What was the name of that egiptian pharaoh with a story just like this? Tutankamon? Touthank-Amon? Tutanq Amon? How does it spell in English? I saw dozens of B movies about it. Dadinho é o caralho! Meu nome agora é Zé Pequeno, porra!

Tut-ankh-amon or something like that. That's how it's pronounced anyway. :) -- Pictures[^] from my Japan trip.

Tutankhamun's curse: "Death Shall Come on Swift Wings To Him Who Disturbs the Peace of the King"... or so the story goes. BW

via Google. I can't remember which site, now. I saw a few different versions of the supposed curse. It sounds like some newspapers reported that it was written on the outside of the tomb, though it isn't true. Imagine that, the media making up something for a story. :rolleyes: BW
