Description

The King's mummy, daily routine, and children. Thanks to the preservation of his burial, we know a lot about Tut'ankhamun's daily life and habits. Aspects of his routine, like his shaving kit, walking sticks, and even his children survive to this day. Some of these stories are curious, others carry echoes of tragedy and loss. Support the Show at www.patreon.com/egyptpodcast.This episode contains detailed descriptions of human remains and themes like stillbirth.Date: c.1334 BCEKing: Neb-kheperu-Ra Tut-ankh-AmunMusic by Keith Zizza https://www.keithzizza.net/Music by Ancient Lyric http://www.bettinajoydeguzman.com/Sound Interludes by Luke Chaos https://twitter.com/Luke_ChaosAudio mixing/editing by Vincent Cavanagh.Hear additional music on my Spotify Playlist.Website www.egyptianhistorypodcast.comFacebook www.facebook.com/egyptpodcastTwitter www.twitter.com/egyptianpodcast See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
