Fact #3 Religion
Akhenaten(ruled Egypt from 1353 B.C. to
1335 B.C. which is the New Kingdom)
had made Aten the main god of Egypt.
He wanted the Egyptians to stop
believing in Amun the sun god and other
traditional gods. But many Egyptians and
itĘźs powerful priests rejected the belief of
Aten. After four years since he became
king, King Tutankhaten(meaning: the
living image of Aten or the life of Aten is
pleasing.) changed his name to
Tutankhamun and rehabilitated EgyptĘźs
old religion.

Fact #4 How did King Tut die?
 King TutĘźs cause of death is natural causes, nothing like
 being murdered. The cause of his death is that he died of
 gangrene, which was caused by a broken leg. It was
 nothing life-threatening when he was wounded, but because
 it left an open wound, it could have been dangerously
 infected. Since King Tut liked to hunt, it couldĘźve happened
 when he was hunting. Another cause with the broken leg is
 that he had malaria. Before this info, King Tut was believed
 to have been killed by a blow to the back of the head. But
 because of recent medical imaging, we know that is not
 true. The hole at the head is thought to be made from the
 embalming process.

Six Characteristics of Civilization
 A system of government that directs and controls some actions
 of the members of the society.
 King Tut was part of a system of government because he was king. He had a vizier
 named Ay who helped him rule Egypt. He is believed to be related to Akhenaten in
 some way which means he was born in a royal line. He restored Egypt’s old religion
 which means he took control of the religion in Egypt too.

 A religious system, which might include priests and temples.
 King Tut restored Egypt’s original religion, which was worshipping Amun and other
 gods. Before that, Akhenaten declared that all of Egypt must worship Aten. Of-
 course, the people of Egypt denied and among those people were powerful priests.
 King Tut’s original name was a name worshipping Aten, but he changed it to
 Tutankhamun.

King Tut and today?

Being King is kind of like being president. They both lead their country.
 Both need to prevent wars and keep the citizens in order. They also
 manage trade with other countries and make sure the country grows
                      enough food for the people.



  Apart from that, I don’t think King Tut really relates to the society...
So...King Tut...
     Is important to history because...(what I
     think)
1.   Historians learned more about the Egyptians because of the things in
     his tomb.

2.   Historians learned more about the royal line he was born in.

3.   Because of scanning the mummy of King Tut, they could learn a little bit
     more about the embalming process that took place after a pharaoh
     died.

But really, he is only famous because
                        of his tomb...

  • 45. Fact #4 How did King Tut die? King TutĘźs cause of death is natural causes, nothing like being murdered. The cause of his death is that he died of gangrene, which was caused by a broken leg. It was nothing life-threatening when he was wounded, but because it left an open wound, it could have been dangerously infected. Since King Tut liked to hunt, it couldĘźve happened when he was hunting. Another cause with the broken leg is that he had malaria. Before this info, King Tut was believed to have been killed by a blow to the back of the head. But because of recent medical imaging, we know that is not true. The hole at the head is thought to be made from the embalming process.
