Isn't that most of them?

t. Sumerian

His famous because he is a unique pharaoh not because he was a good one. If he wasn't a child nobody would care about him

>>1770740
What? King Tut's reign is very interesting. He was the Pharaoh who ended Akhenaten's monotheistic cult and moved the capital back to Thebes, although this probably happened with him as his advisers' puppet

We actually know stuff about hin which makes him interesting most pharohs that existed we know nothing about.

what continents?

in what way does "america" relate to Tutankhamun?

>>1770906

read the last four lines of the op

>>1770740
He's more famous for his immense wealth and the treasure buried with him than anything else.

>>1770740
Except Amerigo was a "scientist" who thanks to his vast knowledge about plants and animals found out that America is actually not India. He truly "discovered" it.

You mean Tutankhaten.

>>1770906
his real name was Tutankhamerican

>>1770906
bait

no one is this stupid

>>1771010
This normal people know him or at least his name because of his famous mask. I know I did when I saw it in some childrens book.

>>1771010

This. If the average person knows about him at all, it's because his death mask is the most famous archaeological discovery ever, and not because of anything he did during his life.

>>1771128

Hivemind!

>>1771131
Most people don't know anything about any Pharaohs besides the pyramids and attaching the Exodus story to Ramses II. Tutankhamen (or his handlers) held back the rise of monotheism for close to a millennium

What was so great about England's King Henry VIII? Other than for his six wives, why should we remember him?

>>1771150
> egypt
> monotheism
Wait... Isn't Akhenaten just a black name for Moses?

>>1771154

Nothing really, other than him being very well recorded and having a multitude of human, relatable flaws.

>>1771157
Akhenaten was the pharaoh that made it his policy to exclusively worship Aten over all of the other gods. His reign is also notable in that the artistic depictions of him and his family broke convention in an extreme way for the first time in Egyptian history.

I want Akhenaten to rape my wife as Aten the sun disk watches overhead approvingly

Weird looking fucker.

>>1771010
Makes me wonder what was the treasure of Egypt's greatest kings if a child had all this

>>1771190
that's not how he actually looked, it's more to do with deviating from the standard, formalized depictions that is typical of Egyptian art. He's also the only Pharaoh to depict himself playing with his children

>>1771208
He wasn't truly a child since he died when he was 19, which was manhood back then. Still very young, but he did "rule" for ten years.

If we had flags you'd be British

The discovery of Tutankhamen's burial tomb was one of, if not the greatest archaeological find in history. That's why he's famous.

>>1771154
His decision go protestant and take his whole country with him just so he could get a divorce is pretty significant. Definitely a larger than life figure.

>>1771242
>Aten is not a malfunctioning gaia engine.
Plz go.

>>1770740
Because he didn't get graverobbed?

>>1771190
he most likely didn't actually look like that and was trying to depict himself in an androgynous way to increase the connection between him and the aten which he described as both the father and mother of the universe

>>1771208
probably not much more, the 18th dynasty was one of the richest periods in egyptian history

Before being conquered by Alexander, ancient Egypt lasted a very long fucking time. Like 2500 years before Alexander was born.
