图坦卡蒙墓的壁画，帝王谷，埃及，2005年


中文注释：（网友翻译，有待改进，请跟帖发表自己看法）
法老王图坦卡蒙的陵墓的北墙上描绘了图坦卡蒙去往天国的景象：女天神努特（左起第二个）迎接图坦卡蒙来到神的世界。努特张开的手掌中的黑色的锯齿状的标志象征着对法老王欢迎。

图坦卡蒙的陵墓位于帝王谷，其陵墓里藏着他的木乃伊以及陪葬品。直到1922年考古学家霍华德卡特发现了该陵墓，并公众于世。虽然此墓的其他房间被盗贼光顾过，但尸体埋葬处没有被碰过。

英文注释：
Valley of the Kings, Egypt, Tutankhamun Tomb Mural

A mural on the north wall of Pharaoh Tutankhamun's tomb maps out his journey to the next world. Here, the sky goddess Nut, second from left, welcomes Tut to the realm of the gods. The black, zigzaggy symbols in Nut's open palms symbolize a greeting.

Carved into the Valley of the Kings, Tut's tomb hid his mummy and funerary regalia until archaeologist Howard Carter revealed its contents to world acclaim in 1922. Though the peripheral rooms were looted in antiquity, the burial itself remained untouched.
