      Take a virtual tour of
      the Tomb of Tutankhamun

      See if you can discover the entrance to his tomb. Venture down the steps and through the corridor leading to the antechamber (you may have to play with the controls in order to get through the small entrance-ways). Explore the different rooms. Examine the wall-paintings in the burial chamber. Can you find Tut's mummy within the nested layers of the royal sarcophagus? If you investigate very carefully, you may even find yourself inside a mouse-hole, looking out into the burial chamber!

      (the virtual tomb may take a few minutes to download -- please be patient)
