Best Answer

Tutankhamun became Pharaoh in 1333 BC. He was only 10 years old when he became a "boy King".

"King Tut's original name was Tutankhaten which means 'the living image of Aten". After the death of his unpopular father, he changed his name to Tutankhamun which means 'the living image of Amun". (Quoted from: historyforkids.net/tutankhamun.html)

King Tut's reign ended in 1323 BC. Some people say he died from an infection in his leg. But no one can say for sure how he died.
