class="wp-block-list"><li>Lord Carnarvon was born George Edward Stanhope Molyneux Herbert in 1866.</li><li>His father was Henry Herbert, the 4th Earl of Carnarvon, and his mother was Lady Evelyn Stanhope.</li><li>Lord Carnarvon attended Eton College and Trinity College, Cambridge.</li><li>From his maternal grandmother, he inherited Bretby Hall in Derbyshire, and he became the 5th Earl of Carnarvon following the death of his father in 1890.</li><li>In 1895 he married Almina Victoria Maria Alexandra Wombwell, the illegitimate daughter of Alfred de Rothschild. Rothschild paid a marriage settlement of £500,000 (a sum that would total more than £60 million today). This allowed Lord Carnarvon to pay off all of his debts.</li><li>In 1902, Lord Carnarvon set up the Highclere Stud to breed racehorses.</li><li>His grandson, the 7th Earl of Carnarvon was Queen Elizabeth II’s racing manager.</li><li>In 1903, after becoming injured in a car accident, his doctors recommended that he spend winters abroad. He started to visit Egypt, and became a keen Egyptologist, seeking out antiquities for a collection he was putting together in England.</li><li>In 1907, he employed <a href="https://primaryfacts.com/2794/howard-carter-facts-and-information/">Howard Carter</a> to carry out the excavation of some Ancient Egyptian tombs near Thebes.</li></ul> <div class="wp-block-image"> <figure class="aligncenter size-full"><a href="https://primaryfacts.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Lord-Carnarvon-Howard-Carter.jpg"><img fetchpriority="high" decoding="async" width="271" height="448" src="https://primaryfacts.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Lord-Carnarvon-Howard-Carter.jpg" alt="Lord Carnarvon and Howard Carter" class="wp-image-9665" srcset="https://primaryfacts.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Lord-Carnarvon-Howard-Carter.jpg 271w, https://primaryfacts.com/wp-content/uploads/2022/10/Lord-Carnarvon-Howard-Carter-181x300.jpg 181w" sizes="(max-width: 271px) 100vw, 271px"/></a></figure><span id="ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-710" data-method="ai-placeholders" class="ezoic-autoinsert-ad"></span><span data-ez-ph-id="710"></span></div> <ul class="wp-block-list"><li>In 1914, he again employed Howard Carter, this time to search the Valley of the Kings for any tombs missed during previous explorations and excavations. The search was hampered by World War I, but in 1922 Howard Carter sent a telegram to Lord Carnarvon to inform him that a sealed tomb had been located.</li><li>Lord Carnarvon was present with his daughter, Lady Evelyn Herbert, when the staircase to the tomb was cleared, and he was present when the sealed doorway to the room containing Tutankhamun’s cartouche was breached.</li><li>Some reports suggest that Howard Carter, Lord Carnarvon, and Lady Evelyn Herbert entered the inner burial chamber of Tutankhamun’s tomb before the arrival of the officials of the Egyptian Department of Antiquities.</li><li>Lord Carnarvon sold the rights to report on the Tutankhamun excavation to <em>The Times</em> newspaper.</li><li>In 1923, Lord Carnarvon received a severe mosquito bite. The bite became infected after he nicked it with a razor when he was shaving, and he died of blood poisoning in Cairo.</li><li>The press speculated that Lord Carnarvon had been struck down by the Curse of Tutankhamun, and <a href="https://primaryfacts.com/4686/sir-arthur-conan-doyle-facts-about-the-creator-of-sherlock-holmes/">Arthur Conan Doyle</a> (the author of the Sherlock Holmes books) suggested that Lord Carnarvon had been killed by elemental priests guarding the tomb.</li><li>Lord Carnarvon’s country house, Highclere Castle, featured in the <em>Downton Abbey </em>TV series.</li><li>Lord Carnarvon was played by Sam Neil in ITV’s 2016 <em>Tutankhamun</em> television series.</li></ul> </div><span id="ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-709" data-method="ai-placeholders" class="ezoic-autoinsert-ad"></span><span data-ez-ph-id="709"></span><!