    Tutankhamun is one of the most famous and instantly recognisable Pharaohs of the modern world, even though he lived and reigned over 3,000 years ago. The boy Pharaoh was born under the name Tutankhaten (`living image of Aten'), in 1345 BCE and died in 1327 BCE at the age of just 18 or 19, after only being in power for 10 years. Until archaeologist Howard Carter discovered his almost fully-intact tomb in the Valley of the Kings in 1922 CE, the Pharaoh was almost unheard of due to the common belief

    Ancient Egyptian is one of the oldest countries in the world. It is divided into three kingdoms Old, Middle, and New. Today I will be discussing the beautiful Queen Nefertiti and her kingdom. She comes from the New Kingdom. Her name means the beautiful women has come and her husband who was Pharaoh Akhenaten ruled during the 14 century B.C. Artwork from the day depicts the couple in an unusually naturalistic and individualistic style, more so than from earlier eras. Ancient Egyptian

    In Ancient Egypt, there was no way to investigate a murder. Even if there was, most records of King Tut have been erased! Archeologists have been making educated guesses about King Tutankhamun’s death since the 1920’s. One theory is that he was murdered by Aye, his power-hungry chief advisor. This is because King Tut’s mummy was very badly injured. Akhenaten was Tut’s father and pharaoh before him. He was nicknamed the “Heretic King” for trying to convert Egypt to monotheism. Monotheism is

Tutankhamun's birth name was Tutankhaten, which he changed after his father died. Tutankhamun was born to one of his father's lesser wives and not to his main wife, the powerful Nefertiti. His presence may have caused some strain in the royal courts as Nefertiti had only daughters, but desperately wanted to have a son of her own to take over the throne. At the young age of seven years

    My overall opinion on how King Tut died is he got killed in battle. I think he got really mad at the Hittites, because the Hittites and Egypt were enemies. King Tut got mad at the Hittites and they went to war. King Tut had a very bad broken leg and his tomb was far away from where he died. King Tut had a cut on his cheek so he could of got shot in the back of the head with a arrow and fell and broke his leg and cut his cheek. The Hittites were all aiming for King

    Alejandro Sánchez –Ávila Sánchez - Ávila 1 Mr. Fitzpatrick CHW3M1-03 December 1, 2014 The murder of Tutankhamun After the discovery of Tutankhamun’s tomb in 1922, scholars determined that although the cause of death is still unknown, he died when he was only 19 years old.
