Chapter 31: Eheathon's Disregard for Asian Territory

readx;? It can be said that in the middle and late reign of Ekhatun, Queen Nefertiti was the real pharaoh and was loved by her subjects, while Ekhatun was reviled by the people for her cruel persecution of Amun's followers. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info

In the year, Nefertiti, the queen of Eheatun, changed her name to Smunkara and appointed herself as pharaoh with the assistance of the ministers led by Ayi, the eleventh pharaoh of the Eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt. At this time, two governments emerged, centered on Thebes and Ekhtatun, respectively.

Ekhtatun died of the plague. Egypt returned to Thebes.

During his reign, he still worshipped the god Atun, and although the followers of Amun were no longer persecuted, their situation did not improve further.

Tutankhamun, reigned: years. Formerly known as Tutankhamun.

Tutankhamun was not the most accomplished pharaoh in ancient Egyptian history.

The reason Tutankhamun is so well-known to modern people is that his tomb was never stolen for three thousand years. British archaeologist Howard Carter shocked the Western world by discovering Tutankhamun's tomb in 1922 in the Valley of the Kings near the historic Egyptian city of Luxor.

His tomb was engraved with mysterious incantations, and coincidentally, several of the first people to enter the tomb died early for various reasons, which was hyped up by the media of the time as the "curse of the pharaohs", making Tutankhamun's name even more well-known in the West.

After the excavation of Tutankhamun's grave, the life and cause of his death have been the focus of debate in archaeological research, but the conclusion is still inconclusive. Today, most of Tutankhamun's funerary goods are on display in the Cairo Museum in Egypt. But the discovery of his tomb represents the pinnacle of Egyptian archaeology, and he is the most famous pharaoh in Egypt today.

Tutankhamun's tomb was never stolen because the mausoleum he built was not repaired at the time of his death, so Tutankhamun was buried in the tomb of his grandmother Tie, which is the only one in Egyptian history that has not been excavated because of its remote location.

Tutankhamun's sarcophagus and funerary goods were originally intended for his grandmother, Tiyi. Because no one expected him to die so early, it was too late to prepare for him at the moment, so he had to take someone else's for him first.

The whole tomb consists of an antechamber, a burial chamber, an ear chamber and a storehouse. Except outside the tomb, all the places are filled with furniture, utensils, boxes, and other utensils, including the treasure trove of the tomb owner. Each artifact in the tomb is decorated with gold, silver, beads and jade. Two life-size ebony-gilded statues were also found in the burial chamber, which scholars believe to be the image of Tutankhamun. These two statues are vivid and lifelike, reflecting the skill and imagination of ancient artists. During the 8 years of excavation, more than 2,000 cultural relics were found in the tomb, and the tomb is very rich in rare treasures.

Tutankhamun's famous golden mask weighs about 10.23 kilograms. Tutankhamun's mummy is protected by three humanoid coffins and three outer contours, each of which is the size of the other snapping into the other, with a delicate craftsmanship. The innermost humanoid coffin is made of 22k gold and weighs 110.9 kilograms, which is about $1.5 million at the current market price. The outermost level is large enough to be a garage for a medium-sized car. Tutankhamun's grave contains a small personal first-aid kit, which contains some first-aid medicine, bandages and slings similar to those used in case of broken bones. Carter estimated that Tutankhamun's tomb contained about 350 liters of precious oil, mostly stored in stone bottles. Tutankhamun was not alone, and he was accompanied by two aborted baby girls in his grave, a mummy called the "Old Woman" and the other the "Young Lady".

Tutankhamun was a fashionable man with a passion for fashion. A large collection of clothing found in his grave, and a wooden model made of his size next to the clothing. In addition, the scarf used by Tutankhamun for baptism was also found, which was of good material and finely handmade. Tutankhamun had about 100 pairs of shoes, made of leather, made of wood, made of wicker, and even made of gold.

There are about 30 brands of wine in Tutankhamun's tomb, one of which is "Tutankhamun Wine", which is also marked with the vintage, grape origin and manufacturer. There are 30 pull-back sticks in Tutankhamun's tomb. In ancient times, the pull back rod was used for hunting. In addition to the golden coffin and the golden mask, the most frequently mentioned items are the throne in which the Empress anointed the body of the King, two life-size wooden sentinels, and alabaster chests. Among them, the alabaster box is the most intriguing, 4 alabaster jars, the lid is Tutankhamun's head, what is inside?

Carter spent about five years excavating Tutankhamun's grave, eight years cleaning him up, and nearly a decade cataloguing some 5,000 or so funerary goods found in the grave. However, in his lifetime, he never printed the results of these astonishing discoveries and collations.

There has always been a rumor about Tutankhamun's background: Tutankhamun was not from the royal family, but only because of his handsomeness was recruited as a colt by the daughter of the former pharaoh Eheatun, and that Tutankhamun inherited the throne at the age of 30 when Arkarnaten died. However, this statement has not been accepted by researchers.

In the eyes of the ancient Egyptians, the blood of the sun god was infused into the royal blood through Horus, and the priests of Egypt were convinced that it was not permissible for anyone to dilute the blood of the pharaoh by marriage outside the royal family. Therefore, in the ancient Egyptian dynasties, blood marriage was always followed. At the same time, in order to have as many children as possible, in the ancient Egyptian royal family, it was not uncommon for brothers and sisters to marry or even father and daughter.

According to research, this incestuous form of marriage continued for at least two and a half centuries in the Theban family of the Eighteenth Dynasty. Moreover, when Tutankhamun ascended the throne, he was only 9 years old, and his queen was only 8 years old at that time. It also seems unreasonable to say that an 8-year-old child is "in love" with his husband. All this suggests that Tutankhamun must be a member of the royal family. So, what is Tutankhamun's background? There are two guesses:

For one, he was not the son of the former pharaoh Ehatun, but his nephew. Since Nefertiti, the queen of the former pharaoh Ehatun, gave birth to only six daughters but no sons, it has been speculated that she betrothed her daughter to Pharaoh Ehatun's nephew, Tutankhamun.
