King Tut was one of Egypt's youngest kings, as he began his rein at the age of nine. He reigned in a period of ancient Egypt inwhich Egypt reached the height of its power and glory, the New Kingdom. The reason he is so well known is that his tomb was the only tomb found that had never been disturbed. This told historians much of ancient Egypt's customs and traditions. The mummy was still in the tomb so they performed many tests on it including a CT scan to find out that he died from a swift attack of gangrene, that occured in the fracture in his leg, that became gangrenous only days before he died. He died around an estimated age of 19. It was proved that he was not murdered, as how many people thought of because there was a hole in the back of his head, which we found out later was drilled by the emabalmers. Much was learned about his life. He had generally been in good health. Her had an overbite that ran in his family. He was slight of build and roughly 5'7"tall (170cm).
