Tutankhamun became Pharaoh at a young age, likely due to the political instability following the reign of his predecessor, Akhenaten, who had implemented significant religious changes. As the son of Akhenaten and one of his lesser-known queens, Tutankhamun was positioned to restore traditional polytheistic beliefs and the worship of Amun. His ascent to the throne was also likely supported by influential advisors and priests who wanted to restore the old order. Despite his brief reign, he is famously known today due to the discovery of his nearly intact tomb in 1922.
