THE CURSE
Late in 1922 the British archaeologist Howard Carter discovered the tomb of Pharaoh Tutankhamun,
who died in 1323 BC aged about 18, in the Valley of the Kings, across the Nile from Luxor in Egypt.
Pharaohs had been buried there from the 16th to the 11th centuries BC. Most of the tombs had
been plundered from early times and Tutankhamun’s was the first to be found almost entirely
undisturbed. The 5th Earl of Carnarvon, a keen amateur Egyptologist who was financing the project,
joined Carter and his team to enter the burial chambers, where they found the young pharaoh’s
mummified body and a wealth of religious objects, wall paintings and inscriptions as well as
equipment he would need in the afterlife.
The discovery created a worldwide press sensation and stories spread about a curse on anyone who
dared to break into a pharaoh’s tomb. The Times in London and New York World magazine published
the best-selling novelist Marie Corelli’s speculations that ‘the direst punishment follows any rash
intruder into a sealed tomb’. It was not long before Lord Carnarvon died in Cairo aged 56 and the
lights in the city went out, which set off a frenzy of speculation. Arthur Conan Doyle told the
American press that ‘an evil elemental’ spirit created by priests to protect the mummy could have
caused Carnarvon’s death.
No curse had actually been found in the tomb, but deaths in succeeding years of various members of
Carter’s team and real or supposed visitors to the site kept the story alive, especially in cases of
death by violence or in odd circumstances. Alleged victims of the curse included Prince Ali Kamel
Fahmy Bey of Egypt, shot dead by his wife in 1923; Sir Archibald Douglas Reid, who supposedly X-
rayed the mummy and died mysteriously in 1924; Sir Lee Stack, the governor-general of the Sudan,
who was assassinated in Cairo in 1924; Arthur Mace of Carter’s excavation team, said to have died of
arsenic poisoning in 1928; Carter’s secretary Richard Bethell, who supposedly died smothered in his
bed in 1929; and his father, who committed suicide in 1930.
Most people who worked in or visited the tomb lived long lives, but this did not undermine belief in
the curse by those who wanted to believe it. Carter himself angrily dismissed the whole curse idea as
‘tommy rot’, but when he died solitary and miserably unhappy of Hodgkin’s disease in his London
flat in March 1939 at the age of 64, the story of the mummy’s curse sprang back to life in his
obituaries and it has persisted to this day.
