For over three thousand years Tutankhamen's tomb was secured by this intricate knot and a delicate clay seal featuring Anubis, the ancient Egyptians’ jackal god entrusted with the protection of the cemetery.
Work men discovered the tomb under debris of Ramsses' final resting place.
The knot survived thanks to the desert's aridity and the lack of oxygen in the sealed chambers as well as the infamous curse “Death will slay with his wings whoever disturbs the peace of the pharaoh”.
Ah, the wonders of antiquity.
I only know simple knots, but they work whe needed.
I'm a little better at curses.
They are tied to the mind.
