King Tuts body was unveiled to the general public of Egypt yesterday for the first time.
"I can say for the first time that the mummy is safe and the mummy is well preserved, and at the same time, all the tourists who will enter this tomb will be able to see the face of Tutankhamun for the first time," Egypt's antiquities chief Zahi Hawass said.
King Tut's original linen over his body was replaced, leaving only his head and his feet exposed.
"Sunday's unveiling ensured the boy pharaoh would remain eternal", said Hawass.
