Scientists have debunked the myth of the curse of Tutankhamun.

For many years, it was believed that people involved in the opening of the tomb later died due to mystical circumstances, which was referred to as the curse of Tutankhamun. Now, scientists have refuted this fact and stated that the cause of the researchers' deaths was the fungus Aspergillus, which causes the so-called 'cave disease'. The pathogen was found in the tomb.
