Royal Egyptian Artifact – "الملك توت عنخ آمون" (Al-Malik Tūt ʿAnkh Āmūn) – "King Tutankhamun" (pharaonic schist)

story :

In the tombs of the ancient kings, where time itself seems to stop, there lies a mystery that has baffled the world for centuries. King Tutankhamun, a name whispered through the sands, is the boy who should have never been remembered—yet his legacy is one of silence and endless wonder.

The young pharaoh’s reign was brief, a fleeting moment in the long history of Egypt, yet his tomb, hidden in the deep, silent earth, revealed a treasure trove that should never have been unearthed. Riches beyond imagining, jewels untouched by time, and a golden mask that could summon the very soul of Egypt's ancient past.

But it was not just the gold that shocked those who ventured into his resting place—it was the sense of something... else. A force, unseen, that seemed to rise from the sarcophagus, as if Tutankhamun himself were not gone but only waiting, watching, as if time had not yet claimed him.

The curse of King Tut, they say, is not a tale of death but of eternity. Those who dare disturb the boy king’s tomb may find themselves bound to the fate of his rest—not death, but an unending vigil across the ages.

King Tut was buried, but not forgotten. His name is carried on the winds of the Nile, echoing through time as a reminder that some things are best left undisturbed.

Pharaonic schist :

refers to a variety of metamorphic stones that were extensively used by the ancient Egyptians from 3100 BCE to 30 BCE, This rock is characterized by its layered structure, which allows for easy shaping and carving. Schist is composed of minerals such as mica, chlorite, and talc, giving it a lustrous sheen and smooth finish. These qualities made it a highly prized material for creating detailed sculptures, ritualistic objects, and funerary items. The ancient Egyptians favored schist for its ability to hold intricate carvings, making it a key material in the creation of temple statues, palettes, and tomb artifacts, all of which were often imbued with religious significance.
