This "mystery" has already been solved. His tomb was constructed hastily because, not only did he die YEARS before any other average Pharaoh, it was sudden and unexpected, as well. Meaning; they had from the time of his death until the standard mourning period of 70 days, (on average) ended and the, "opening of the mouth ceremony," took place just prior to sealing the tomb. That means, the new King, who had only taken the position of Pharaoh before the age of 10, even though he was already the ruling Pharaoh by the time of his death, probably had another, more elaborate, tomb being constructed somewhere else in the Valley of the Kings that would typically take decades to complete. It could have even been the tomb in which he was buried, and that's just all they had time to excavate by that point in his life, it's actually less clear. Either way, having only a few years to excavate, construct, carve, and decorate his tomb by the time I his death meant that he would have to have been buried within a very hastily completed tomb. It is hypothesized that the reason the reliefs carved into the four interior walls of his burial chamber are all of varying styles is because four teams of artists had a total of 70 days to finish each of their respective walls. What killed him is still a mystery. It could have been murder or just an accident, but had he lived longer than his 20-ish years, like most other Pharaohs, he would have undoubtedly been buried in a far more extensive and elaborate tomb. Luckily for us, (and him, really,) it's because his tomb was so small and seemingly insignificant that it managed to escape Millennia of tomb robbers, so that we, here in contemporary times, would be able to discover it untouched and intact. His premature death and hasty burial is actually the main reason for his "gift" to the modern world. And, that's a profound irony that's worth him becoming the most famous and well-known Egyptian Pharaoh in history. 👍

[@jacobburton7613]

Why was it completed quickly? Maybe because he died at an early age, unexpectedly, the workers didn’t have 30+ years to work on this like the older pharaohs. Because of this, the tomb had to be rushed for his burial, because without the ceremony Egyptians believed the Sun would not rise again.

[@Alex-ix6oi]

Thats what i suspected.

[@jordanhollahan]

It is also speculated that this was never meant to be his tomb at all. His successor Ay was his overseer during his 9 year reign and basically ran the country himself. His tomb is much more extravagant than that of Tut's and because of this, it is speculated that the tomb of Ay was actually meant for Tut.

[@kpopfanbts9204]

It would also back up why his famous death mask was never really his. It is dead that researchers found out that because he died at a early age they took the death mask from another person and placed it on to the head peice for him. It is also known that very recently they found another chamber further along near to his burial chamber filled with other things associated with king tut because they could not get the tomb ready in time for his belongings so they used a already existing one close by. I think I got that all right. I'm not a exbert and I'm only in high school 🤣

King Tut was filled with many issues due to inbreeding within the family. He died unexpectedly and given that the process of burial only gave about 90 days they had to complete it all. It takes over 30 years for a whole tomb to be completed. So these skilled craftsmen had to do 30 years of work in less than 90 days.

See I thought the same thing. They did tombs for each reigning king as the expectant life they have. King tut died so suddenly I would think they barley had enough time to get the paintings up before he was laid to rest. Plus he was a child, even for those times, so maybe they made it simple so he would get to the underworld much easier then a king who had been around for much longer.

He died young and unexpectedly. Most pharoahs spent years designing their tombs. He was buried in a hurry and he was unimportant in comparison to his predecessors. His tomb was also very luckily not looted like the other burial sites in the valley of the dead, leaving a low budget, but clear picture of what a full on burial would have looked like. That's why he is so important, his tomb wasn't impressive and neither was his life but it was untouched by looters.

[@shanananna1723]

When we studied ancient Egyptian history back in Post-WW II America, Tut was discussed--back then--as a minor Pharoah who died before his real tomb (one that would probably have been pillaged over the centuries) could be completed, so he was buried in what was a minor tomb, meant for a lesser man than a Pharoah. The fact that he was buried with such immense wealth--even as a very young man--was taught to us as a "teaser"--imagine the wealth that the greater Pharoahs would have taken to their tombs, if only those tombs hadn't been robbed of their treasures before exploration of them by Egyptologists began in earnest.

Also they wouldn't have been able to give him a fully gold sarcophagus cause the gold was controlled by the king/queen and if the next in line is to young to take the thrown the gold is provided through their version of the court.

According to some theories, tutankhamuns tomb was so grand because he reverted the official state religion back to being centered on amun-ra. His father Akhenaten had previously changed the religion of Egypt to be solely centered on Aten which was very unpopular at the time. The fact that he also changed his name from tutankhaten to tutankhamun further supports this idea.

[@varyolla435]

Tutankhamen's tomb was not grand. In fact it was likely not even his intended tomb. All of the signs point to someone else's tomb being rapidly converted for use to accommodate his death which appears to have been a result of some accident. Meanwhile after he died his predecessor - Ay - who was not even of royal blood created for himself one of the nicer tombs in the Valley. That tomb might have originally been Tut's. Egyptian pharaohs had a bad habit of appropriating from their predecessors to take credit for themselves. After Ay the pharaoh Horemheb performed damnatio memoriae on Tutankhamen to "erase" him. Later Ramses II further desecrated the temples of Tutankhamen and his father Akhenaton. Ramses II was bad about that. He did the same to his father Seti I.

