Answers
Answer:
Carter was a British archaeologist. When he found the mummy it was already in a bad condition. He saw that the ritual resins had hardened over time and the body of the mummy was cemented to the coffin.
He first placed the mummy's coffin under the sun in the hope of it loosening but it was useless. He then decided to remove the body parts of the mummy separately. He then brought it back together
Answer: Howard Carter is a British archaeologist who is famous for his discovery of tut's mummy in 1922.
Explanation:
He faced many difficulties to set out the mummy because of the strong bonded resins.. So he used the intense Egyptian sunlight to loosen the resins in 149 degrees Fahrenheit.. But nothing worked out. So he finally chiseled the consolidated material away from beneath the limbs and trunk before it was possible to raise the king's remains... He almost damaged the mummy and later researchers blamed him for mishandling the mummy... Carter defended himself that if he didn't do so... It wouldn't have been set free and thieves would have robbed it..
