100 YEARS OF TUTANKHAMUN

Most people know that my interest in Egyptology is very limited. However, as it is the 100th Anniversary since the discovery of the tomb of Tutankhamun, I thought I'd watch at least one of the many videos there are related to the topic.
I've ended up watching one by Curtis Ryan Woodside 100 YEARS OF TUTANKHAMUN: Egyptologists Share Their Thoughts is different to most of them.
Just a personal note, I have always thought it grossly unfair that Carter, and Lord Caernarvon, got/get all the credit for finding the tomb. The dozens of Egyptians that worked long hours doing all the donkey work never, or seldom ever, get a mention.
