“King Tut’s 3,300-year-old funeral mask, called ‘the most famous archaeological relic in the world,’ has been permanently damaged, Cairo’s Egyptian Museum announced this week. It’s still not entirely clear what happened. But it seems Tut’s drooping beard was somehow knocked off at some point last year. And then everything went from bad to worse.”
