Stunning Levantine gold artefacts found in Tutankhamun’s tomb are revealed for the first time in almost a century
Almost 100 gold artefacts found in King Tut's tomb were made in the Middle East
The treasure included decorative fittings for bow cases, quivers and bridles
They were were transported hundreds of miles to be placed in the tomb
Among the finds are images of fighting animals and goats at the tree of life
These motifs are foreign to Egyptian art and must have come from the Levant