[@gameglitcher7]

@@varyolla435 I didn't mean to say tomb, my mistake, I really meant to say his solid gold sarcaphogus

[@varyolla435]

No biggie. Actually the fact that he was erased by his successors is what saved him. As a relatively minor pharaoh who was removed from the roles as it were = there was then little evidence to point to his existence. Had it been otherwise his tomb like most royal tombs would have been plundered long ago. Actually there was evidence of the tomb being broken into. A small area of the plaster wall separating the sarcophagus room from the treasury room was noted by Carter to have been repaired. So someone broke - probably soon after burial - in but was apparently caught and the tomb was resealed. That or else a later pharaoh appropriated some of his wealth.

[@ivy-reybunniesco6829]

Tutankhamen was the son of Ankhnaton the pharaoh that created Armana and husband to Nefertiti. Many Egyptians (political and non political ) believed after the Armana episode when Tutankhamen was returned to Thebes with his half sister wife Ankesanamen to be crowned king he had to be taught all the old religion that his father had replaced with the one god religion to honour the Aten. It is believed that his advisor murdered him in order to become king himself, but Tutankhamens widow refuses to marry him, she plead to a Nubian king to allow her to marry one of his sons so she didn’t have to marry the murdering advisor. The king sent to sons both of whom were murdered. Ankesanamens body/tomb has never been found. She and tuts names were removed from all temples and the Egyptians removed his name from the list of pharaohs. His name should be in between the name of his father Ankhnaton and the name of the advisor who then became pharaoh, King Iye. All in all Tutankhamens tomb was prepared in a fast way due to his sudden murder and attempt to make him irrelevant in history after the distress and disaster that his father had caused

[@edvega4291]

[@sohomsengupta8914]

The splendour and magnificence of the treasures, coffins and sarcophagus found in King Tut's tomb will leave you completely awestruck. The gold work and etching is simply breath taking. But as our guide in Egypt told us...that if a minor Pharaoh like Tut who died young, was unimportant and lived at a time when Egypt was past her golden age could have a coffin and sarcophagus so grand then imagine what truly grand treasures the tombs of the great pharaohs like Ramses II would hold. It simply blows ones mind. The sad part is all of those tombs were looted or stripped over centuries by raiders and grave robbers unlike King Tut's which managed to remain hidden and was discovered completely untouched. Consequently making him the most famous historical discovery of mankind.

Maybe he died in an unexpected sooner death, and to my understanding on this video, it said that after death and once it starts to become night, he has to have the instructions on the walls in order to achieve immortality, and it has to happen before sunrise. So maybe the tomb was being prepared and died sooner than expected so it had to be rushed. Even so to me I feel like in order to achieve immortality, it doesn't has to mean you have to be alive in this world in flesh, but immortality as being forever remembered, in other words living in history, which as you can see he was able to accomplish.

The biggest difference is the fact the there is mold on the walls indicating that the tomb was sealed prior to the paint drying, That has never been seen anywhere else to date. It is now believed that the Tomb he was found in was originally for someone else probably the advisor who took the throne after his death. Apparently, the person the Kind had selected to take the throne after him was overseas on a military campaign and one of his advisors had him buried quickly so he could take the throne before King Tutankhamun's Chosen successor returned to Egypt. The advisors took the throne and is believed to have been buried in the tomb that originally had been started for King Tut prior to his death. That tomb was very large very ornate in detail and much more appropriate for a pharaoh. The irony is the Advisor is but a cliff note compared to King Tut the advisors tomb was pillaged by tomb robbers while king Tuts tomb was left preserved until its modern day discovery.

[@histguy101]

Well, only 1, out of 100+ pyramids. All pyramids have a tomb in them(under them), and most have funerary texts, and burial artifacts in these tombs, but the tombs may not have been ever intended to be used for actual burial. Many kings built numerous false tombs to keep their actual tombs hidden(It didn't work), so the pyramids may have been built to be more symbolic of the king's tomb, but unbenownst to the public, the king would be buried elsewhere. Pyramids always included a huge complex of temples, monuments, and other tombs surrounding them. People would come honor or worship the dead pharoah believing him to be entombed in or under the pyramid.

[@ahmedmady3064]

Alot of secret rooms are still unkown

[@LegandryRings]

My Sister however believes part of and her belief is that the whole tomb of supposed king TUT are store rooms and all anti chambers part of a main part of a larger Tomb yet to be discovered some were beyond what is discovered shown.

[@bethbartlett5692]

Kent Weeks - a genuine man. And although I don't feel the Great Pyramid was a tomb, I do feel they copied it later for tombs.

[@saswotlamichhane5862]

Mysterious!!!, but awesome!

