Summary

Description

This is a set of Egyptian hunting boomerangs found in king Tutankhamun's mostly intact KV62 tomb among his funerary goods. These hardwood boomerangs could not return to their hunter due to their curvature unlike other boomerangs found in Tutankhamun's tomb. It is one of the many treasures found from the burial of Tutankhamun who ruled during the powerful Eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt period of Egypt’s New Kingdom era.
