So much historical inaccuracy
Just a few things I noticed:
1) The King Tut discovery was claimed by the Egyptian official in the name of "the Republic of Egypt." However, the Republic of Egypt wasn't established until 1953; the tomb was discovered in 1922.
2) All the men carried pistols, but none of them had gun belts or ammunition. I guess they just carried the guns and loose bullets in their trouser pockets?
3) Pistols back then had six bullet chambers, so a man could only get off six shots before he had to reload. Yet when the two Egyptian guys chase Danny Fremont in the camel race, they get off at least 14 bullets without reloading.
4) The Hellfire Council meets in a huge mansion with a lush green lawn. There were no sprinkler systems in 1922 -- how did they grow all that grass?
5) The Hellfire Council meets in a room illuminated by candlelight and firelight. Yet the university classrooms have overhead electric fans. You'd think it would be the opposite -- the wealthy mansion would have electricity, the university would lack it. And did they even have electricity in Egypt in the 1920's? Much of America didn't have it until the 1930's. Meanwhile, Dr. Barakat works in a museum where the windows aren't even opened despite the constant Egyptian heat.
6) When Danny is filming the interior of Tut's tomb, he sets up spotlights all around the interior of the tomb. How did he power up those electric lights -- just plug them into the nearest outlet in the tomb?
7) The British bad guys wear layers of clothing -- shirts, ties, vests, jackets -- although the temperature is in the 90's in Egypt in the winter. One of them wears a yellow tie -- there were no yellow ties until the 1980s!
8) Dr. Azelia Barakat wears clothing that would be appropriate today -- a fitted pink blouse with 3/4-length sleeves, a fitted skirt with zipper, and a bra. Women didn't start wearing bras until the 1930's. Women's clothing in the 1920's tended to be loose-fitting (particularly on top) and skirts were predominantly calf-length.
9) The men's trousers were zippered. Zippers weren't added to men's trousers until the late 1930's.
10) Sinclaire's character wears sunglasses in one scene. Although the technology existed prior to 1922, sunglasses weren't produced commercially until after 1929.
11) Sinclaire knows that Danny has planted the King Tut funeral mask because it's "found" in shallow soil and thus not covered by centuries worth of sand. Yet the entrance to the tomb is itself found in shallow soil and not buried by centuries worth of sand.
12) Dr. Barakat apparently works in Cairo and Danny teaches there. King Tut's tomb is in Luxor, hundreds of miles away. Yet they go back and forth between the two as though they're located in adjoining suburbs. And how did they do that anyway -- just grab a camel from the parking lot?
13) It may have been cheaper to film in India, but Indian people do not look or sound like Egyptians! And Chilean actress Leonor Varela sounded Spanish, not Egyptian.
14) All those wealthy Hellfire Council guys meet again and again -- and yet they wear the same clothing every time. Dr. Barakat is apparently the one one who ever changes her clothing.
15) A single shot of antibiotic cures terminal TB? That doesn't happen even today. Plus antibiotics were't developed until the 1930's.
I'm sure there's more.....
