and eventually the mummified body of Tutankhamun inside.

Additionally, numerous valuable objects, most of which were gilded, were found in various rooms surrounding the entire tomb.

Below is a picture of some products:

 

The amount of this wealth was so high that in a word, after the discovery of Tuten Khamun's tomb, people from all over the world were amazed.

Because Tuten Khamun reigned the shortest of the pharaonic kings and was very unknown. If so much wealth is found in his tomb. So how many properties were hidden in the great tombs???

This is a very big question these days. But there is no point in thinking about them now, because they have already been taken over by thieves and robbers.

Because Tuten Khamun was such an unknown pharaoh, the robbers may not have even tried to find his tomb. In Ekran, the only intact tomb discovered in the modern world is that of Tuten Khamun.

Curse change

The night the expedition first discovered Tuten Khamun's tomb, Howard Carter returned home to find several yellow feathers in the hands of his servant. A horrified worker learns that a cobra has eaten his canary.

Howard Carter was a big believer in superstition and had no qualms about asking a worker to make sure the snake was out of the house. The worker took Howard Carter's hand and begged him:

“Pharaoh's snake ate your bird because it helped them find the tomb. You should not disturb them in the Pharaoh's tomb."

In fact, the cobra and the dragon were symbols of protection for the pharaohs. If you look at the armor of Tuten Khamen, you will see the image of a cobra on the head.

Carter soon sent a telegram to Lord Carnarvon asking him to come to Egypt to see his discovery for himself.

Lord Carnarvon was forbidden to go to Egypt by his friend Count Louis Hamon, who was known to have seen his hands. Because he accidentally learns that "Lord Carnarvon will suffer an injury in the tomb of Tuten Khamen from which he will never recover and will die in Egypt."

For five years there was no one who, without expecting anything in return, would give money to search for Tuten Chamen's tomb.

So Lord Carnarvon defied all odds and arrived in Egypt and with Howard Carter was the first to enter the tomb in 3000 years.

 

It was suspected that the tombs of the pharaohs were cursed. Because after all the tombs were discovered, it was found that even after the tombs were sealed, someone entered and took away the portable possessions. Even if there was a curse, it could fall on someone.

But Tuten Khamun's tomb was the only tomb that no one entered after he was buried.

The first to discover it was to be damned, and so it was. Perhaps that is why the Curse of Tuten Khamun has come to everyone's attention.

However, Lord Carnarvon mysteriously but literally did not live long after the tomb was opened. He became ill from a small mosquito bite, which later cut himself while dressing and became infected, which eventually turned into pneumonia. As his condition worsened, he was rushed to a Cairo hospital.

 

At the time, the controversial British writer Mary Curelli warned everyone:

All around there is a certain apprehension of tampering with the tomb of the only undiscovered pharaoh, buried so dignified and undisturbed, and his treasures deposited in his tomb—and I can think of nothing else. I have a very old and rare Arabic book called "The Egyptian History of the Pyramids". It says "The most terrible punishment awaits the one who enters the Pharaoh's tomb." The book mentions several poisons and they are placed in the pharaoh's coffin so neatly that whoever touches it does not even know how they will suffer. "

So I ask, “Was it really a mosquito bite that made Lord Carnarvon so sick?

 

Just 7 weeks after the discovery of a tomb that lived up to its word, Lord Carnarvon died in agony at the age of 57 and very mysteriously that same night, thousands of miles away, his pet dog began to howl bloody and ghostly against something unseen. He dies with a loud roar. At the time of Lord Carnarvon's death, the entire city of Cairo was plunged into a sea of ​​darkness without electricity.

Even more puzzling, an examination of Tuten Khamun's mummified body just two days after Lord Carnarvon's death revealed a wound on the mummy's left cheek in the exact same spot as Carnarvon's.

The issue was widely publicized in newspapers and magazines around the world, and many newspapers began to exaggerate it. At the entrance to the tomb they preached in hiaglyphic letters:

"Death comes on swift wings to him who disturbs the king's peace."

