Book Description
A respected Egyptologist, the author of Tutankhamen and the Tomb that Changed the World, examines the compelling mystery behind the death of King Tutankhamen. Today, Tutankhamen is the most famous of the ancient Egyptian pharaohs. After his death at the age of nineteen, “King Tut” was forgotten from history, until the discovery of his tomb in 1922 propelled him to worldwide fame. But the circumstances of his death remain shrouded in mystery.... X-rays of Tutankhamen’s skull suggest a violent death. Was it accident or murder? Several members of his family died around the same time—was is coincidence? Why did Tutankhamen’s widow send desperate messages to the Hittite king, requesting marriage to one of his sons? And who murdered the Hittite price on his journey to Egypt? Who ordered the removal of Tutankhamen’s name from all monuments and temples, and thus from Egyptian history? This fascinating, painstakingly researched book is the first to explore in depth the questionable circumstances of Tutankhamen’s demise—and to present a shocking scenario of betrayal, ambition, and murder. In The Murder of Tutankhamen, renowned Egyptologist Bob Brier reveals an exciting journey into ancient history—and a 3,000 year-old mystery that still compels us today. “Brier's 3,000-year-old mystery steadily draws the reader into the curious and exotic world of Egyptology.”—The New York Times INCLUDES 16 PAGES OF PHOTOS

Book Description
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 Ineni, the well-regarded royal architect, supervised the excavations of a secret burial chamber for Tuthmosis I. The prisoners had spent five years in a remote valley excavating the tomb, and by day they had endured withering summer heat and surprisingly frigid blasts of desert cold. At night they had slept under a sky shot through with stars. #2 Amenhotep the Magnificent was a fat old pharaoh who was no longer fit to rule Egypt. He loved Thebes, his northern capital, more than Memphis, his southern capital. #3 The future of Egypt is at stake. You must take action. The pharaoh and his wife, Tiye, were arguing about the future of Egypt and the boy who would be co-regent. The pharaoh was opium-addicted, and the pain was unbearable. He needed more wine and Resi’s bosom to suck on. #4 Carter was a curious boy, and he loved exploring the library at Didlington Hall. He was allowed to do so by his father, who was painting a new commission for Lord Amherst. The library was the joy of Lord Amherst’s life.
