Dr Ramirez says: ‘It seems Howard took the parts 支援する to London hoping perhaps to 再建する them. Instead, he gave them away to 知識s.’
The programme 告発する／非難するs Carter of 密輸するing 24 items out of Egypt in contravention of an 輸出（する） 禁止（する） on any of the 反対するs 位置を示すd in the boy king’s tomb.
These 含む parts of the collar ? sketched and photographed at the time by the British-led 穴掘り team ? which was later discovered 行方不明の when the 3,000-year-old mummy was X-rayed in 1968.

The programme’s 事例／患者 against Carter draws ひどく on the work of the French Egyptologist Marc Gabolde, who has spent years 調査／捜査するing its 見えなくなる.
He believes a necklace which （機の）カム up for auction in London in 2015 含むd gold beads taken from the 初めの collar.

The programme 主張するs that Carter, who died 老年の 64 in 1939, sold the 強硬派s to a collector. Subsequently they were sold to an amateur Egyptologist, who in turn sold them to the museum in 1967. And Carter may have had form when it （機の）カム to 不当利得行為 from 発見s. Archaeologist Dr Monica Hanna says: ‘There aren’t 完全にする innocents and there aren’t 完全にする villains and I think he was a mix of both.
‘He probably at some times tried to do his best to 保護する the 場所／位置s and at other times he did what was best for his own 利益／興味s.’
