The "Mummy's Curse" refers to a popular belief that those who disturb ancient Egyptian tombs, particularly those of mummies, will face misfortune or death. This idea gained traction in the early 20th century, especially after the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb in 1922, when several individuals associated with the excavation experienced untimely deaths. Despite its fame, the curse is largely considered a myth. Many experts attribute the reported misfortunes to natural causes, such as infections from bacteria or mold found in the tombs. Scientific studies have shown no evidence supporting the existence of a curse linked to mummies or their burial sites.
