Howard Carter was a British archaeologist and Egyptologist who became world-famous after discovering the intact tomb of the 18th Dynasty Pharaoh, Tutankhamun (colloquially known as "King Tut" and "the boy king"), in November 1922.
Maybe, what can be referred as conflict is that Howard excavated and cleared the tomb with its thousands of objects continuing until 1932, and then when Howard died, his own tomb read a text from the "Wishing cup of <span>Tutankhamun" saying:
<<</span>"May your spirit live, may you spend millions of years, you who love Thebes, sitting with your face to the north wind, your eyes beholding happiness, and <span>O night, spread thy wings over me as the imperishable stars." >>
This as a symbol of return or as honor and respect for the king, from which Howard had excavated.</span>
The major cause of the French and Indian War was A. DISAGREEMENTS BETWEEN THE FRENCH AND BRITISH OVER LAND CLAIMS AND THE FUR TRADE.
By the mid-18th century, both the British and French wanted to extend their colonies in North America to the land west of the Appalachian Mountains. The land was known as the Ohio Territory. Both British and French already established fur traders doing business with Native Americans and pioneers living on the frontier. Because both sides want to monopolize the fur trade in that area and expand their colonies, they underwent numerous assaults against each other.
The disagreement escalated and eventually resulted to the French and Indian War. A world war that raged seven years involving all European powers.
Colonization took away resources and land that belonged to the natives
