Tutankhamun's space dagger is a beautiful decorated artefact that was recovered from his tomb. However, methods used in its manufacture were not found in Ancient Egypt until much later in the Ptolemaic period. Researchers now believe, based on a few pieces of evidence, that it came from Anatolia and was a gift to Tutankhamun's grandfather, Amenhotep III. #ancientegypt #ancienthistory #tutankhamun ✨ JOIN MY CHANNEL https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC0Hs5t0U6Uf993Tba22YmKA/join ✨ FOLLOW ME ON SOCIALS BlueSky: @MegalithHunter.bsky.social ✨ REFERENCES Matsui, T., Moriwaki, R., Zidan, E. and Arai, T., 2022.
