Whoever opens the tomb.

In 1922, the archaeologist Howard Carter discovered the tomb of the ancient Egyptian Pharaoh Tutankhamun. And almost immediately, mysterious stories about the fates of the "first discoverers" of the tomb began to spread around the world. It seemed as though they, and their close ones, were doomed to meet an unfortunate end.

Of course, the question arises why the curse struck those who were only indirectly related to the excavations, while Howard Carter, for example, lived calmly for another 17 years after the tomb's discovery.

So, who was behind these stories? Writers with their wild imagination? Journalists hungry for sensations? Or perhaps... Tutankhamun himself, displeased with the archaeologists' curiosity?

What do you think, where did the rumors about the pharaoh's "revenge" come from?
