King Tutankhamun Reconstructed

Tut became a pharaoh at 9 years old and at 19 he died because of malaria. However, scans also showed that the boy had a fractured leg and a lot of body deformities because of the tradition of inbreeding, to keep the royal bloodline pure. Murals and representations show Tut performing many tasks while sitting down – even archery, which can only confirm that he was a frail boy, with hips improperly formed and other afflictions.
