    Tutankhamen was a young Egyptian pharaoh who ruled from 1333-1323 BC. He became king as a child after the death of his father. In 1922, British archaeologist Howard Carter discovered Tutankhamen's nearly intact tomb in the Valley of the Kings in Egypt, containing artifacts that provided clues about life in ancient Egypt. Though Tutankhamen became king at a young age, he died unexpectedly at around age 10, leaving his short rule as pharaoh somewhat mysterious.
