Re-examining the death of King Tut

February 26, 2010 on 2:16 pm | By admin | In Reference and Education | Comments Off

The BBC recently reported that there may have been another factor into the death of King Tut. It reports that it might not have been murder at all, but the boy king may have died of malaria, as well as having a club foot and curvature of the spine. I find these reports to be so interesting, especially so many years on – who knew that one day we’d be able to find out about someone who lived thousands of years ago? It’s fascinating what modern technology can do, especially when the mummy wasn’t very well preserved to begin with.