According to the papers, Howard Carter removed it once he realized its significance. Because if the meaning of this is understood, the workers working on his tomb may be afraid and it may stop the search of the tomb.

At this time, many famous people expressed their opinion in favor of the existence of the curse, one of them was Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. Who Wrote Sherlock Holmes is still the most engaging detective story for people all over the world.

About 500 years ago, the famous seer "Nostradamus" also prophesied in his book Quatrain 9.7 that:

"He who finds the grave escapes

and reveals it

No one can prove it

But Satan strikes him

Maybe he'll be a Brit or a Norman King

No evidence of a curse can be found

But the faith of many is enough".

(Note that Lord Carnarvon was a member of the noble family of earls who ruled the country in the emperor's absence.)

Let it all end with the death of Lord Carnarvon. But even more unusual things began to happen.

A few days after Carnarvon's death, Arthur Mace, the expedition's other leading archaeologist, began to experience severe fatigue at the same Continental Hotel and, to the shock of both the expedition and local doctors, collapsed shortly afterwards.

George Gould, Carnarvon's friend, left for Egypt after learning of Carnarvon's death. But the next day, after seeing the ill-fated tomb, he collapsed with a high fever and died within 12 hours.

An industrialist named Joel Wood visited the tomb and died of a high fever on his way home. Doctors could not find a proper explanation for this.

A radiologist named Archibald Reid attempted to determine Tuten Khamun's age and cause of death by reporting X-rays of Tuten Khamun using the most advanced technology of the time. Complaining that he was very tired, he returned to England. But he died mysteriously shortly after landing in England.

Carnarvon's private secretary Richard Bethell was found dead in his bed four months after the tomb was discovered, and his father committed suicide after hearing the news.

Of the few people present at the unveiling of the tomb, 12 died of unusual causes over the next 6 years. Similarly, all but 2 died abnormally within the next 7 years.

Lord Carnarvon's half-brother goes mad and commits suicide. Later, about 21 people variously involved in mining died.

Howard Carter was the only miner to die of old age in 1939. But not everyone was so lucky.

While many Egyptologists and academics doubted the existence of the curse, many others died as a result of the curse.

France has agreed with Egypt to organize an exhibition of ancient artifacts found in the tomb of Tuten Khamun. Mohamed Ibrahim, director of Egypt's Department of Antiquities and Historical Materials, opposes this because he had a dream of dire consequences if these materials reach Egypt. But he returned after failing to convince the government through negotiations and was promptly killed by a private car in broad daylight on an empty street.

 

Perhaps the strangest case of curses occurred in the case of Richard Adamson.

Richard Adamson was the only person involved in the discovery of Tuten Chamen's tomb to survive until 1969. He was Lord Carnarvon's bodyguard. His wife died within 24 hours of his first speaking out against Tuten Khamenei's curse. When he later spoke out against the curse again, his son broke his back in a plane crash. But he was still not ready to believe the curse and repeated the same in an interview on British television. He was killed that same day when his taxi crashed on the way from a TV studio, the car swerving suddenly and passing inches from his head. Maybe he knew some self-defense techniques because he once served as a bodyguard at work. With numerous fractures and bruises, he was taken to the hospital, where he suffered the curse for the first time in his 70-year life.

Another major proof of the curse came in 1972 when the valuables from Tuten Khamen's tomb were brought to a very famous exhibition at the British Museum in London. This incident occurred in the case of Dr. Gamal Mehrez, who held the same position after Mohamed Ibrahim, the director of the Egyptian Department of Antiquities and Historical Materials, whom we mentioned earlier. He taunted Tuten Khamun and said "I have spent my whole life researching the archeology of Egypt and I know that all the accidents related to Tuten Khamun's curse are just coincidences, they really are coincidences". Perhaps because of this, perhaps coincidentally, he died at night after examining boxes of antiquities from Tuten Khamun's tomb brought by Royal Air Force aircraft from England.

