Answer:

Archaeology is not what it used to be decades ago. It has moved on with the times. Actually, it has changed substantially within a few decades. Now the focus is not on Tut’s treasure. On the other hand, the focus is on the fascinating details of his life and the mysteries surrounding his death. Archaeology now employs more sophisticated tools like CT scanning machines. It employs medical technology. More than 40 years after Carter’s discovery, Tut’s mummy was X-rayed. It revealed a startling fact. His breast-bone and front ribs were missing.

Today diagnostic imaging can be done with computed tomography or CT scan. Hundreds of X-rays are put together in slices to create a three dimensional virtual body. CT scan can answer two of the biggest questions. It can tell how Tut died and how old he was at the time of death. A CT machine scanned Tut’s mummy from head to toe. It created 1700 digital X-ray images. Gradually Tut’s entire body was recorded. Astonishing images of Tut came up on the computer screen. The results were very satisfactory. Neck-bone was clearly visible. Other images revealed a hand. Several views of the rib cage and the skull were quite clear.
