Can I ask for some fun facts about King Tut

You may ask, but I never, ever do requests such as this, nor will I ever write any fun facts about King Tut. Here are some fun facts about King Tut as per your request-

Tutankhamun was a god-king of Ancient Egypt, but was denied a pyramid in death because that was just so 1500 years earlier.

He only lived to be a teenager, and was thus never allowed to buy alcohol or cigarettes, or to rent a car. His autobiography states this was always his greatest regret.

His tomb was one of the few not looted by grave robbers before it was discovered by the British explorers in 1922, who celebrated its pristine untouched state before looting it as grave robbers.

The curse of King Tut killed all who entered his tomb, insidiously causing their deaths of diverse and unrelated causes from between a few years and a few decades after the tomb was raided. Such was the curse's famous wording, "Death will come on wings taking 6-75 years to whosoever disturbs my tomb."

Tutankhamun's tomb was filled with amazing treasures, including gold masks, gold furniture, and a signed copy of Steve Martin's song about him on vinyl from when it was certified gold.

As scarabs were considered symbols of his divinity and cycle of rebirth, Tutankhamun is considered the first royal fan of The Beetles.

Tutankhamun was not his original name, he was born Tutankhaten, but deleted for a while and when he came back Tutankhaten was taken and Staff (of Ra) wouldn't help.

Golden Throne of Tutankhamun

New Kingdom, late 18th Dynasty, reign of Tutankhamun, ca. 1332-1323 BC. 

The luxurious armchair is distinguished by the complexity of its technique and an abundance of details. Two projecting lions’ heads protect the seat of the throne while the arms take the form of winged uraei or rearing cobras wearing the double Pschent crown of Egypt and guarding the cartouche names of the king.

The golden throne of Tutankhamun was discovered in 1922 by the British archeologist Howard Carter. It was found beneath a hippopotamus funerary bed in the antechamber of the Tomb of Tutankhamun.

The throne is called (Ist) in Egyptian hieroglyphs after the name of the mother goddess Isis. who was usually depicted bearing a throne on her head as her characteristic emblem. It is made of wood and covered with gold and silver. It is ornamented with semi-precious stones and colored glass.

The throne meant, not only the link between the worlds of Gods and the people, but also majesty, stability, safety and balance. Since kings were considered Gods on earth, it may not be difficult to imagine Tutankhamun imposing his divine will over the rest of mortals while sitting on this golden throne.

Egyptian Scarab Bracelet, from Tomb of Tutankhamun (1341-1323 BC), and was made with Gold, Lapis-lazuli, Carnelian, Turquoise and other semi-precious stones.

The scarab has been deified during Ancient Egypt. Its shape was related to the god Jepri in the graphic representation (human body and scarab face). However, normally, people referred to the scarab as Ra, the creator of the universe, one of the most important gods in the Egyptian pantheon.
