Did Carter receive any royal honors for his work?

  • No

  • Yes

Answer

No, Carter did not receive any royal honors for his work. Despite his groundbreaking discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb, his contributions were not formally recognized by the British monarchy. This oversight has been attributed to various factors, including Carter's independent nature and the perceived threat his findings posed to established archaeological norms.
