geez- if they would have only looked at the actuall STATUES buried with him they would have known what shape to give his nose and features- he looks almost exactly like tha gold statues of him
OMG that was one scary woman!
How?
Yes, that is why infected parts of the body are cut out/off.
That eye makeup was worn even by the poor to help block out the rays of the ever burning sun. Stick around, you might actually learn something.
look up gangrene!
feel better?

The pictures on this thread are too funny.
I would feel better when people actually read the history threads because they are actually interested. I don't understand why adults come on the history threads to make lame jokes that are not the least bit funny. All you are doing is trashing a subject that many of us find interesting. This immature behavior is uncalled for! Now, I feel better.
Yes, I agree - this is immature behavior!
And I'm waiting for more pictures please.....
Boy George and Babs wins by a long nose, I mean - long shot.
And side profile shows he has quite the overbite. Could he have been a nerd?
King Nerd?
What's wrong with that boy's head? Malformed during childbirth? or did they wear some sort of head-gear while they were babies to create that shape?
He almost looks like he has a symbiant(sp) back there.
Needs to go on etreme makeover. I think he needs a chin implant and hair extensions.
I think the young man (Tut) is very handsome. (other than the head thing) The make-up was common for the times, so you can't blame him.
He does look exactly like the statue.
Finally, there wouldn't be enough soft tissue left on a mummy to determine whether or not it was necrotic. You could possibly suggest an episode of osteomyelitis (bone infection) in a mummy. Osteomyelitis after a fracture is not at all typical (particulary a closed fracture in an otherwise healty individual), and it also doesn't develop and kill you in a day. Either these scientists are weak, or their actual statements have been distorted by the reporters.
A pointy head was an indication of royalty. It was intentional.
Find a beach somewhere.
Fishing is nice.
