King Tut's treasures coming to Seattle May 2012
SEATTLE -- The treasures of Egypt's boy pharoah are returning to Seattle.
An exhibit of artifacts from King Tutankhamun's tomb opens at the Pacific Science Center in 2012, more than 30 years after the boy king first captivated Seattle.
The center said today that the exhibit includes a new selection of treasures and more than twice the number of artifacts.
Tut's tomb was discovered in 1922 filled with a stunning array of jewels and artifacts.
The exhibit, "Tutankhamun: The Golden King and the Great Pharaohs," runs from May 24, 2012 to January 6, 2013.
