In 1968, the
#GOLD mask of Tutankhamun was X-rayed.
Through X-ray imaging technology, the
#Gold mask of King Tutankhamun was observed. Until recently, archaeologists believed that this mask was made from a single piece of gold. But to their surprise, when they used X-rays to examine the mask, they discovered something unexpected.
The X-rays showed that the mask was actually composed of multiple parts, meticulously connected together with extremely precise welding techniques, so fine that it was invisible to the naked eye.
At that time, everyone was amazed by the level of knowledge and technological advancement in metallurgy and gold craftsmanship achieved by ancient Egyptian civilization.
