What happened at the Reign of Tutankhamun begins
Tutankhamun ascended Egypt's throne around 1332 BCE, likely around age nine, following the reign of Akhenaten and a brief, poorly documented rule by Smenkhkare or Neferneferuaten. Genetic evidence suggests Akhenaten was probably his father, though this remains debated among scholars. His reign, guided early on by advisors such as Ay and Horemheb, saw Egypt reverse Akhenaten's religious upheaval, restoring the traditional worship of Amun and other gods after the Atenist reforms. Tutankhamun died around 1323 BCE, still young, and would have faded into obscurity had his nearly intact tomb not been discovered in 1922 by Howard Carter, making him one of antiquity's most famous rulers.
