Tutankhamun
Tutankhamun (c. 1341–1323 BCE) came to the throne as a child of about nine and died at approximately eighteen. His historical significance during his brief reign was modest — he reversed his father Akhenaten's religious revolution and restored the Amun cult — but he became the most famous pharaoh in history after Howard Carter's 1922 discovery of his nearly intact tomb in the Valley of the Kings, revealing the extraordinary wealth of New Kingdom royal burials.
