Who Was Responsible For King Tut's Death
Back in Egypt’s day, there was a king named Tutankhamen. He became king at the age of 10 and die at 19. Why did Tut died early and what happened to him that made him die? I think King Tut was murdered. King Tut had all kinds of bad injuries on his body when he died. He had a tear on his cheek, missing rib cage, bone fragment in his head, deflect of hemorrhage, and broken bone leg. If King Tut had all those injuries, somebody must have killed him. King Tut had a wife named Ankhesenamun. Ankhesenamun was King Tut’s best friend when they were little. King Tut trusted Ankhesenamun because they were best friends. I think Ankhesenamun betrayed King Tut even if they were friends and together. After Tutankhamun die, Ankhesenamun send a letter to Hittites.

    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.

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. However, I believe that it does not prove to me that he died from that…

    Hatshepsut probably died around 1458 BCE, when she would have been in her late forties. It is assumed that she died of bone cancer, and that she may have also suffered from diabetes and arthritis. She had herself buried behind Deir el-Bahri, in the Valley of the Kings. In one final effort to legitimize her reign, she had her father’s sarcophagus moved to her tomb so they could lie together, in death. Thutmose III went on to rule Egypt for thirty more years after his aunt’s death, and, when he was in his fifties, began to remove all traces of Hatshepsut’s kingship.…

    Akhenaten believed that everybody should be happy. He peacefully lived in the new capital city Akhetaten but was unaware about what was happening outside of Egypt. Tushratta, the king of the Mittani (located in present-day Syria) sent a letter complaining that Akhenaten had sent gold-plated statues rather than sending statues made of solid gold.

    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.…

    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…

    Tupac, or 2Pac was an African-American rapper who had sold more than 75 million records worldwide, and was considered a hip-hop legend throughout his career. He was born on June 13th, 1971 and died a very tragic death on September 13th, 1996 . His death caused much sparkness to occur as of who it was that killed him, not of how he died. A lot of factors played in during his death, and considering the complexity of the murder, it was hard to tell if the death had been staged, or if it was all an act. Although, considering the circumstances, rivalries, and suspicions it can be concluded that Tupac Shakur was killed by the Crips gang, and that he isn’t alive in spite of the rumor that states that Tupac is still alive, or that his boss Suge Knight killed him.…

    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…

    Who is to blame for the deaths of these two young adults? Romeo and Juliet is a tragedy written by William Shakespeare ending with the deaths of two star-crossed lovers. Many events occur that lead to their deaths. Also, many characters have performed specific actions that push these two lovers closer towards their death.

    My theory on how King Tut died or was killed is that he was killed by Aye because he wanted to rule Egypt. He could have also committed suicide because he didn't want to have all the responsibilities of being king at a young age. He might have could have just been trying to have fun racing chariots with somebody and he lost control, and the chariot could have ran him over and injured him badly enough to kill…

    Tutankhamun was an Eighteenth Dynasty pharaoh whose legacy extends to the present, and currently one of the best-known ancient Egyptians of all-time. The “Boy King” inherited the throne at the age of nine, his reign lasting only ten years before his sudden unexpected death. The traditional burial customs and funeral processions were carried out upon him, but the tomb he was laid to rest in was unique from the typical Eighteenth Dynasty tombs characterised by their lavish style and large scale. This uniqueness has been evidenced in a variety of archaeological and written sources, which express the tomb’s historical significance.…