Crews of these Royal Air Force aircraft in England also suffered unnatural deaths, physical accidents, mishaps, disasters, etc. in later life.

Flight Lieutenant Rick Laurie died of a heart attack four years later. Perhaps no one then considered it a Tuten Khamun curse. But Rick Laurie's wife publicly announced in front of everyone that she died because of Tuten Khamun's curse.

Every year around the time Tuten Khamun's grave goods were brought to England, an engineer named Ken Parkinson suffered a heart attack and died of a heart attack in 1978.

Rick Laurie and Ken Parkinson had never suffered a heart attack before and were declared perfectly fit by military doctors.

During this flight, Chief Technical Officer "Ian Lansdown" jokingly kicked the box containing Tuten Khamun's body and said, "I kicked the most expensive thing in the world ha ha ha... A few days later, when I was getting off another plane, the stairs of the plane suddenly collapsed under legs and "Ian Lansdown" was mortally wounded.

Jim Webb, the first lieutenant of that flight, lost his belongings in the fire.

A waiter on that flight named Brian Rounsfall pretended to play cards on the coffin carrying Tuten Khamun's body. He also died mysteriously after suffering two consecutive heart attacks.

The female officer of the same aircraft was forced to resign from the English Royal Air Force team after a critical mission.

Many say that curses have no basis, the biggest proof of this is Howard Carter. He who had worked on the tomb long before it was opened and who had spent most of his life cataloging the thousands of Dravidans found in the tomb and making pictures or samples of where and how things were, was the first to attack him if this curse existed . used to But nothing happened.

Many who believe in curses believe that Howard Carter's love for Egypt may have saved him. Lord Carnarvon helped finance the discovery of Tuten Khamun's tomb, but not entirely selflessly. After the discovery of the tomb, Tuten Khamun arranged for all the goods from the tomb to go to England himself.



Then Howard Carter, who respects the history and traditions of Egypt, opposed it. Although he was English, he worked to preserve the archaeological remains of various tombs in Egypt from the age of 17 and continued to work with Egypt until the last moment of his life. His love for Egypt became his saving grace, despite his complete distrust of the curse itself. This is evident from the epitaph on his tombstone. The epitope is as follows:

"Long live your spirit,

May you spend millions of years

You who love Thebes,

Sit facing the north wind,

Your eyes see happiness"

(Note: the exact same thing was written on Tuten Khamun's tomb.)

 

This curse is not something only superstitious and uneducated people believe in. Many scholars and scientifically minded people also agree that they believe this. After Sir Arthur Conan Doyle, one of the followers of this curse is the internationally renowned archaeologist Zahi Hawaz. He had many years of experience working with various tombs in Egypt. In 2005, he himself was the supervisor of the team that performed the last three-dimensional CT scan of Tuten Khamun's corpse.

He said: “I do not rule out the possibility of a curse because many things have happened in my life today. Today our team met with a very fatal accident but narrowly escaped. While we were doing the CT scan, a heavy storm started outside and our CT Scan computer was completely shut down for two hours for no reason.”

Finally he concluded by saying:

"I think we should still believe in the curse of the pharaohs"

The mystery indeed remains and will remain. Because it's much easier to believe in curses than to believe that countless people who have been linked to the same grave over the years are dying by coincidence.

Perhaps a dark and supernatural force guarding the sacred buried mummies of pharaohs 3,500 years ago still remains unseen on Earth, witnessing endless mysteries and accidents.

The above statements may be true or false.

Since science has not proven them to be false, there is no point in disbelieving them.

Again, since science hasn't even proven that they're actually possible, there's no point in believing them.

I am not informed enough to judge what is right and what is wrong.

But when we pretend not to see it and continue to call it a coincidence despite the overwhelming evidence, the question really does cross my mind.

Which one is actually correct?????

(I don't have an answer to this question, but I'm waiting for your opinion)

Thank you all.
