How does the discovery of Tutankhamen tomb reconstruct the Egyptian lifestyle, and beliefs?
First answer is correct. Basically, a lot of the artifacts that had been stolen from other tombs (and long lost) were found intact in Tut’s. Therefore, we have actual samples of ancient Egyptian products that were not present in any other tomb yet found. Every artifact has a purpose – often, in tombs, both a practical purpose for living people *and* a symbolic or religious purpose for the dead person entombed. So – finding those artifacts let scholars find out some new things about what Egyptians believed about the afterlife *and* about the kinds of things they used in their own life.
