The decoration used on Tutankhamen’s mask includes:

  1. False braided beard - This is a typical feature on Egyptian pharaohs’ masks, symbolizing their divine status.
  2. Royal gold and blue striped nemes cloth - The nemes is a striped headcloth associated with ancient Egyptian royalty.
  3. Uraeus and vulture at the brow - The uraeus (a representation of a rearing cobra) and the vulture are symbols of royalty and protection in ancient Egyptian culture.

Ravens on the shoulder is not a correct answer, as Tutankhamen's mask does not feature ravens.

So the correct responses are:

  • False braided beard
  • Royal gold and blue striped nemes cloth
  • Uraeus and vulture at the brow
