King Tut Research Paper
One of the Theories is King Tut got Murder by Aye. When King Tut’s father ruled he only let the people worship the Sun God. The people used to worship many gods, so they were mad, but they couldn’t do anything because King Tut’s father was a Pharaoh so they had to worship only one. When King Tut’s father died. He had to rule Egypt. But King Tut was only 9 years old, so he needed help to rule a country. So His Father's former advisor named Aye helped King Tut ruled Egypt. Aye wanted the power to become Pharaoh. But King Tut had died Aye became the new Pharaoh. Nobody knew who killed King Tut Maybe it was Aye because he wanted to become Pharaoh. But why didn’t he kill King Tut a few years. Well he wanted to have King Tut’s trust so no one could ever Aye kill King Tut for the throne. But do you think King Tut died from murder or illness?

Many people did not really like King Tut he was ruling at 9 years old and a 9 year can even drive a car nowadays but once you think about it many people did not like a 9 year old ruling and they were very impatient about him and that and that’s where aye comes in it looks like he was very happy that King Tut’s father died he thought he’d be crowned king but no he wasn’t expecting a 9 year old to rule the civilization he thought he’d give king tut sometime to rule to civilization and then one day it

However, the evidence most strongly points to how that King Tut was killed by Aye, and Horemheb because Aye only ruled Egypt for about 4 years after King Tut’s death supusicoly. After Aye died Horemheb became the new Pharaoh just as I thought though horemheb got really impatient and decided to end his ruling. More proof is that King Tut has cracks on his skull so he could have been hit by a block or some other object that would have done the damaged. In Conclusion King Tut could have been murdered by both, Aye and

    The past theories of it being accident I think should also be put to rest. King Tutankhamen had a condition called temporal lobe epilepsy but that was not the cause of his death. Dr. Hutan Ashrafian believed that was to be the cause of his death. From the air of program on PBS which air points from which they used a variety of simulations physical tests including chemical and electronic microscopic tests on actual samples of King Tut’s mummified flesh to verify the theory that King Tut was hit by a chariot traveling at full speed pace.

    Another incident that occured was the explorer and founder of the location of King Tut, Howard Carter's pet canary had been bitten by a cobra and shortly after died. Another story is that at two o'clock in the morning as Lord Carnarvon was dying, his pet dog howled and dropped dead as well. No one had put together the fact that it was ten years after he had discovered the mummy, that all of this occured, some call it coinscidence, some call it the curse of the mummy. Recent studies show that the logical reasoning behind "the curse" was bacteria on the wall. The bacteria could release air bourn cells causing a person to become ill. King Tut was born in 1343 BC. King Tut changed his name because of the pressure people were putting on him, they said his current name resembled a god, Amun, too much. His previous name was Tutankhaten, later changed to Tutankhamun. His father was the Heretic King.…

    Akhenaton (Amenhotep IV) was an eighteenth dynasty pharaoh who is known for his attempt to change Egyptian culture and religion. As the younger son of Amenhotep III, he would have not been pharaoh but when his elder brother (crown prince Thutmose) died he had a claim for the thrown and became the Pharaoh of Egypt. Akhenaton had many wives and fathered many children. His wives (or consorts) include Nefertiti and Kiya; some Egyptologists suggest that (like his father) Akhenaton may have taken some daughters as wives or consorts. Akhenaton’s known children are: Tutankhaten (later known as Tuankhamun and King Tut), Smenkhkare, Meritaten, Meketaten, Ankhesenpaaten (later wife of Tuankhamun), Neferneferuaten Tasherit, Neferneferure and…

    Imagine if a 4th grader rose to power in your town, won’t you be mad, especially if you were supposed to be the next ruler? King Tut took power over Egypt when he was just 9 years old, and he ruled until his violent death at age 19. There are many theories to how King Tut died, but after many studies there is proof that he could have been assassinated. Ay, Tuts elderly chief and successor, may have been the shooter . In Mysteries of Egypt - Cause of Tutankhamun’s death, the article states, “Since Tutankhamun did not have a child to succeed him, it appears that Ay decided to seize the crown and declare himself King of Egypt.” Also in the article says,“His (Tut’s) young wife Ankhesenamun pleaded with the king of the Hittites to send her one…

    Hammurabi Dbq

    Why would a pharaoh, already acknowledged as divine, attempt a religious revolution? Why did he fail? In the passage of “Hymn to the Aten” monotheism is expressed as one sun and God. It talks of how the sun gives life and light. It expresses God as the sun which gives live during the day and in the sunset we die. I do not really understand why a pharaoh would attempt a religious revolution but maybe he wanted power for one man. I think he was comparing himself to the one God and he wanted to become that one God. In my opinion he failed because he lacked power and control. He lacked followers and there were many who believed in many gods in ancient times. Many people saw Akhenaten as the…

    Akhenaten, the so called "Heretic Pharaoh  was a Ruler of Egypt during the period known as the 18th Dynasty. He ascended to the throne as Amenhotep IV, succeeding his father Amenhotep III. Akhenaten's brief reign, of hardly more than sixteen years, happened at a difficult time in Egyptian history; a period in which the decline of the previously unparalleled Egyptian empire seemed inevitable. Many scholars maintain that Akhenaten was responsible for this decline, but evidence suggests that it had already started. Whatever his connection with the decline of the Empire, one aspect of Akhenaten's reign is indisputable: his religious reforms. Effectively discarding the beliefs of an Empire, Akhenaten denounced the existing polytheist religious…

    The "heretic king" Akhenaten "Beneficial for Aten" was born Amenhophis IV "Amun is satisfied". (Oxford Encyclopedia of Ancient Egypt Volume I, pg 49) By the time he was seated as pharaoh in 1350 BCE there was already growing tension between the priesthood of Amun and his father Amenhophis III. "The power of the priesthood of Amun was threatening the traditional kingship," (Handout, The Legacy of Egypt, pg 17) and Amenhophis III knew that something had to be done to secure the power of the pharaohs. However, it was his son Amenhophis IV who would be the one to accomplish this, and in the process would exercise more control over the destiny of the elite than any earlier pharaoh.
