I was trying to pin down the exact year the original Tut exhibition arrived in NYC in the late seventies and was surprised to learn there’s currently a new exhibition tour.

They’ll get it fixed right in a few Horus. Unless Isis comes along to smash the whole thing.

I predict the “joint scientific committee” will ultimately recommend that a mixture of Bisphenol A Resin, Diisodecyl Phthalate and Magnesium Silicate, be used to permanently reattach King TUt’s beard.

Catalytic homopolymerisation would occur from such a mixture (LOL! I see what you did there, and you are probably right)...
