For decades, Western explorers and archaeologists had dominated the search for Egypt's ancient past. But in 1919, a nationwide uprising led by Saad Zaghloul reshaped the country's future. Britain granted Egypt limited independence in 1922, sparking new demands for control over its own heritage. In the midst of this political upheaval, British archaeologist Howard Carter uncovered the tomb of Tutankhamun - an extraordinary find that became a global sensation and transformed Egyptology overnight.
