«La maldición de Tutankamón» is the historical essay by Joyce Tyldesley, published by Editorial Ariel in paperback (384 pages, in Spanish).
In November 1922, Howard Carter discovered in the Valley of the Kings the tomb of Tutankhamun, the only one that remained unlooted. Joyce Tyldesley reconstructs the life of the young pharaoh and analyzes how the find transformed knowledge of ancient Egypt and fueled fascination with mummies and their supposed curses.
Spanish edition of 2012, translated by Ana Herrera Ferrer; subtitled «La historia de un rey egipcio». The English original is titled Tutankhamen: The Search for an Egyptian King.
Historical popular science recommended for readers interested in ancient Egypt, Egyptology and great archaeological discoveries.
Joyce Ann Tyldesley is a British Archaeologist and Egyptologist, academic, writer and broadcaster who specialises in research on women in ancient Egypt. She was interviewed on the TV series Cunk on Earth, about Egyptian pyramids, in 2022.
