It all started with Tutanhkamon's father. He outlawed the old religon, and put in place, one god. (many though he did this to get past all the priests attempting to grab power). The majority of the Egyptian people were upset about this. Aton (Tut's father) soon had a son, whom he named Tutanskaton (meaning he who is beneficual to Aton, Atom being the one god that Egypt now had to worship) Soon, Aton died and Tutanhkaton gained the throne at age 13, and changed his name to Tutanhkamon (meaning he who is beneficial to Amon, Amon being one of the old gods) Then Tutanhkamon banned the old god and replaced it with all the old gods (many think he did this because he was the puppet king of an old Priest). Then before his twentieth birthday he mysterously died. No-one knows what happened to him, and that makes him all the more famous.
