Thats because that's really Alexander the great and nobody has figured it out yet. Not joking. That's why there's an iron dagger and 9 layers of gold and also why the incision was on the side, something rhey did when mummifying mummies 600 years after tuts time. It's also why rhe death was sudden. And he isn't a child, alexander was 5'0 tall. And thats also why when they did a DNA test , it showed northern European ancestry. They say he walked with a limp? Alexander was stabbed in the thigh. Also was struck in the head during one of his battles.

This is where I stopped watching. Iron from meteors was easier to obtain - why mine for it when it's sitting on the surface.

I love watching archeology watched it for years never gets old.

I think what surprises me the most is that there are reliefs of Tutankhamun portrayed as a warrior king when the reality is he was so physically crippled he couldn't have walked without a cane so it's highly unlikely he would have been able to stand in a chariot or go to battle the way other Pharaohs did.

He actually loved racing his Chariots they think that is how he probably died from a chariot accident . He had a clubbed foot probably due to genetic mutations because his mother and father were full siblings. Back in those days it wasn’t unusual for siblings to marry they didn’t know the implications of that.

Such splendid treasures for just a so-so pharaoh. Just imagine what had been laid with the great ones like Ramses II. Such a shame most tombs had been looted.

Harold Carter's greatest contribution archeology isn't the finding of the tomb of Tut. Rather it is his serious and meticulous attention to detail and respect for his craft. In the time before Carter, many so called archeologists were nothing more than grave robbers looking for treasure. The care the current generation of archeologists take to preserve and learn has a lot to do with Carter's example.

We feel honored to have seen the Tut exhibition twice in San Francisco when it was traveling. The second time we took our kids. I don't think it made much of an impression on them as they were pretty young. but I felt a duty to at least expose them to it. I bought the catalog which I still have. It is very exciting to see the new research and especially the dagger found on Tut's body. The new technolgy is enabling so much new research. Thank you.

i strongly doubt he was some warrior king. id bet he was just depicted this way because thats how he wanted his people to see him (or the objects didnt belong to him which is a pre-existing theory). theres stronger evidence that he had severe birth defects and that he was a fairly insignificant pharoah and died unexpectedly quite young

Arguing that properly made armour and and scenes of battle in the tomb means he was a powerful battle hardened warrior is hugely flawed, indeed spurious. Of course the armour would be top knotch and the scenes would portray conquest. The priests would not send Tut into eternity with just ceremonial useless armour. Its all part of the spin of ritual burial, and not documenting actual events. This doco may as well have been made by Erich von Daniken and is saying "it is true because we think it is".

Excellent NG analysis. Changes my whole perception of TuT. The new information proves to me, that he was leading his army into the fight, the original way , pharoes were appointed to leading the Egyptian people. Rameses is portrayed as the military leader, in the Cecil B DeMille movie, The Ten Commandments. Great job on this documentary.

I find all of this very intriguing. I see why the "roaring twenties" was hailing Egypt related items, like jewelry, art, and more. Since the Tutankhamun tomb was opened, it has mind-boggling things coming forth, even to this day!!

Than you for the full episode. ❤

His African features are beautiful and timeless!

King Tut has made a mark on the world millennia after his death in ways he could never have envisioned! Do you think he would be pleased and/or amazed at how many people across the world have been studying his life and death? Even though he was king and ruler of Egypt, it seems it would be pretty amazing to think that one would have such an impact on the world nearly four thousand years after one's death!

I remember that iconic Nat Geo cover of King Tut's golden mask as a kid growing up in 80s Alabama.

These documentaries should explain the meaning of Tut's name. It means Image Of The Living God Amun (Amen). It's pronounced Tut-Ankh-Amun. The way they always pronounce it makes King Tut sound like a comedy duo: Toot & Common.✌️😎

How did the Egyptians obtain horses and train them? Did they ever ride them as well as chariot teams? What did they feed them?

Truly fascinating information, but the deliverance - and especially the background music - is way too dramatic for my taste

They did not enter “his attic”, and remove these items. They removed from his grave.

Hey crazy thought but maybe give King Tut his favorite magic space dagger back?

As amazing as this alll is, it’s just a little sad that someone had what was supposed to be their final resting place disturbed.

The ancient Egyptians were so developed it's insane!!

We saw many GOLD items displayed in EXPO 67 in Montreal CANADA- great to have shared with visitors- to see what Howard Carter first saw, AMAZING to see before the 6 day war,

I consider myself a very lucky person to see the mask ..i thank my father bless his soul .

A expectativa de vida era baixa, então as pessoas, incluindo Reis, tinham que atuar como adultos desde cedo. Então não espanta o faraó em questão ter sido um guerreiro jovem. Por outro lado, o fato de ter sido encontrada uma armadura e armas, ainda que com sinais de uso, não significa que foram usadas por aquele faraó. Podem ter sido colocadas lá como parte de um costume. A verdade é que tudo são conjecturas.

Amazing

Just imagine if king tut could see these people 3-D scanning his chariot with that shiny Blinky thing with all the information going to this square box with the screen that we call a computer it would just blow his mind

It's amazing seeing how the Egyptian Pharaohs lived. It isn't really important to see him as warrior Pharaoh since we can only guess. They can tell many things about him. We know the infants were his because of the DNA. I just don’t think we should make statements we can't prove. Then there is the facts that his tomb was filled with things that belonged to other individuals. His Death Mask was made to fit because it seems his wasn't ready. I just like knowing what's real and not assumed. You sound a lot like the Former Minister of Tourism and Antiquities of Egypt Dr.Zahi Hawass.

I don't know why you keep saying he was "hungry for power " . When you already stated he was being challenged on 3 separate borders.

Sure is a lot of speculation towards the end of this. Sounds like somebody had their mind made up and they started looking for things to fit their scenario
