King Tut's tomb was robbed/raided at least twice before being scientifically excavated in 1922.

This is actually the seal on the fourth, and innermost, gold-plated shrine around Tutankhamun’s sarcophagus. The shrines were each decorated with scenes related to the resurrection of the dead including parts of the Book of the Dead. You can now see them in Cairo. The oval shape on the right is the official seal of the Royal Necropolis which shows Anubis with nine bound captives representing the foes of Egypt.

The outermost shrines were opened by Howard Carter on the evening that the tomb was uncovered. Carter, his patron Lord Carnarvon, and I think Carnarvon’s daughter, entered the tomb, moved objects and opened the shrines. Carter omitted this from his accounts and from the eventual books, presumably because that would have been a perfect excuse for the Antiquities Service of Egypt to remove Carter from the excavation. It may have been during this time that a number of small objects were removed from the tomb, never documented and ended up in Carter’s private collection (and eventually went to the Met in New York).
