Howard Carter was a British archaeologist and historian.He found Tut\’s mummy after a long span of life given to its search. But when he opened the sarcophagus, he faced a problem. The mummy was stuck to the bottom of the tomb. Egyptians kept some ritual resins below the mummy. During hundreds of years, the resins have hardened and the mummy was stuck to the bottom tightly.After using all his manpower, he concluded that the mummy would not budge a bit if they kept trying in the same manner. So he decided to use some \’unscientific methods\’ to take out the mummy. He cut the bottom part\’s resins and tore the mummy away. In this way, he took the mummy out but it was not in the best condition. It was slightly tore and battered.
