How did King Tut [Tut-Ankh-Amen] die?
King Tut was a very brave man. His father, the Pharaoh Akhenaton, caused many problems in Egypt, and was forced to escape to Sinai with his followers. King Tut ascended to the throne while very young, and he was faced with a divided kingdom between Akhenaton and his followers on one side, and the Egyptian majority on the other. King Tut wanted to reconcile the differences. He went to talk to his father’s followers in Sinai. The priests of his father’s religion took advantage of this brave Tut. They caught him, and he was killed by the high priest. We should never forget this brave young man.
