George Edward Stanhope Molyneux Herbert, 5th Earl of Carnarvon, DL (26 June 1866 – 5 April 1923), styled Lord Porchester until 1890, was an English aristocrat best known as the financial backer of the search for and the excavation of Tutankhamun's tomb in the Valley of the Kings.
Background and education
Styled Lord Porchester from birth, he was born at the family seat, Highclere Castle, in Hampshire, the only son of Henry Herbert, 4th Earl of Carnarvon, a distinguished Tory statesman, by his first wife Lady Evelyn Stanhope, daughter of George Stanhope, 6th Earl of Chesterfield. Aubrey Herbert was his half-brother. He was educated at Eton College and Trinity College, Cambridge. He inherited the Bretby Hall estate from his maternal grandmother, Anne Elizabeth, Dowager Countess of Chesterfield (1802–1885), and succeeded his father in the earldom in 1890.
Horse racing
Exceedingly wealthy, Carnarvon was at first best known as an owner of racehorses and a reckless driver of early cars, suffering in 1901 a serious motoring accident near Bad Schwalbach in Germany which left him significantly disabled. In 1902, he established Highclere Stud to breed thoroughbred racehorses. In 1905, he was appointed one of the Stewards at the new Newbury Racecourse. His family has maintained the connection ever since. His grandson, the 7th Earl, was racing manager to Queen Elizabeth II from 1969, and one of Her Majesty's closest friends.
Lord Carnarvon was an enthusiastic amateur Egyptologist, undertaking in 1907 to sponsor the excavation of nobles' tombs in Deir el-Bahri (Thebes). Howard Carter joined him as his assistant in the excavations. It is now established that it was Gaston Maspero, then Director of the Antiquities Department, who proposed Carter to Lord Carnarvon.[6] He received in 1914 the concession to dig in the Valley of the Kings, in replacement of Theodore Davis who had resigned. In 1922, he and Howard Carter together opened the tomb of Tutankhamun in the Valley of the Kings, exposing treasures unsurpassed in the history of archaeology.
The 1922 discovery by Howard Carter and George Herbert, 5th Earl of Carnarvon[5][6] of Tutankhamun's nearly intact tomb received worldwide press coverage. It sparked a renewed public interest in ancient Egypt, for which Tutankhamun's burial mask, now in Cairo Museum, remains the popular symbol. Exhibits of artifacts from his tomb have toured the world. In February 2010, the results of DNA tests confirmed that he was the son of Akhenaten (mummy KV55) and Akhenaten's sister and wife (mummy KV35YL), whose name is unknown but whose remains are positively identified as "The Younger Lady" mummy found in KV35

STORYLINE
Events were held in Luxor, Egypt on Thursday to celebrate the discovery of the tomb of boy-king Tutankhamun 90 years ago.
A group of guests, including the U.S. and Kuwaiti ambassadors to Egypt, were invited to view the tomb, where restoration work continues.
They were also among the first to visit the reopened tomb of Pharaoh Merinbetah, which had been closed for six years of restoration.
Egyptian authorities hope events such as Thursday's will boost tourism in what was once a thriving tourist destination and shine a spotlight on what Egypt still has to offer holidaymakers.
Egypt's vital tourism industry has suffered from the country's internal unrest in the wake of the 2011 uprising that toppled autocratic leader Hosni Mubarak.
November is peak season in Luxor yet hotels in what was once a tourist hub are only at 27 percent capacity.
''We will continue to have an agenda, a tourism agenda, a touristic agenda, throughout the coming weeks and months for these parts to help boost the interest and the demand once again to Egypt,'' said the country's Tourism Minister Hisham Zaazou on Thursday.
In November 1922, archaeologists Howard Carter and the 5th Earl of Carnarvon, George Herbert together opened the tomb of Tutankhamun, revealing the Pharaoh's sarcophagus and a treasure trove of fabulous items in gold and precious stones.
Herbert had sponsored the excavations that led up to the discovery.
The life of Tutankhamun has fascinated people since his tomb was discovered.

The life of Tutankhamun has fascinated people since his tomb was discovered. He lived 3,000 years ago and is believed to have been the 12th ruler of ancient Egypt's 18th dynasty.
Tutankhamun is believed to have ascended to the throne around the age of eight. He was a relatively minor king who probably died under mysterious circumstances before he was 20 but became famous because of the splendour of his tomb.

