It’s 100 years since the discovery of #Tutankhamun’s tomb

BUT… I’m also very excited to say I have been offered (& have accepted) a place @UniOfYork to study my PhD

Took Carter 10yrs to catalogue the tomb, & It’s 10 years since my MA… hopefully won’t take me 10 years for PhD!

A piece of piano sheet music that was so quick to capitalise on the discovery of Tutankhamun that it was too early to understand the truth of the boy king
