King Tutankhaman, the Boy Pharaoh

Ancient Egypt has always been a source of fascination for people around the world, and no Pharaoh is more associated with this ancient culture than the Pharaoh Tutankahaman also known as King Tut. Though relatively obscure in terms of influence within Egyptian history, the discovery of his tomb and the fine condition of the artifacts within have taken on a life of their own. The first tour of the US for the King Tut exhibit drew millions and even inspired a hit song by Steve Martin.
