A half century has elapsed since 1965 which marked a year of rapid economic growth and the year that Japan had enthusiastically welcomed the stunning exhibition of King Tutankhamun's golden funerary mask. This golden array of burial accessories will dazzle those of us in the 21st century by taking us for a time slip back into the fascinating world of Ancient B.C. times. Since the opening of Tutankahman's Tomb, there were numerous related deaths which were mysterious and raised the notion of the Curse of Tutankhaman's Tomb which still mesmerizes the public. Under the supervision of Dr. Zahi Hawass, former Minister of States for Antiquities of the Arab Republic of Egypt, the exhibition houses 122 artifacts from Egyptian Museum of Cairo including over 50 dazzling array of possessions unearthed from Tutankhamun's tomb.
