Chased Gold Falcon Collar with Small Counterpoise
This artifact was used as a protection for the pharaoh's body, and was placed between his bandages, preserving it very well. The more layers of bandage there were, the more artifacts there were inside. In King Tut's wrapping, there were a total of 143 pieces of jewelry.
Falcon Pectoral
This artifact was meant to tell time in a sense, for it simulated the Sun God, and it possibly affected how "light" and happy the King's afterlife would be. It was made of very rich materials, including: "lapis lazuli, turquoise, carnelian, and light blue glass, with perhaps obsidian for the eye" (touregypt.net).
Scarab Bracelet with Ankh and Infinity Signs
This is a flexible bracelet that was found on the arm of the buried Pharaoh. The Scarab Bracelet is the animal manifestation of Ra, as the type of beetle "appeared out of nowhere" as the sun did, which Ra was the God of.
Human-Headed Winged Cobra
This is a very odd artifact that doesn't exactly fit with the others. It is believed that the Goddess it honored was named Meretseger, because she is the only serpent depicted with a human head. Since cobras were usually grouped in fives, archaeologists have concluded that the embalmers misplaced the amulet into the wrong wrapping.
Golden Pendent with Many Gods and Goddesses
This pendant has helped us understand Egyptian art much better. The color in this painting is very interesting, due to the fact that the flesh of the people is blue instead of a normal pigment. This could not be a mistake, because Egyptians were very precise about color. It has been concluded that the Egyptians say the color light blue as a green or white color, and a darker blue as black.
Eye of Horus Bracelet
This is a bracelet made of very expensive materials, the bracelet itself being gold, the eye made of lapiz lazuli, and the pupil made of pure obsidian. This bracelet rested on King Tut's arm for almost 600 years before it was discovered by Dr. Howard Carter in 1922.
Floral Necklace with Beads
This collar has multiple rows of faience beads, and each color stands for another fruit, berry, or leaf. This necklace is incredibly important, as it enabled us to figure out in what season Tutankhamun was buried based on the colors of the patterns of these necklaces.
Golden Buckle
This buckle is very important to history because it gives us a rough time period in which the chariot was invented, a vehicle crucial to future wars and a very important part of Rome and Greek culture.
Djed Pillar
This pillar is very strange when contrasted with the other artifacts. The four jutting pieces going up to the top of the pillar are believed to represent the vertebrae, and the entire statue is supposed to be the backbone of Osiris itself, and holds up the Underworld from having Lower Egypt (the spiritual one) collapse on it. This may be true, but there are also multiple other theories that are still accepted today.
Golden Diadem
I saved the best for last. This artifact may be the most elegant and precious thing in Tutankhamun's casket, as it was carefully concealed under his helmet. This was likely placed over his wig, and worn as a crown during his lifetime. The vulture and the snake, which can be found protruding from the diadem, represent his rule over Upper (snake) and Lower (falcon) Egypt.
