Drawings in the youngest pharaoh tomb in Egypt reveal concussion

The discovery on the wall inside the Egyptian pharaoh's tomb Tutankhamun reveals the harsh reality of the ancient Egyptian power competition.

Pharaoh Tutankhamun died young and ended the reign of his family.

According to Express, Tutankhamun was the last Pharaoh to reign over Egypt during the 18th dynasty of the New Kingdom. Tutankhamun was given the throne at the age of 9 and died 10 years later.

The death of this young Pharaoh is still a mystery. Archaeologists found Tutankhamun hurriedly buried . Pharaoh's legacy was destroyed shortly thereafter, leading to rumors that Tutankhamun was murdered.

In 1922, English archaeologist Howard Carter found the tomb of Pharaoh Tutankhamun in the Valley of the Kings. Nearly 100 years later, researchers are still analyzing specimens to find out why the young Pharaoh was buried quickly.

Historian Dan Snow explains inside the Pharaoh Tutankhamun burial room.

The famous historian Dan Snow revealed some evidence on Channel 5. " Right inside the room where Pharaoh Tutankhamun rested, people saw the power struggle ," Dan said. 'Catacombs are not perfect, there are many errors. Perhaps the workers do not have much time. There was a crack in the stone coffin of Pharaoh and they temporarily pasted it. '

But why is Pharaoh Tutankhamun buried in such a hurry? Dan said the evidence lies in the carvings on the wall.

The murals are usually the son or heir of the recently deceased Pharaoh.'But Tutankhamun died young, so who appeared in the pictures?' Dan asks.

Dan said that Prime Minister Ay had carved a picture of himself mummifying Pharaoh's body on the wall so that the royal road could be taken.

'The answer is also in the room. That is the name of the Prime Minister Ay engraved on the wall , ' Dan said. 'By having him sketch out the scene where he performed the Pharaoh mummification ceremony, Ay showed his ambition to take power.'

'At that time, there were many other forces who wanted to compete for the throne, so the funeral took place in a hurry so that the Prime Minister Ay could ascend the throne , ' Dan said.

After the death of Pharaoh Tutankhamun, Prime Minister Ay married the king's widow and became the next Pharaoh, ending the Thutmoses royal lineage. Ay ruled Egypt for about 6 years, settled in Thebes and was succeeded by her son-in-law, General Horemheb.
