The mishandling? Yeah, Tut got majorly screwed. The tomb isn't his, the artifacts aren't his, the sarcophagus isn't his, and his mummy was not properly done.

I mean, it makes sense if you consider that his whole death was just an accident and his palace was left scrambling to provide him with something. Of course, it did work out for him. The placement and size of his tomb and his relative obscurity meant that grave-robbers didn't steak from him like they did with other tombs.

More that I feel lied to. There was this whole persuasive book that claimed that he was murdered, and it was fascinating, but now come to find out that it was just mishandling. Grrr.

Understandable. Maybe the book was made before the 2006 scan that confirmed the mishandling.

Good, this is a very valid thing to be really upset about. My whole week has been ruined already!

I was taught that he was murdered in elementary school but it was common knowledge by 2007 that he wasn't murdered.
