  1. Tutankhamen By Emily Goulet May 2009 Highland Park Elem.

  2. King Tut King Tut or Tutankhamen was given the crown of pharaoh or king of Egypt when he was only nine years old. We are not for sure but from what we know his mother is Kiya and father is Alhenaten. As I said we don’t know for sure. We also think he had two children, both females. (their names are unknown) He oddly died at the age of 17 but nobody has figured out how he died.

  3. This is what scientists think King Tut looked like.

  4. Howard Carter Howard Carter was born on May 9, 1874 in Kensington, London. He is noted as the primary discoverer of Tutankhamen's tomb. He started studying ancient Egypt when he was 17 years old.

  5. History of the First Excavation In 1922 a team of British archaeologists led by Howard Carter excavated the tomb of Tutankhamen. They found many beautiful artifacts. Some of them are alabaster jars of Tut’s organs, mask of King Tutankhamen, King Tut’s tomb, King Tut’s guard, and Ancient Egyptian senet, which is and ancient Egyptian game.) and much, much, more.

  6. History of Second Excavation In 2007 a team of Egyptian archaeologists decides to check to see if Howard Carter and his crew missed anything in Tut’s tomb. The excavation was led by Zahi Hawass. They found eight baskets of 3,000 year old doum fruit. Carter had missed a couple of things.
