can anybody giv me details about the king tutankhamun?

Answer 1

Tutankhamun assumed the throne of Egypt around 1334 B.C. as a nine year old boy, He was the son of Akhenaton (Amenhotpe IV) and one of his minor wifes, probably Kiya.

During his childhood he was exposed to the new religion his father had impossed, and was married while being still a child to Ankesenpaaton, a daughter of Akenaton and Nefertiti., insuring his legitimacy as king of egypt.

With the passing of his father, Tutankhaton and his court resided in Amarna, and it was until three years later that he restored the ancient Amun cult, and changed his name to Tutankhanmun.

Because of Tutankhamun's youth and Atonistic background, his active role in return to orthodoxy must have been minimal. In fact, Tutankhamun's achievements were probably less a result of his will than the activity of two important individuals: the vizier Ay and the general Haremhab. The Aged Ay had a close association with Amarna, where he served as overseer of all the king's horses, and where he had prepared an imposing tomb for himself; because of his attachment to the Amarna royal family, indicated by his title "God's father", Ay was probably responsible for the moderation that characterized the return to polytheism. The similarity between Ay's titles and those of Yuya, Queen Teye's father as well as conections both men had with the upper egyptian town of Akhmim, does lend some support to the theory that Ay was Nafertiti's father.

On the other hand, Haremhab, who must have been an army commander under Akenaton, had less disscernible associations with Amarna, nor did he have any blood relationships with the royal family. As king's deputy haremhab was much involved in internal reconstruction and, perhaps more than Ay, was the dynamic power behind the throne. To the south Egypt was firmly on control of the Nubian gold mines, mainly Haremhabs Job.

While the restoration of the old cults was still in progress, Tutankhamun suddendly died. Mystery surrounds his death. It has been observed that his skull exhibits some damage which might be interpreted as indicating that he was assassinated, although it is possible that this injury occurred after his death. Also interesting are two mummified stillborn children, probably male and female, placed in his tomb. While they could easily be the dashed hopes of the royal couple for continuing their line, it has also been proposed that the fetuses were interred with Tutankhamun for religious reasons, to aid symbolically in the revivification of the dead king through the male and female principle.

Answer 2

Nebkheperure Tutankhamun (alternately spelled with Tuten-, -amen, -amon; lack of written vowels in ancient Egyptian allows for different transliterations) was Pharaoh of the Eighteenth dynasty of Egypt (ruled 1333 BC – 1323 BC), during the period of Egyptian history known as the New Kingdom. His original name, Tutankhaten, meant "Living Image of Aten", while Tutankhamun meant "Living Image of Amun".

In historical terms, Tutankhamun is of only moderate significance, and most of his modern popularity stems from the fact that his tomb in the Valley of the Kings was discovered almost completely intact. However, he is also significant as a figure who managed the beginning of the transition from the heretical Atenism of his predecessors Akhenaten and Smenkhkare back to the familiar Egyptian religion. As Tutankhamun began his reign at age 9, his vizier and eventual successor Ay was probably making most of the important political decisions during Tutankhamun's reign. Nonetheless, Tutankhamun is, in modern times, the most famous of the Pharaohs, and the only one to have a nickname in popular culture ("King Tut"). The 1922 discovery by Howard Carter of Tutankhamun's nearly intact tomb (subsequently designated KV62) received worldwide press coverage and sparked a renewed public interest in Ancient Egypt, of which Tutankhamun remains the popular face.

Tutankamun's parentage is uncertain. An inscription calls him a king's son, but it is not clear which king was meant. Most scholars think that he was probably a son either of Amenhotep III (though probably not by his Great Royal Wife Tiye), or more likely a son of Amenhotep III's son Akhenaten around 1342 BC. However, Professor James Allen argues that Tutankhamun was more likely to be a son of the short-lived king Smenkhkare rather than Akhenaten. Allen argues that Akhenaten consciously chose a female co-regent named Neferneferuaten to succeed him rather than Tutankhamun which is unlikely if the latter was indeed his son.[2] Tutankhamun was married to Ankhesenpaaten (possibly his sister), and after the re-establishment of the traditional Egyptian religion the couple changed the –aten ending of their names to the –amun ending, becoming Ankhesenamun and Tutankhamun. They had two known children, both stillborn girls – their mummies were discovered in his tomb.