The Curse of King Tutankhamun's Treasure - DOCUMENTARY
Tutankhamun (/ˌtuːtənkɑːˈmuːn/; alternatively spelled with Tutenkh-, -amen, -amon) was an Egyptian pharaoh of the 18th dynasty (ruled ca. 1332–1323 BC in the conventional chronology), during the period of Egyptian history known as the New Kingdom.
He is colloquially referred to as King Tut. His original name, Tutankhaten, means "Living Image of Aten", while Tutankhamun means "Living Image of Amun". In hieroglyphs, the name Tutankhamun was typically written Amen-tut-ankh, because of a scribal custom that placed a divine name at the beginning of a phrase to show appropriate reverence. He is possibly also the Nibhurrereya of the Amarna letters, and likely the 18th dynasty king Rathotis who, according to Manetho, an ancient historian, had reigned for nine years—a figure that conforms with Flavius Josephus's version of Manetho's Epitome.
The 1922 discovery by Howard Carter and George Herbert, 5th Earl of Carnarvon of Tutankhamun's nearly intact tomb received worldwide press coverage. It sparked a renewed public interest in ancient Egypt, for which Tutankhamun's mask, now in Cairo Museum, remains the popular symbol. Exhibits of artifacts from his tomb have toured the world. In February 2010, the results of DNA tests confirmed that he was the son of Akhenaten (mummy KV55) and Akhenaten's sister and wife (mummy KV35YL), whose name is unknown but whose remains are positively identified as "The Younger Lady" mummy found in KV35. The "mysterious" deaths of a few of those who excavated Tutankhamun's tomb has been popularly attributed to the curse of the pharaohs.
The belief in a curse was brought to many people's attention due to the sometimes mysterious deaths of a few members of Howard Carter's team and other prominent visitors to the tomb shortly thereafter. Carter's team opened the tomb of Tutankhamun (KV62) in 1922, launching the modern era of Egyptology.

Earl of Carnarvon is a title that has been created three times in British history. The first creation came in the Peerage of England in 1628 in favour of Robert Dormer, 2nd Baron Dormer. For more information on this creation, which became extinct in 1709, see the Baron Dormer. The title was created again in 1714 in the Peerage of Great Britain for James Brydges, 9th Baron Chandos. In 1719 he was further honoured when he was made Marquess of Carnarvon and Duke of Chandos. For more information on this creation, which became extinct in 1789, see the Duke of Chandos.
The title was created for a third time in the Peerage of Great Britain in 1793 for Henry Herbert, 1st Baron Porchester. The precise form of this creation was Earl of the Town and County of Carnarvon, in the Principality of Wales, although in practice only the style of Earl of Carnarvon is used. He had previously represented Wilton in the House of Commons and had already in 1780 been created Baron Porchester, of High Clere in the County of Southampton (also in the Peerage of Great Britain). Herbert was the son of Major-General the Hon. William Herbert, fifth son of Thomas Herbert, 8th Earl of Pembroke. He was succeeded by his eldest son, the second Earl. He sat as Whig Member of Parliament for Cricklade.

George Herbert (3 April 1593 – 1 March 1633) was a Welsh-born English poet, orator and Anglican priest.
Being born into an artistic and wealthy family, he received a good education that led to his holding prominent positions at Cambridge University and Parliament. As a student at Trinity College, Cambridge, Herbert excelled in languages and music. He went to college with the intention of becoming a priest, but his scholarship attracted the attention of King James I/VI. Herbert served in Parliament for two years. After the death of King James and at the urging of a friend, Herbert's interest in ordained ministry was renewed.
In 1630, in his late thirties he gave up his secular ambitions and took holy orders in the Church of England, spending the rest of his life as a rector of the little parish of Fugglestone St Peter with Bemerton St Andrew, near Salisbury. He was noted for unfailing care for his parishioners, bringing the sacraments to them when they were ill, and providing food and clothing for those in need. Henry Vaughan said of him "a most glorious saint and seer".

