:30:01
New excavations are uncovering
:30:03
the support system of settlements
:30:05
and facilities for the workers
:30:07
who built the Giza pyramids.
:30:16
These new discoveries
and many more-owe themselves

:30:20
at least in part,
:30:22
to one discovery
not quite as modern

:30:26
of the tomb of a
teenage pharaon.

:30:34
On November 26, 1922,
:30:37
Howard Carter reached the wall
:30:38
outside the first chamber
of Tutankhamon's tomb.

:30:42
What can you see?
:30:56
Carter, please,
can you see anything?

:31:00
Yes.
:31:04
Yes.
:31:09
Wonderful things
Wonderful things

:31:34
And they were wonderful things...
:31:36
kept hidden for over
3,000 years

:31:39
in four chambers carved
from solid rock.

:31:43
They entered to find the only
intact king's tomb

:31:46
ever discovered in modern times.
:31:57
And in the burial chamber,
four golden shrines.
