Who was King Tut?

Question

(The old king of egypt)

Answer 1

King Nebkheperura Tutankhamun (King Tut for short) is probably the most famous of all the Pharaohs of Ancient Egypt, yet he was a short lived and fairly insignificant ruler during a transitional period in history.
Little was known of Tutankhamun prior to Howard Carters methodical detective work, but the discovery of his tomb and the amazing contents it held ultimately ensured this boy king of the Immortality he sought.

It is believed that Akhenaten and a lesser wife named Kiya were the parents of Tutankhaten, as Tutankhamun was known at first.

Soon after the deaths of Akhenaten and Smenkhkare, Tutankhaten became a Boy King at the age of about nine. He married a slightly older Ankhesenpaaten, one of the daughters of Akhenaten and Nefertiti.

After the ousting of the Aten power base they changed their names to Tutankhamun and Ankhesenamun to reflect the return to favour of the Amun hierarchy.

Due to his young age, Tutankhamun would not have been responsible for the real decision making. This would have been handled by two high officials, Ay (possibly the father of Nefertiti) and Horemheb, commander-in-chief of the army.

Sometime around the ninth year of Tutankhamun's reign, possibly 1325 B.C., he died. There is evidence of an injury to the skull that had time to partly heal. He may have suffered an accident, such as falling from his horse-drawn chariot, or perhaps he was murdered. No one knows. Ay oversaw Tutankhamun's burial arrangements which lasted 70 days.

Due to Tutankhamun having no heirs, Ay became Pharaoh and took Ankhesenamun as his queen to legitimise his rule. What happened to her after that is not known. Ay ruled for only four years and after his death Horemheb grabbed power. He soon obliterated evidence of the reigns of Akhenaten, Tutankhamun and Ay and substituted his own name on many monuments.

Answer 2

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).

Answer 3

Tutankhaten, "Living Image of Aten" was the "boy pharaoh" who began his reign at the age of 9 in 1333 BC, reigning until 1324 BC, during the Eighteenth Dynasty. As a ruler, he was relatively unimportant; his popularity stems from the "Valley of the Kings" being unearthed almost intact.

Answer 5

Its blurry all the facts about him. He's one of the air brained A-blood type male. At age four he noticed that his mind is going loose and melting like wine. Possibly at five he lost his "emotionalness" like being happy and smiling, having feelings like laughter. It exploded to pieces and he imagined them flying outwards in every direction outward. He also show signs of being sleepy at day and can't sleep well at night as if the black and white which is full vigor at day full rest at night turned out to be gray & gray and he couldn't stay really awake the whole day and at night he can only sleep in short bursts. One theory is that he invented the names of Akhenaten, Nefertiti, Kiya, Tiye, Ankhesenmun, Ay, Horemheb and Tut himself. At the age of four he imagined the imaginary Smenkhare and Nefernefruaten which only mean a male and female ghostlike pharoahs. There are no busts of both. All what he imagined occur at his age of 4. At five he could have convinced well his father Akhenaten and Kiya to accept the names he had given to them. And then he thought that Nefertiti should arrive so he wanted Akhenaten to find another woman and they bear a daughter who is Ankhesenamun. He wanted her and him to be the royal couple on a later time.
By this time he is about 5 years old. When the mind can still dream of long lucid ones like tombs and faces. One sure example is the KV55 with the fairly good memorization of the hieroglyphics at the mummy of an ordinary man (he dreamed the top most hieroglyphics moving slowly downward) his childhoodness made the dream so fresh to the mind he could memorize all of it. At this time he hate his present condition and told like "year 5" "wine". The next days or months he thought about the sequence of rule. Horemheb could be the brother of Akhenaten and Tut his nephew. The personality of Horemheb is very mature and he showed obvious strength and clearness of mind so he called him Horemheb which may mean "the man capable of staying strong for many years and the man who would clean every dirt of the curse I would left behind"
At this same young age he drew the tomb of Horemheb with its length just like the hieroglyphics and coffin dream.
He wanted his father do what himself will do if he become pharoah and Tut surely liked the sunlight and he told Akhenaten his dad to set the sun as the god to be followed and not anything else. Now he plan that the next pharoah to Akhenaten is the sexless invisible pharoah Smenkhare/Nefernefruaten and decided that it rule for a few years and then he would be the one to follow. Tut promised to himself to die at 19 so the fact that he can't have a long life made him decide that he would rule as a pharoah at so premature age of about 8. At about 12 his gray&gray kind of health worsened and he become sleepy at day. He imagined Ankhesenmun and her sorrow after his suicide. He on a wide place. And if floods occur there he could have imagined due-to-electricity-like things for example "Eternity", "Life" he surely is dreaming at day and imagined the flood. The storage jar that contained the sculpture of a cobra (there were cobras at Egypt) he said is filled with flood mud and he whispers "ankhesepaaten" and hated its sharpness. "PA ATEN" he inscribed later and decided to put them at the storage jar with the cobra. I guess A-blood type males got left hand heaviness (what is the blood type of Muammar Quaddafi who frequently moves his left hand?) and from this "irremovable" property of him. He thought of the tomb that contained no mummy which is KV63 and filled it with jars and everything he dreamed of he made come true.
The last thing is the tomb of Ankhesenamun (he dont care if it be named to Amenhotep II) he just want Ankhesenamun to be full of company when she died and the result if the KV35. He thought of getting the hair of Ankhesenmun and he heard a voice like "Tiye" and so he labeled it Tiye at his tomb. Now the explanation of the "hundred thousand years" found at his tomb is to "set or fix" the amount of time that will be "curse-free" in exchange for his sacrifice of own life. So it is between 1300 BC until 87000 AD. At the ancient times life is silent and the mind won't ever go mad. All the tombs at the Valley of the Kings are created in his own mind at a silent afternoon could be. The lengthy tombs and the curving all he thought of. His heart is removed and the sternum of him is missing. To keep the curse totally destroyed for eternity until the year 87000 AD. He got strong left so he punched the stone to his left thigh near the knee and bleed to death with his curving mummy due to pain unstoppable. His heart could be removed while he is still alive. The map of the valley of the kings if the mountains are erased would appear like a human figure in schematic form and he made the way from the head upward and the arm to the top 'road'. He is the one who wrote the name for the valley. All his goal is Ankhesenmuns peace and the erasure of his curse.
