The face of Egypt's most famous ancient ruler, King Tutankhamun, has been put on public display for the first time.Archaeologists took the mummy from its stone sarcophagus and placed it in a climate-controlled case inside his tomb in Luxor's Valley of the Kings.The event comes 85 years to the day after the pharaoh's tomb was discovered by British explorer Howard Carter.Until now, only about 50 living people have seen the face of the boy king, who died more than 3,000 years ago.As experts lifted Tutankhamun from his coffin they briefly set aside the white linen covering his remains, revealing a shrivelled black face and body.

Take a look at the people painted on the walls in the background. Look up the paintings on his throne. Ever notice that they always show one of the golden masks but never show the statues of him from his tome? Look up statues of his father (Akhenaten) and his grandmother queen Tiye. Then for laughs, pretend you didn't do any of the above and look up the modern "recreations" as shown in the response video from krissyeh above.

It's called decomposition. The mummified a white person and the same thing happened on a tv show with a cadaver who donated their body to science I believe p.

he was mixed he was like a carmel skin color. almost all of the egyptions have a carmel skin color. the skin turns dark when the body becomes old after it dies idk how but it does.
