Theory of How King Tutankhamen DiedOne theory of how King Tutankhamen died at the tender age of 18 suggests that it was due to illness. According to Professor Albert Zink, the illness consisted of genetic deficiencies that may have been a direct result of his parents being siblings. This meant that his body was extremely weak and could not withstand the burdens of everyday life. In those days, it was norm to have unions between members of the same family in order to keep the bloodline going (Dovey, 2014). No one saw any issues with this notion especially since such medical knowledge hadn’t been discovered yet. It was said that “the chances of a newborn child who is the product of brother-sister relations suffering early death, a severe birth defect, or some mental deficiency is around 50 percent(Dovey, 2014). Moreover, Tutankhamen was diagnosed with Kohler’s disease, a rare bone disorder of the foot in children.  Scientists believe that at the time of his death, he was said to have malaria, a mosquito-borne disease caused by a parasite that if left untreated can result in death. Hence, Tutankhamen had many illnesses which could’ve single handedly or cohesively contributed to his death.
Another theory about Tutankhamen’s death is that he was murdered. According to the Egyptologist, Bob Brier, it was discovered that he suffered from broken fragments in his skull leading us to believe that he was killed by a blow to the head. The main suspect in his death was Aye, the king who succeeded him. It was said that at some point Tutankhamen no longer needed Aye’s assistance as he had in the past. This angered Aye and prompted him to think of a murder for hire plan in order to get rid of Tut and become the new King. The plot thickened after his death as Aye married Ankhensenpaaten, Tut’s wife. The union was an important step in taking over Tutankhamen’s reign, because marrying his wife meant that Aye would automatically become heir.

The first step to making a fortune is to get rid of the ruler. Tut was thought to be of the highest echelons of authority in history. But the king did not need a ruler, instead he was always forced to give up his own life just because he was afraid of his king. The reason was that he had been forced to spend so much time in prison before reaching his goal of becoming a king. After he finally managed to get his master into trouble, Tut became the king of Egypt. He became responsible for keeping peace between his brothers, whom he considered his equals. Aye and Aye were eventually divorced and Aye died of pneumonia on July 6, 1792. She was succeeded by her son, Nai, because of his love for the younger man.

Tutankhamen was an incredible monarch. It was evident that he did not have a good sense of order and discipline when he built the palace. The fact that this is so is a testament to Aye’s good sense and how she would take care of him. He could give no less than 500 men for a year, each one of whom was to pay for their lives when he died. It is important during such days of mourning that you remember the sacrifice of your beloved to raise up for you the young hero you loved.

My personal favourite is the great god Aye, who taught me the importance at all points of the game as one of the most influential rulers in ancient Egypt. I would still like the famous Aye sitting on my throne if I was in my position. It helped me make myself useful and I can’t thank her enough. He taught me that the best thing to do is try to make yourself useful to both the king and the people. I remember making him promise that he would never do anything for me. This led me to the first and foremost goal of all the kings of Ancient Egypt: creating a state. He had to fulfill his tasks with a feeling of peace and justice. However, when you go past all these shortcomings to achieve greatness, you will find that there was at least one person who became your great-great Grandma: the queen of the Egyptians. In his time and place, Aye became the Queen of the Egyptians and her son Dibai Baba was born in 1348. The queen was the very first Egyptian to be crowned Emperor and was a true and lasting monarch.

I cannot forget my mother, Princess Marduk, who was in charge of the palace. Her power extended from the palace to its interior and from it it fell till it gave way in 1523. Once the palace closed, I took responsibility for the whole palace and gave