INTRO Events were held in Luxor, Egypt on Thursday to celebrate the discovery of the tomb of boy-king Tutankhamun 90 years ago. The Egyptian authorities hope such events will help boost the country's tourism in what was once a thriving tourist destination and shine a spotlight on what Egypt still has to offer holidaymakers. PKG Egypt's vital tourism industry has suffered from the country's internal unrest in the wake of the 2011 uprising. November is peak season in Luxor yet hotels in what was once a tourist hub are only at 27 percent capacity. SOUNDBITE: HISHAM ZAAZOU, Tourism Minister "We will continue to have an agenda, a tourism agenda, a touristic agenda, throughout the coming weeks and months for these parts to help boost the interest and the demand once again to Egypt." In November 1922, archaeologists Howard Carter and the 5th Earl of Carnarvon, George Herber, together opened the tomb of Tutankhamun, revealing the Pharaoh's sarcophagus and a treasure trove of fabulous items in gold and precious stones. Herbert had sponsored the excavations that led up to the discovery. On Thursday, the Earl's great-grandson, the 8th Earl of Carnarvon, also named George Herbert, held a celebratory reception at Howard Carter's house, now a museum a few miles from the Valley of the Kings. SOUNDBITE: GEORGE HERBERT, 8th Earl of Carnarvon "My great-grandfather says to Howard Carter 'what do you see?' And Carter famously replies, 'just wonderful things'. And he's looking back at this, in a way perhaps, theatre set of ancient civilization 3,100 years ago, everywhere the glint of gold off those beautiful wooden objects and that's just the start." The life of Tutankhamun has fascinated people since his tomb was discovered. He lived 3,000 years ago and is believed to have been the 12th ruler of ancient Egypt's 18th dynasty. Tutankhamun is believed to have ascended to the throne around the age of eight. He was a relatively minor king who probably died under mysterious circumstances before he was 20 but became famous because of the splendour of his tomb. -

The Curse of King Tutankhamun's Treasure - DOCUMENTARY Tutankhamun (/ˌtuːtənkɑːˈmuːn/; alternatively spelled with Tutenkh-, -amen, -amon) was an Egyptian pharaoh of the 18th dynasty (ruled ca. 1332–1323 BC in the conventional chronology), during the period of Egyptian history known as the New Kingdom. He is colloquially referred to as King Tut. His original name, Tutankhaten, means "Living Image of Aten", while Tutankhamun means "Living Image of Amun". In hieroglyphs, the name Tutankhamun was typically written Amen-tut-ankh, because of a scribal custom that placed a divine name at the beginning of a phrase to show appropriate reverence. He is possibly also the Nibhurrereya of the Amarna letters, and likely the 18th dynasty king Rathotis who, according to Manetho, an ancient historian, had reigned for nine years—a figure that conforms with Flavius Josephus's version of Manetho's Epitome. The 1922 discovery by Howard Carter and George Herbert, 5th Earl of Carnarvon of Tutankhamun's nearly intact tomb received worldwide press coverage. It sparked a renewed public interest in ancient Egypt, for which Tutankhamun's mask, now in Cairo Museum, remains the popular symbol. Exhibits of artifacts from his tomb have toured the world. In February 2010, the results of DNA tests confirmed that he was the son of Akhenaten (mummy KV55) and Akhenaten's sister and wife (mummy KV35YL), whose name is unknown but whose remains are positively identified as "The Younger Lady" mummy found in KV35. The "mysterious" deaths of a few of those who excavated Tutankhamun's tomb has been popularly attributed to the curse of the pharaohs. The belief in a curse was brought to many people's attention due to the sometimes mysterious deaths of a few members of Howard Carter's team and other prominent visitors to the tomb shortly thereafter. Carter's team opened the tomb of Tutankhamun (KV62) in 1922, launching the modern era of Egyptology. -

George Edward Stanhope Molyneux Herbert, 5th Earl of Carnarvon, DL (26 June 1866 – 5 April 1923), styled Lord Porchester until 1890, was an English aristocrat best known as the financial backer of the search for and the excavation of Tutankhamun's tomb in the Valley of the Kings.
Background and education
Styled Lord Porchester from birth, he was born at the family seat, Highclere Castle, in Hampshire, the only son of Henry Herbert, 4th Earl of Carnarvon, a distinguished Tory statesman, by his first wife Lady Evelyn Stanhope, daughter of George Stanhope, 6th Earl of Chesterfield. Aubrey Herbert was his half-brother. He was educated at Eton College and Trinity College, Cambridge. He inherited the Bretby Hall estate from his maternal grandmother, Anne Elizabeth, Dowager Countess of Chesterfield (1802–1885), and succeeded his father in the earldom in 1890.
Horse racing
Exceedingly wealthy, Carnarvon was at first best known as an owner of racehorses and a reckless driver of early cars, suffering in 1901 a serious motoring accident near Bad Schwalbach in Germany which left him significantly disabled. In 1902, he established Highclere Stud to breed thoroughbred racehorses. In 1905, he was appointed one of the Stewards at the new Newbury Racecourse. His family has maintained the connection ever since. His grandson, the 7th Earl, was racing manager to Queen Elizabeth II from 1969, and one of Her Majesty's closest friends.
Lord Carnarvon was an enthusiastic amateur Egyptologist, undertaking in 1907 to sponsor the excavation of nobles' tombs in Deir el-Bahri (Thebes). Howard Carter joined him as his assistant in the excavations. It is now established that it was Gaston Maspero, then Director of the Antiquities Department, who proposed Carter to Lord Carnarvon.[6] He received in 1914 the concession to dig in the Valley of the Kings, in replacement of Theodore Davis who had resigned. In 1922, he and Howard Carter together opened the tomb of Tutankhamun in the Valley of the Kings, exposing treasures unsurpassed in the history of archaeology.

