King Tut

Nickel, sulfur, and chlorine elemental distribution maps of one side of King Tut's dagger, analyzed with portable XRF spectroscopy.

Got onto this from a YouTube video short. Another example of a special kind of spectrometry. This one is X-ray fluorescence. Previous posts about spectroscopy. Spectroscopy and spectrometry are two different words. ATA Scientific Instruments explains them both. The difference might matter to some people, but to me it's more like the difference between either and either.

there's a "mandela effect" with King Tut where he (statue sarcophagus?) used to have only a snake around his head or as a headress of some Egyptian kind. Now there is some other creature added...birds head maybe...vulture?
