This year marks the 100th anniversary of the discovery by Carter and his team of the tomb of the boy king, which was filled with thrones, chariots and hundreds of other objects Egyptians believed were needed in the next world.
 
Archaeologist Howard Carter, who discovered Tutankhamun’s tomb in 1922, stole some of the treasures found in the 3,300-year-old burial site, a previously unpublished letter sent to the archaeologist by a scholar from his team shows.
