Theories Of King Tut's Death

248 Words1 Page

King Tut died at a very young age and was buried in an expensive tomb. My theory about how Tut died is Aye and Horemheb were going to team up to kill Tut so they pushed him off the pyramid and he died instantly then Ankhesnamen figured out what they did and wrote a letter to the Hittites and then Horemheb and Aye figured it out and killed Ankhesnamen never to be seen then they ruled Egypt and Horemheb wanted to rule alone and killed Aye and Horemheb ruled Egypt. Aye and Horemheb wanted to kill Tut.They wanted to go and figure out a plane so they figured one out and were figuring out when to kill him.The right time to kill Tut was when he was going on the pyramid.Then seeing him on the pyramid they pushed him to his tragic death.

    Tuthmosis II and Hatshepsut had a daughter together named Neferure. Hatshepsut’s father died when she was very young, probably around 15 years old. Tuthmosis II took over, but only ruled for about three or four years, when he died from what is believed to be a skin disease. After his death, Tuthmosis the III, Hatshepsut’s stepson, was still too young to rule, which led to her ruling as Queen’s Regent. Her charismatic personality and group of followers led to her becoming pharaoh about seven years into Tuthmosis III’s rule.

    130 Words  | 1 Pages

    Horemheb assassinated King Tut. As the writer of Mysteries of Egypt observed, Horemheb was a man of low birth, and was later on appointed to General under Tut’s father, Akhenaten.

The more significant the loss the lengthier the grieving process lasts. Epictetus believes that our feelings are expressions of what seems right to us based upon our opinions and values. If we reevaluate our judgments or beliefs, then our feelings will be corrected as well. If we cannot control

  • Significance of Pericles' Death

    1280 Words  | 3 Pages

    The death of Pericles was a significant event in the course of the Peloponnesian War; however, even without Pericles' leadership the Athenian Assembly had countless opportunities to prevent their loss and chose not to take them. The fickleness and inefficiency of democracy ('the mob') allowed the Athenians to be easily influenced and therefore electing populists such as Cleon, Lysicles and Hyperbolus into dominant leadership roles. Election, via democratic means, of such populists, meant that the Athenians would take a much more aggressive approach to the war and therefore abandon the policies that Pericles had previously established. So in turn, democracy the institution for which the Athenians fought tirelessly to protect, rather than the death of Pericles, ironically became the dominant factor influencing the final outcome of this Ancient Greek civil war.

Hungry soldiers were terrorizing the community, while tomb robbers were raiding the pyramids for resources that were very much needed. They had buried their pharaohs with food, goods and jewelry, all of which were needed to keep the civilization in tact. They had built too many pyramids, and there were setbacks in Asia which corrupted trade. People did not understand why the pharaohs could not fix the problems that were going on. They viewed them as gods and lost trust and faith. Egypt fell apart as these things culminated with loss of belief in the pharaohs.