[@Noid11111]

The real mystery is they were aliens

[@mysterylover9546]

I assume the tomb wasn’t original for him!!! But who was it for 🤷🏽‍♀️😮😳

[@varyolla435]

Some royal or high court official most likely. There are more than pharaohs buried in the Valley of the Kings or Queens for that matter. There were also a number of lesser tombs found there which were no where near as expansive or ornate as the royal ones. We see the same thing among the other necropolises by the way. The Giza complex contains large cemeteries for important court people as well as people such as work supervisors etc.. So the evidence points to Tut dying from some accident. As such his tomb was probably not ready and some other tomb was pressed into service to fit the timeframe as a pharaoh was buried within 60-70 days after death.

[@kerryn6714]

royal clark I’ve read some intriguing ideas that the tomb scandal was caused by a man named “Ay” who was a highly ranked Egyptian offical & one of Tutankhamen’s advisors. He also managed to swindle himself into being the next pharaoh. Egypt drama is fascinating!

[@richardgrace4500]

And I don't agree with archeology because all it is is legalized grave robbery... I mean Egypt wasnt known as Egypt while these kings and queens were alive so what right does Egypt have to say is ok to dig into the grave and take everything out and use it for financial game and too enrich their coffers...technically they are doing what every grave robber does , go into someone elses grave and take someone elses belongings for personal or financial game but somehow would be illegal if I did it to a grave but is ok if the Egyptian government says is ok because their might be something they want in there

[@dondebloisl3066]

Hello mom, stop doing those things that kids will hate

[@markpierce5892]

You do know European countries control alot of egytian antiquities.... This is why this is allowed and kinda favored .... Lol

[@Blackowl44]

Kemet not egpyt

[@histguy101]

So because you believe Ancient Egypt wasn't known as "Egypt," studying Egyptian history through archeology is wrong? Archeology is going on in every country around the world. It has become a science. And anyways, that's only true in the sense that "Egypt" is just what English speakers call it. What do you think modern Egyptians call it? Egypt? no. They call it Misr, or Misri(from Mizraim, the legendary founder of Egypt). What did ancient Egyptians call it, and where do we get the word "Egypt"? The Romans called it *Aegyptus*. It was a Roman Province for almost 700 years. "Aegyptus", of course, comes from the Greek *"Aegyptios"* (Αίγυπτος) which comes from the Mycenean Greek *"ai-ku-pi-ti-jo,"* which comes from the Egyptian *"Hwt-ku-ptah"*(House/Temple of the soul of Ptah) The ancient name of Memphis, which later came to be used of all Egypt, or rather, the Kingdom that ruled there. This name is believed to go all the way back to Narmer, and lasted through the dynastic periods.

[@Whenever426]

Richard Grace yeah, that’s why tut has cursed anyone to interrupt his rest or anyone to enter his tomb >:)

[@alymobarak5526]

You all welcome to Egypt anytime, and wait for another special parade cermoney of King's TUT by the end of the year and of opening the grand Egyptian museum too ♥ ,

[@greysky3058]

Fascinating.

[@Beansprout.2131]

I suppose the tomb's design had to be rushed because he died at a young age.

[@ridhikasharma9711]

Story tell about the.... Day of judgement

[@TheMoeP]

1:31 mmmkay 😂

[@incognitoburrito7458]

There was a time constraint because tut died unexpectedly at 19. Usually the pharaohs would die of old age, sickness, etc. so that gave them enough time to prepare the tomb.

[@briantran6738]

when i was a kid i say king tuts tomb

[@citybirds7408]

People still do, his real name is way too long

[@FalconMain3]

Brian Tran Alright

[@youtuber35608]

Me too

[@personwhosreal811]

Probably because they took years to do and he died as a child

[@esoteric2408]

At 5:43 reading right to left and down in columns starting two lines from the left says.... Osiris, foremost of the west, the great God. Then from the third line from the left reading left to right.... The good God (meaning King), Lord of the Two Lands, Lord of Appearances, Nebkheperure (Tutankhamun’s Throne Name), given Life forever and eternity. Left to right second line from the right.... The Royal Ka of the foremost of the Robing Room.

[@nataliemay415]

My theory is that he was only 18-19 years old and in the 18 odd years of building the tomb that's how far they got until he passed away unexpectedly. Most got 40+ years to build theirs.

[@kellyformalarie]

I’m doing a biography on king tut

[@dumitrulangham1721]

Kelly Formalarie 😱 good luck with that

[@syedismail111]

The British were the one known as grave robbers. They are busy excavating Egyptian's Kings tomb Therefore it is not wrong fir us to go to England and begin excavating their royal tombs. Is there a license issue for that purposes ?

[@shadowz3089]

I think, maybe you need to study more before saying anything. It just shows how ignorant you are.

[@adasp23]

That reincarnation story is amazing.

[@Greenliight]

If all of that actually happens when I die I will be blown away
