Prokletstvo faraona

Philipp Vandenberg

"The Curse of the Pharaohs" is a book by Philippe Vandenberg that investigates the mysterious deaths associated with the discovery of the tomb of Pharaoh Tutankhamun in 1922.

After Howard Carter and his team opened the intact tomb, stories began to circulate about a "curse" affecting those who disturbed the pharaoh's eternal rest. Vandenberg analyzes in detail the series of unexplained deaths and accidents that befell members of the expedition and other related persons. The book explores the possible causes of these events, including theories about toxic substances inside the tomb, the psychological effects of suggestion, and media sensationalism. The author also provides a broader context about the Egyptology of the time, the public's fascination with ancient Egypt, and the impact of these events on popular culture. Vandenberg's analysis combines historical fact with elements of a thriller, providing readers with an intriguing insight into one of archaeology's most famous stories.
