King Tut... King Tut... King Tut... WHO IS KING TUT?!?!?!?! That's what I was thinking when I first started doing research for this blog. Anyway King Tut or Tutankhamon was born in 1341 B.C. and died in 1323 B.C. He is son of Akhenaten and one of his wifes, that's probably who Tiger Woods got influenced by LOL, ok back on subject, Akhenaten died when King Tut was around 10 years old and took throne as Pharaoh, (only if we could be president that young) until he died at age 20 by a head injury more about that in a future post. King Tut came more known to the world in late 1922 when Howard Carter, wait a minute Howard is a weird name. Where were we? Oh ya we were talking about Howard Carter in 1922 when he found King Tut's tomb at The Valley of Kings which was so exciting because Tutankhaman's tomb was one of the only tombs that wasn't robbed by grave robber. Give me your gold/amulets/wealth mummy! NO! King Tut's Tomb wasn't robbed because he wasn't that rich with Amulets because he was only alive for about 20 years. Wasn't he too young to even be able to get that stuff anyway? That's a answer that can vary by what the Egyptian who is selling it to a certain age limit or a whole lot of money. You are probally wondering how to pronounce Tutankhaman so here it is Tut-ank-ham-on.
