King Tutankaten grew up in the North Palace at Akhetaten. His parentage is uncertain, but an inscription on a block from Akhetaten tells us that he was the son of a king and he may have been the son of the heretic king Akhenaten and his wife Kiya. King Tut was about 18 years old when he died, and had no great claim to fame other than the fact that he was an Egyptian pharoah. His fame in history is mostly due to the discovery of his tomb in 1922, which was completely almost intact.
