Best Answer

King Tutankhamun was not a very popular king. There is no personal significance that signifies his popularity in the fact that he was buried in three coffins-this is simply how pharaohs were buried according to the Egyptian religion. King Tutankhamun's tomb was the only tomb of a pharaoh found to date that had been untouched since the time of its original closing, and therefore it contained many more riches. However, the haphazard placing of precious objects in the tomb shows a general lack of respect for the king himself. In short, it was mainly a religious significance rather than a sign of personal respect and liking for the king himself.
