	The Amazing Riches of Tutankhamen - AAA Encyclopedia
		However closely he may have followed the descriptions of the finds in the tomb of Tutankhamen, however vivid his imagination, he will hardly be prepared for the discovery that the material completely fills the long East Gallery of the upper floor of the museum, and even overflows into the North.
		Now the East Gallery is 80 yards long and 10 yards broad, and the cases in it are placed no farther apart than is necessary to allow visitors to move freely.
		A younger sister had been married Tutankhamen, of whose birth we know nothing, though some now think he may have been a brother of Akhnaton (others believe he was a son).

	End Paper: New Take on Tut's Parents (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-08-23)
		His mummy suggests that he was a lightly built young man of medium height, whose skull was of the broad-oblong type, large but not excessively so, and that his facial features in life were as refined as his portraits suggest, even though he had the pronounced overbite that was characteristic of his Thutmosid ancestors.
		Thus, since he did succeed his brother, it may be presumed that Tutankhamen was the son of someone other than Akhenaten (allowing that Smenkhkare was not, in fact, a son of the latter, born when he was still crown prince).
		Tutankhamen's parentage probably never will be determined to Egyptologists' satisfaction, and the boy-king will always remain an individual from antiquity about which so much is known, and yet so little.

		When King Tutankhamen died suddenly at an early age, the tomb that perhaps was originally planned for him in the Western Valley, at some distance from his grandfather Amenhetep III, was nowhere near completion.

		It is similar to the storerooms of other burial chambers in the Valley, and had the only doorway in KV 62 not sealed with plaster and gravel fill.

		When in the 19th dynasty the "Amarna kings"--Akhenaton, Smenkhkare, Tutankhamen, and Ay--were stricken from the royal lists and publicly condemned, the location of Tutankhamen's tomb was forgotten, and his relatively few monuments were usurped, chiefly by his former general, Horemheb, who later became pharaoh.

		Tutankhamen's second coffin is seen by Dodson and Ikram as also deriving from Smenkhkare's funerary ensemble because it differs stylistically from his outer and innermost coffins.
		However, Reeves' opinion that the type "M" seal would not be employed after Tutankhamen's death is contradicted by the fact that a seal impression of very similar appearance was found in an undoubtedly funereal context in KV Pit 54, along with refuse material from the boy king's mummification and funerary banquet.
