Born as "Tutankhaten, King Tut is remembered for many reasons.
During his reign as Pharaoh he made the difficult decision to
publically disagree with his father and to undo many of the changes
that Amenhotep IV had made during his rule (including making Amarna
the capital city). Tutankhaten would also try to reestablish the
friendships with surrounding nations that his father had ignored
and to start a large family of his own so that his ideas could
continue to guide the country long after he had died. But the life
of Tutankhaten was very complicated. It seems that as a young king
he was used by the people around him, specifically some very
powerful advisors who took advantage of the fact that he was just a
child. They probably convinced the king to do the things that they
themselves wanted him to do. You may knowKing Tut's name, but
perhaps you've wondered, "What'ssogreatabout him?" This book (part
of the "What'sSoGreatAbout...") series, gives kids insight into
life, times and career ofKing Tut.
