Free Guided Tours of King Tut Virtual

Submitted by Meral Crifasi on Wed, 10/21/2009 - 11:11

Heritage Key is offering free guided tours of King Tut Virtual. You can join me for a guided tour of the virtual experience any weekday at 11am and 5pm London UK time (GMT).

Each tour lasts for an hour and is meant as a casual introduction to get you started on the right foot for your virtual experience.

If you have never been in the virtual world before this a great opportunity as I will be there to answer any of your questions and help you with any problems you might come across.

The tours will cover everything from virtual navigation to customising your avatar and taking photos in the virtual world, or just simply exploring and having fun.

During that one hour we will take a balloon ride over the Valley of the Kings, do some digging as we search for treasure, have a taste of the Nile and Amarna period, and finish with a tour of the King Tut exhibiton - one of the most amazing galleries in the virtual world. The video below, which was created in the Cosmic Gallery and focuses on a cosmetic jar from the tomb of King Tut, gives you some idea of the kind of artefacts on display:

Reconstructing King Tut

Using CT-scans of the mummified corpse of Tutankhamun in 2005, forensic experts were able to create an accurate reconstruction of the face of the boy king before his death, as well as put to bed one of the enduring myths about his death.

The Valley of the Kings

Since the discovery of the tomb of Seti I by Belzoni, and that of King Tut by Howard Carter, the Valley of the Kings has been hot property for archaeologists.

Amarna Art and Architecture

A revolutionary style for a revolutionary time: as the 'Heretic Pharaoh' Akhenaten tried to implement his will of monotheistic worship to one god - the 'universal creator of life' Aten - he need an equally radical sea-change in art and architecture to match.
