A father
People assume King Tut's father was Akhenaten or Amenhotep III Is Akhenaten King Tut's father?


King Tut has been either created to be the son of Akhenaten or the offspring of Amenhotep III, who was Akhenaten's father.

The First Tragic Event


As Live Science reports, the mummy of Akhenaten indicates that he was around 26 when he died, though he may have been as young as 19 to 22. Historical records, meanwhile, suggest that he died when he was around 40. So we don't quite know yet.

The Second Tragic Event
King Tut was reported dead at age 19.
Some suspect he was murdered while others suspect that he crashed a Chariot and might have died. Also, he was poor in health with a broken bone. It is hard to tell what led to this death. The mummy was damaged in handling.

The obstacle
There were wars between Nubia and Egypt when he ruled.

He Is Famous because...
He died at age 19 which was so young. When they found him, many believed that they were no more mummies to find. Also, he was never disturbed for three thousand years.
