Tutankhamon:
mystery resolved?
![]()
| Tutankhamon, the legendary child-pharaoh who reigned
in ancient Egypt and who died at 18 years old, had been killed by his
prime minister Ay. To reveal the millenary historical mystery, surpassing
all the hypothesises made up to now, is Greg Cooper, ex FBI agent. The
investigators’s new and fascinating hypothesis, reported by the Sunday
times”, will now have to conquer the experts’ and Egyptologists’ favor
Cooper, together with a group of experts, has put the mummified body of
the young king wh lived around 1350 BC to sophisticated texts, using the
same technique followed to solve omicides, even 15 years after the death.
The ex FBI agent has been able, besides analyzing the pharaoh’s remains
who had ascended to the throne when he was only 9 years old, even to
elaborate the profile of the four killers suspected. It was the first time
that Tutankhamon’s body was examined with x-rays: already in ’68 the
examination had evinced the existance of a big dark thick mass at the base
of the king’s skill, as if he’d been hit with a club. The pharaoh must have reigned in the beginning following his oldest councillors’ advice and according to their teachings and suggestions. Later he tried to get away from “the wise one” and be independent in his decision. Here the conspiracy fits in: the most suspected ones – as always in such case - were those who would have had advantages from his so premature death. The black list of the possible guilty ones made by the American 007 includes four people: Ankhesenamum, the pharaoh’s wife and step-sister; Maya his treasurer; Horemheb, the military commander and Ay, his prime minister. Considering the love band between the woman and the pharaoh, the investigators tend to exclude her, as they’ve done with his treasurer, a faithful servant. Even Horomheb, who once beca,e a pharaoh removed from the reign every inscription concerning Tutankhamon, has been “discharged” by the detective, who have seen all the signs gathered against him, fall. So everything concentrates on Ay. It was he, according to Cooper and his team, the real responsible one of the pharaoh’s death. A fresco on Tutankhamon’s tomb represant him while he presides over the pharaoh’s funeral ceremony: that role was destined only to the appointed hair. It was he, so, who hit the young king hoping to take his place.
