The historical beard was broken during the cleaning session of the unnamed cleaner, then authority thought of something to sort this problem out. And at last they came on this idea – gluing the beard back using some adhesive called Epoxy.

However, a spokesman later said “Epoxy has a high ­property for attaching and is used on metal or stone but it wasn’t suitable for Tutankhamun’s golden mask. They were in a rush to get it displayed quickly again”.
