Is King Tut in the Grand Egyptian Museum?

All items from the tomb of Tutankhamun, who was king of Egypt between c. 1333 and 1324 bce, are on display in the Grand Egyptian Museum in Giza. These objects include his mummy, gold funerary mask, inner gold sarcophagus, jewels, and throne. Their display in the GEM marks the first time all of the objects have been exhibited together since their excavation by Howard Carter in the 1920s. Other notable artifacts that will be exhibited include a colossal statue of Ramses II, a block statue of Queen Hetepheres, and a black granite sculpture of Queen Nefertiti.
