It was stolen in the 19th
29、century, at the time when many explorers from Europe and America wanted to find the mummified bodies of Pharaohs (法老). They had heard stories of the Pharaohs being buried with treasures of great artistic, scientific and financial value.But when King Tut was discovered in 1922 in Egypt, they realized
30、 the Pharaohs might have been buried with something else as well.As soon as Englishman Howard Carter found King Tuts tomb, strange things started to happen.On the night of the discovery, Carters canary (金丝雀) was killed by a snake. It was the same kind of snake found on a symbol worn by the Pharaohs
31、on their foreheads.A few months later, Lord Carnarvon, the man who paid for Carters trip, died suddenly in Cairo of unknown causes.

33、those with bad health.”But perhaps the power of the curse is in the mind of those who believe it.
