I've been translating the results of the scan of Tut...which can be also find here
http://www.guardians.net/hawass/press_release_tutankhamun_ct_scan_results.htm

I think you should read it carefully....it tells a lot of things Wink

1-he didn't die for a blow to his head, scientists have proven that the piece of bone has broken by the priests during the embalming process.
2- the sternum and ribs have been cut...so it is quite probable that it has been done by Carter's team while looking for artifacts of gold (which seemed to be their first aim!!)
3-Tut could not have died due to the break to the leg bone (this cannot cause death) and no sign of infection was detected in the soft tissues in the area, so he could not died for such an infection.
4- it is too quite probable that the boneof the leg was broken after his death, by Carter's team while trying to unglue the body from the coffin. Scientists found few remains of resins along the edges of the broken bones which, at first sight,made them think of the fact that it could happened a little before Tut's death, but then they soon realise that those resins where just few drops that could have fit the internal side of the fracture due to the fact that Carter's team used lamps to heat and unglue the body from the coffin, so the resins melted inside the edges of the fractured bone of the left leg.

Is Carter's daughter still alive?

It's pretty obvious that Carter is dead now, due to the ravages of old age. But is his daughter still alive? If she were, she'd be in her eighties or nineties by now. I ask because she was there during the excavation - she was the first one to take pictures of the tomb, too! Perhaps she would be a valuable resource to say exactly what went on during the excavation?

It wasn't Carter's daughter, but Lord Carnarvon's, Lady Evelyn Herbert, who was present at the opening(s). Alas, she died in 1979 at age 78. Harry Burton, on loan from the Metropolitan Museum, took hundreds of photographs at different stages of the excavation. Many of these photos were published at the time and later collected and republished in book form.

.....did you finish the emoticons???

According to me he's been killed....but that's my own idea and stil there are no evidences of that or not. He could also have been poisoned...but we cannot make tests to established if this was the case or not.
So, every possibility is still opened. Wink

The order of events and the succession to the throne following his death strongly suggest that Tut's demise was not an accident. How the deed was done is going to be almost impossible to prove, thanks to (among many others) Howard Carter and his crew.

I never said i was sure but i REALLY believe that he was murdered. I think that everyone has all these different ideas but fairly said they are all just theory's. I know that i will never know what really happened but still i know what i think happened. But i do know all the facts my brain could take on King Tut! Smile

But when it comes to the word facts who says all the things i read on the internet or something are true? Cool

I guess that is another thing i will never knw but still i know what i think and if some one will proove me wrong on one of my theorys then good i will think of an other one but i will allways think that he was murderd because the poor guy was 18 and fairly healthy. Wink
