The best-preserved mummy ever discovered is that of Tutankhamun, the famous Egyptian pharaoh who ruled during the 18th dynasty. Tutankhamun’s tomb was unearthed in 1922 by archaeologist Howard Carter, and inside was found the young king’s perfectly preserved mummified body. The mummy was wrapped in linen bandages and adorned with intricate jewelry, giving researchers a rare glimpse into ancient Egyptian burial practices and beliefs. Tutankhamun’s mummy remains one of the most studied and awe-inspiring archaeological finds in history.
