The Curse of the pharaohs

The Curse of the Pharaohs is a legendary belief that those who disturb the tombs of ancient Egyptian pharaohs, especially mummies, will face misfortune, illness, or death. This idea gained popularity after the discovery of King Tutankhamun’s tomb in 1922, when several people associated with the excavation died under mysterious circumstances. While there’s no scientific evidence supporting an actual curse, the stories have reinforced fears and superstitions, making the tombs seem ominous and dangerous. Essentially, it’s a modern myth that adds intrigue and mystery to Egypt's ancient burial sites.
