The pharaoh was buried in Egypt's Valley of the Kings without a heart (or a replacement artifact known as a heart scarab); his penis was mummified erect; and his mummy and coffins were covered in a thick layer of black liquid that appear to have resulted in the boy-king catching fire...
The mummified erect penis and other burial anomalies were not accidents during embalming, Ikram suggests, but rather deliberate attempts to make the king appear as Osiris, the god of the underworld, in as literal a way as possible. The erect penis evokes Osiris' regenerative powers; the black liquid made Tutankhamun's skin color resemble that of Osiris; and the lost heart recalled the story of the god being cut to pieces by his brother Seth and his heart buried.
Making the king appear as Osiris may have helped to undo a religious revolution brought about by Akhenaten, a pharaoh widely believed to be Tutankhamun's father, Ikram said.

Great minds also know about detachable penises.
I don’t know much about Egypt but I always thought King Tut’s mummified erect penis was pointing out exit ramps on the Cairo–Alexandria freeway.
Maybe it is just my lack of knowledge about these things, but once you die doesn’t the penis stay flaccid? How exactly does one mummify an erect penis. Did he die with a permanent woodie?

I bet this has been passed to Billy Clinton and he has modified his Advanced Medical Directive to add this procedure...... :-)
He’s the effin’ pharaoh, that’s how! ;’)
It seems to me that an erection would make Tut look more like Min than Osiris. In today’s world, the only appropriate place for a picture of Min is on a Viagra label!
Well now we know why the piramids look the way they do
I believe that in many cases, ancient herbal recipes can work MUCH better than our modern chemicals.....
ROFLMAO!
I think Ramses the Great should have gotten that treatment. He had over a hundred children.
It was cheap Scotch I spewed- so I’ll not hold you responsible this time..
Ramses’ tomb has the largest single room in the KV, this probably explains the height of the ceiling.
And the obelisks...
Heh... Geb’s, uh, endowment is edited out of the modern prudish reproductions from Islamic modern [sic] Egypt.
I knew John Wayne Bobbitt wasn’t the first.
He should see his doctor. They say if you have an erection that lasts more than four hours...
Forget calling the doctor....I'm calling EVERYBODY!
