Dear all Users,
A few weeks ago I had a chance to watch a special program regarding the mystery death of the young Pharaoh Tuttankhamen,who died at the age17-19, from BBC5 channel(UK),The program was done by two american FBI agents, who tried to investigate the mystery death of Pharaoh.The program lasted over an hour,step by step,FBI agents were following every single link,Even,they have put the body of Pharaoh through the latest medical exuipment which allows to present over 5000 images of body,Thanks to that images,they have discoverd a few damages at the back of his head,image shows swallen backside of his head, and a few damages on his leg,probably before his death Tutankhamen was limping, which was most likely caused by his enormous interest in riding a horse,FBI agents stated that most like the pharaoh fell down from a horse. He was still alive but limping,Doctors said that the pharaoh hardly could live with a swallen head,it was serious damage,the question how and what had caused this damage.Eventually two FBI agents had put the end of investigation,they have found a murder of The Pharaoh Tutankhamen.
Now,there is another statement has been realesed by Open Society,they strongly condemn the statemant of being murdered.
By the way,two FBI agents blamed AY the closest person to Tutankhamen,who became temporary Pharaoh afterwards.
Can anyone tell me any information regarding Tutankhamen(life,reforms,egypt in his time,etc) ?
Much Appreciate.

The question is, what do FBI angents have to do with Tut's death?

I think i watched that program too, perhaps some other one, but it also was about the reasons of his death. But in the program, that i've seen, the investigation was done by scientists from Egypt, Yale University and few others. It was on Discovery channel. What i learned from that program is, as you mentioned, the reason of his death was the swollen leg, which was damaged somewhere in the knee area when he fell from horse. Since penicillin did not exist that time, healers could not stop young pharaoh from dying. The previous hypothesis that Tut died from the strong hit to the back of his head, just above the neck, was proved to be wrong, although the small round head supported that assumption. It was proven that the hole was made after he died. As scientists assume, to suck off Tut's brain, some kind of tradition.
