Tutankhamun Tomb Robberies

http://www.touregypt.net/featurestories/tutrobbery.htm
The latest Tour Egypt featured article is about the tomb robberies that took place in the tomb of Tutankhamun before its discovery by Howard Carter. Although it is often discussed as though the tomb was intact, it had in fact been targeted by tomb robbers who removed a number of items - possibly in two separate incursions. See the feature for more.
