description: The true glory of the gold of ancient Egypt was revealed this century by the treasure found in the tombs of Tutankhamun (in the Valley of the Kings) and Psusennes I (at Tanis). Alongside necklaces, bracelets, rings and ear-rings lay death masks carved in solid gold. The formal perfection of these magnificent objects bears witness to both the technical mastery and the astounding imagination of the artists who worked in the Nile Valley.
