Scientists Reveal the Real Face of King Tut. When British archaeologist Howard Carter discovered the tomb of King Tutankhamun in 1922, he proclaimed the âwonderful thingsâ he could see. And in an instant, the boy kingâwith his golden cavern, gilded mask, and untimely deathâcaptured the worldâs imagination.
His wide spread fame is due to the discovery of his basically untouched tomb in the Valley of the Kings in 1922 by British archaeologist Howard Carter. Even so, there are some interesting aspects about the boy king that people are not generally aware of. Tut ruled from 1336 BC to 1327 BC. Through examination of his remains he is thought to have been around the age of 17 when he died, but he gained the throne of pharaoh at about the age of 8 or 9. It is commonly thought that he was the sun of Akhenaten.
