King Tut's Death Theory

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 King was born in the 11th year of his father’s reign in 1345 BCE and died in 1327 BCE at the age of just 17 or 18 after only being in power for 8 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 that he was a minor ruler, whose reign was of little consequence. However after this discovery and subsequent discoveries due to excavations, analysis of his mummy and other historical evidence, opinions changed, so much so that today Tutankhamun is recognized as an important

On November 4, 1922 Howard Carter discovered King Tutankhamun's tomb in Egypt. Howard Carter spent almost his whole life looking for King Tut’s tomb and when he found it he was over the moon. King Tut’s tomb was very important, it helped us learn more about earlier civilizations, and showed us what king tut's reign was like while he was king.

King Tut just died, but who killed him and why. Horemheb killed him because he was in charge of the whole military. The death of King Tut is a mystery that will never be discovered.

In conclusion, there has not yet been a definite cause of death for King Tut, but studies and tests performed on the mummy body mostly point to infection as his cause of death. He died at a very young age, however the medications and technology was not there like it is today. There will continue to be studies and testing done, but there will always only be speculation because he died so long ago.

Many people think that Tutankhamun’s death is to be caused by a hippopotamus, when others think of him dying from a major disease. He had ruled Ancient Egypt for around ten years (1334 B.C. to 1324 B.C.) until his mysterious death in 1324 B.C. at the age of nineteen (Nelson Ken, 2018). This riddle has became a crucial priority to the society. As Tutankhamun’s remains revealed a hole in the back of the skull, some historians and scientists concluded that he was assassinated, but is this true?

King Tut's death is one of the most controversial topics in the world. King Tut was a pharaoh who started ruling at a very young age and died at a very young age. The finding of his tomb was one of the greatest archaeological findings in all of history, because it was nearly untouched by grave robbers King tut's death has never been proven because the person who excavated his tomb broke a lot of King Tut's body trying to get past the sarcophagus to the actual body. There are many different theories saying that King Tut died of different causes. Especially one theory that is grown particularly famous which is that King Tut died of murder but one things for sure, King Tut did not die of murder, instead he died of malaria and a broken leg.

To begin with, King Tut could have been in a chariot accident. The pharaohs hunt and went to war on a chariot. He could have been hit by another chariot. In the article by Tim De Chant Did King Tut Die in a Chariot Accident he says,”Showed a distinct pattern of injuries on one side of Tut’s body.” He also had broken bones and leg, which could have possibly been from a chariot accident.

An Egyptian Pharaoh at the age of 19, mysteriously died. But how did he die? King Tut died because Horemheb killed him. I can prove this because in the end Horemheb was king with Tey without either one of them dying.

Tutankhamun a.k.a King Tut, was an Egyptian Pharaoh of the 18th Dynasty during the flow of Egyptian chronicle known as the New Realm or sometimes the New Kingdom Period. The last heir of a powerful family that had ruled Egypt and its empire for centuries, he was put to rest at the age of just 19 and covered with gold. The young Pharaoh vanished from history, until the discovery of his tomb in 1922. In discovery of the tomb an interesting artifact was found, known as “King Tut's Chest”. What do we know about this find and it's depiction of the battle scenes?

“Death shall come on swift wings to him who disturbs the peace of the king.” This warning is rumored to be engraved on the entrance of the tomb. There are theories that mold spores in the tomb were the cause of death for some “victims” of the curse. The Curse of King Tut is fake, and the related deaths have a logical explanation.

A second reason that king Tut could have died of natural causes, is the fact that it would not be that easy to commit murder on a king. For one, there wasn’t really a quick and easy way to commit murder 3,000 years ago. It was so long ago that guns hadn’t even been invented

The curse of King Tut is one of the most known curses in the world. The curse was placed upon the tomb of pharaohs. The main people who opened the tomb knew it was cursed but they opened the tomb anyway. Howard Carter, Lord Carnarvon, Lord Westbury, Richard Bethell, and Reis Ahamed all of which were at the tomb when it was opened. Howard Carter who was an archaeologist who lived in England,Discovered the tomb. Lord Carnarvon was Carter's financier for the expedition. ”He watched as Carter made a hole in the door”(The Unmuseum).With Bethell, Westbury, and Ahmed who were standing behind him. The curse of King Tut normally brought death upon those who opened the tomb. It sometimes even killed friends or family of the people

The unsettling Curse includes the disturbed mummy of the Boy King seeking revenge, yet there is no evidence of such a magical, supernatural experience. Therefore, the victims of the alleged Curse of King Tut died from simple, explainable reasons, proving that the wrath of the young pharaoh is legendary.

We believe King Tutankhamen died because of a combination of malaria and a broken leg. We think that he got the broken leg from a chariot racing accident, which was most likely caused by his decaying toes, which gave him bad balance.

The discovery of the tomb of King Tutankhamun has answered many questions and solved many mysteries about the life of people in Ancient Egypt. However, the life and death of the boy king is still a mystery itself. For example, one continual argument and mystery is how King Tut died. Although there are many opposing theories, King Tutankhamen died because he was already weak from genetic diseases, then broke his leg, which got infected and caused King Tut to die.