-- .entry-content --> <footer class="entry-meta"> </footer><!-- .entry-meta --> </div> </article><!-- #post-## --> <nav class="navigation post-navigation" aria-label="Posts"> <h2 class="screen-reader-text">Post navigation</h2> <div class="nav-links"><div class="nav-previous"><a href="https://primaryfacts.com/9651/peter-blake-facts/" rel="prev"><i class="fa fa-chevron-left"></i> <span class="post-title">Peter Blake Facts</span></a></div><div class="nav-next"><a href="https://primaryfacts.com/9670/michael-rosen-facts/" rel="next"><span class="post-title">Michael Rosen Facts <i class="fa fa-chevron-right"></i></span></a></div></div> </nav> </main><!-- #main --> </div><!-- #primary --> </div><!-- close .main-content-inner --> <div id="secondary" class="widget-area col-sm-12 col-md-4" role="complementary"><span id="ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-703" data-method="ai-placeholders" class="ezoic-autoinsert-ad"></span><span data-ez-ph-id="703"></span> <div class="well"><span id="ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-122" class="ezoic-adpicker-ad"></span><span data-ez-ph-id="122"></span> <aside id="search-4" class="widget widget_search"> <form role="search" method="get" class="form-search" action="https://primaryfacts.com/"> <div class="input-group"> <label class="screen-reader-text" for="s">Search for:</label> <input type="text" class="form-control search-query" placeholder="Search…" value="" name="s" title="Search for:"/> <span class="input-group-btn"> <button type="submit" class="btn btn-default" name="submit" id="searchsubmit" value="Search"><span class="glyphicon glyphicon-search"></span></button> </span> </div> </form> </aside><aside id="text-12" class="widget widget_text"> <div class="textwidget"><span id="ezoic-pub-ad-placeholder-104"></span> </div> </aside><aside id="block-2" class="widget widget_block widget_text"> <p><a href="https://primaryfacts.com/amazon-associates-disclaimer/" data-type="page" data-id="8492">Amazon Affiliate Disclaimer</a></p> </aside><aside id="widget_sp_image-2" class="widget widget_sp_image"><h3 class="widget-title">Rise of the Metrimancer</h3><a href="https://www.royalroad.com/fiction/80241/rise-of-the-metrimancer/chapter/1486991/chapter-1-the-marking-ceremony" target="_blank" class="widget_sp_image-image-link" title="Rise of the Metrimancer"><img width="245" height="400" alt="Rise of the Metrimancer" class="attachment-full aligncenter" style="max-width: 100%;" srcset="https://primaryfacts.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Rise-of-the-Metrimancer.jpg 245w, https://primaryfacts.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Rise-of-the-Metrimancer-184x300.jpg 184w" sizes="(max-width: 245px) 100vw, 245px" src="https://primaryfacts.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/01/Rise-of-the-Metrimancer.jpg"/></a></aside> <aside id="recent-posts-5" class="widget widget_recent_entries"> <h3 class="widget-title">Recent Posts</h3> <ul> <li> <a href="https://primaryfacts.com/9708/christmas-in-australia/">Christmas in Australia: Facts About Australian Christmas Traditions</a> </li> <li> <a href="https://primaryfacts.com/9695/facts-about-the-minotaur/">Facts About The Minotaur</a> </li> <li> <a href="https://primaryfacts.com/9691/10-marcus-rashford-quotes/">10 Marcus Rashford Quotes</a> </li> <li> <a href="https://primaryfacts.com/9670/michael-rosen-facts/">Michael Rosen Facts</a> </li> <li> <a href="https://primaryfacts.com/9664/lord-carnarvon-facts/" aria-current="page">Lord Carnarvon Facts</a> </li> <li> <a href="https://primaryfacts.com/9651/peter-blake-facts/">Peter Blake Facts</a> </li> <li> <a href="https://primaryfacts.com/9648/vivienne-westwood-facts/">Vivienne Westwood Facts</a> </li> <li> <a href="https://primaryfacts.com/9643/kurt-schwitters-facts/">Kurt Schwitters Facts</a> </li> <li> <a href="https://primaryfacts.com/9638/what-is-photorealism/">What is Photorealism?
