Care Tag:Attached (pictured) Measurements:Approx. 35" x 35" (90cm x 90cm) Material:100% Silk twill Tutankhamun, or “King Tut”, as he’s commonly known in popular culture, was an Egyptian pharaoh of the 18th dynasty (ca. 1332 BC – 1323 BC), during the period of Egyptian history known as the New Kingdom. The 1922 discovery by Howard Carter and George Herbert of Tutankhamun's nearly intact tomb received worldwide press coverage. It sparked a renewed public interest in ancient Egypt, for which Tutankhamun's burial mask remains the popular symbol. Exhibits of artifacts from his tomb have toured the world. Ancient Egyptian references became common in popular culture, including Tin Pan Alley songs; the most popular of the latter was "Old King Tut" by Harry Von Tilzer from 1923, which was recorded by such prominent artists of the time as Jones & Hare and Sophie Tucker. "King Tut" became the name of products, businesses, and even the pet dog of U.S. President Herbert Hoover. Relics from Tutankhamun's tomb are among the most traveled artifacts in the world. They have been to many countries, but probably the best-known exhibition tour was The Treasures of Tutankhamun tour, which ran from 1972 to 1979. This exhibition was first shown in London at the British Museum from 30 March until 30 September 1972. More than 1.6 million visitors saw the exhibition, some queuing for up to eight hours. It was the most popular exhibition in the Museum's history. The exhibition moved on to many other countries, including the USA, USSR, Japan, France, Canada, and West Germany. Some of the more famous of these relics served as inspiration for this timeless scarf by Vladimir Rybaltchenko, as well as Caty Latham's 'Scarabees Et Pectoraux' issued by Hermes a few years earlier in 1970.
