  1. Tutankamun died of a massive blood infection that came from an extremely badly broken leg;how his leg was so injured remains a mystery...was it an accident or foul play.

    He was married to the daughter of Nefertiti and his half-brother,the "Heretic Pharoah" Akenaten,Ankhesenamun,born Ankhespaaten. As he was Egyptian his sin was brown,like today's Egyptians and Arabs.

    Two good websites for you are Zawi Hawass, the head of Egyptian antiquties "The Plateau."

  2. Nebkheperure Tutankhamun (1341 BC – 1323 BC) was a Pharaoh of the Eighteenth dynasty during the period of Egyptian history known as the New Kingdom. His original name, Tutankhaten, meant "Living Image of Aten", while Tutankhamun meant "Living Image of Amun". He was likely the eighteenth dynasty king 'Rathotis', who according to Manetho, an ancient historian, had reigned for nine years.

    Tutankhamun was only 8 years old when he became pharaoh. He died 11 years later, at age 19.

    The 2005 conclusion by a team of Egyptian scientists, based on the CT scan findings, confirmed that Tutankhamun died of gangrene after breaking his leg. After consultations with Italian and Swiss experts, the Egyptian scientists found that the fracture in Tutankhamun's left leg most likely occurred only days before his death, which had then become gangrenous and led directly to his death. Further investigation of the fracture led to the conclusion that it was severe, most likely caused by a fall from some height—possibly a chariot riding accident due to the absence of pelvis injuries—and may have been fatal within hours.

    At the age of nine, Tut married his half-sister, Ankhesanamum. She was approximately thirteen years old when she married Tutankhamun. They had two girl children  born premature and died.

    Since King Tut was Egyptian, his colour skin tone was obviously a tanned colour, mostly like a shade of brown.

  3. He died of head trauma, he married his half sister, his skin color was most likely brown to light brown( he was egyptian).Now keep in mind some eyyptians are white, not like brittany spears white, but still white.

  4. Why did you not ask: Egyptians, what is the best info about Tut? Are you expecting only the americans?

  5. Because his mummy was mishandled when it was first discovered nobody knows for sure how he died. The most recent thing I read said that he probably broke his leg and died from infection a few days later. Other than that the other answers are correct.

  6. King tut died at the age of approx 19 years old of a head injury and because of this the egyptologist suggest that it was possible murder.

    His wife was called Ankhesenpaaten

    He was egyptian and so he will be probably the same colour (Dark skinned dark hair)

    His real name was Tutankhaten he adopted his other name when king

    He is known to have had 2 still born children

    Although he was young when he was King,\he had advisers to rule

    Hope this little bit of info helps you