STORYLINE
Events were held in Luxor, Egypt on Thursday to celebrate the discovery of the tomb of boy-king Tutankhamun 90 years ago.
A group of guests, including the U.S. and Kuwaiti ambassadors to Egypt, were invited to view the tomb, where restoration work continues.
They were also among the first to visit the reopened tomb of Pharaoh Merinbetah, which had been closed for six years of restoration.
Egyptian authorities hope events such as Thursday's will boost tourism in what was once a thriving tourist destination and shine a spotlight on what Egypt still has to offer holidaymakers.
Egypt's vital tourism industry has suffered from the country's internal unrest in the wake of the 2011 uprising that toppled autocratic leader Hosni Mubarak.

STORYLINE
Events were held in Luxor, Egypt on Thursday to celebrate the discovery of the tomb of boy-king Tutankhamun 90 years ago.
A group of guests, including the U.S. and Kuwaiti ambassadors to Egypt, were invited to view the tomb, where restoration work continues.
They were also among the first to visit the reopened tomb of Pharaoh Merinbetah, which had been closed for six years of restoration.
Egyptian authorities hope events such as Thursday's will boost tourism in what was once a thriving tourist destination and shine a spotlight on what Egypt still has to offer holidaymakers.
Egypt's vital tourism industry has suffered from the country's internal unrest in the wake of the 2011 uprising that toppled autocratic leader Hosni Mubarak.
November is peak season in Luxor yet hotels in what was once a tourist hub are only at 27 percent capacity.
''We will continue to have an agenda, a tourism agenda, a touristic agenda, throughout the coming weeks and months for these parts to help boost the interest and the demand once again to Egypt,'' said the country's Tourism Minister Hisham Zaazou on Thursday.
In November 1922, archaeologists Howard Carter and the 5th Earl of Carnarvon, George Herbert together opened the tomb of Tutankhamun, revealing the Pharaoh's sarcophagus and a treasure trove of fabulous items in gold and precious stones.

"The hill fort which forms the entrance on the top of the hill has never been systematically excavated, but the land and ditch are sharply defined and well preserved. The entrance, at the south-east, is carefully defended by in-curving banks and guard houses outside. Inside the bank there are a number of hut sites and storage pits, scattered about the enclosure. Within the fortifications, is the grave of the fifth Earl of Carnarvon who played a prominent part in the expedition to the Nile Valley of the Kings which led to the discovery of Tutankhamen's Tomb in 1922" (Hantsweb)

The Curse of King Tutankhamun's Treasure - DOCUMENTARY
Tutankhamun (/ˌtuːtənkɑːˈmuːn/; alternatively spelled with Tutenkh-, -amen, -amon) was an Egyptian pharaoh of the 18th dynasty (ruled ca. 1332–1323 BC in the conventional chronology), during the period of Egyptian history known as the New Kingdom.
He is colloquially referred to as King Tut. His original name, Tutankhaten, means "Living Image of Aten", while Tutankhamun means "Living Image of Amun". In hieroglyphs, the name Tutankhamun was typically written Amen-tut-ankh, because of a scribal custom that placed a divine name at the beginning of a phrase to show appropriate reverence. He is possibly also the Nibhurrereya of the Amarna letters, and likely the 18th dynasty king Rathotis who, according to Manetho, an ancient historian, had reigned for nine years—a figure that conforms with Flavius Josephus's version of Manetho's Epitome.
The 1922 discovery by Howard Carter and George Herbert, 5th Earl of Carnarvon of Tutankhamun's nearly intact tomb received worldwide press coverage. It sparked a renewed public interest in ancient Egypt, for which Tutankhamun's mask, now in Cairo Museum, remains the popular symbol. Exhibits of artifacts from his tomb have toured the world. In February 2010, the results of DNA tests confirmed that he was the son of Akhenaten (mummy KV55) and Akhenaten's sister and wife (mummy KV35YL), whose name is unknown but whose remains are positively identified as "The Younger Lady" mummy found in KV35. The "mysterious" deaths of a few of those who excavated Tutankhamun's tomb has been popularly attributed to the curse of the pharaohs.
The belief in a curse was brought to many people's attention due to the sometimes mysterious deaths of a few members of Howard Carter's team and other prominent visitors to the tomb shortly thereafter. Carter's team opened the tomb of Tutankhamun (KV62) in 1922, launching the modern era of Egyptology.
