When the treasures of King Tut's tomb were exhibited around the United States in 1978, it raised an immense amount of public interest; when Steve Martin performed his song "King Tut" on Saturday Night Live, that interest was whipped up into a flame. CBS News sought to make sense of it all by producing this documentary that told the story of its discovery by Howard Carter, the death of Lord Canarvon in the midst of it, the long-term painstaking excavation and restoration of the tomb's treasures and breathtaking examinations of the restorations made of these treasures. An artistic experience as well as archeological journey!
