What were king tuts kids names?
King Tut was only nine when he married his half sister Ankhesanamun. They had two daughters, but both died in infancy. One of the girls was the victim of the same disease that had afflicted Tut's father, Akhenatun, which produces an elongated skull, and extremely long arms, fingers and toes. Both daughters were buried with him.
All discovered records and information seem to verify that Tut and Ankhesanamun were not only devoted to each other, but to their children. The fact that the two girls were buried with Tut is further indication that he was a very loving father, since the usual burial for children was in their own separate grave, or with their mother.
Tut himself only lived until he was 18. Examinations of his mummy have proven that he had many physical deformities, although the reasons that modern autopsies have given for his death also include a hunting accident and murder.
His death without heirs led to his wife becoming a prize, since she was not only his widow, but also the next in line to the throne (Girls could not inherit in their own right, but when there was no son, the oldest daughter's husband could become Pharaoh). The possibility that Tut was murdered stems from this fact. He had at least two advisers who might have wanted him out of the way.
Ankhesanamun's grave has not been found to date.
