My Interview with King Tut

Hi, I'm RP, here with King Tut. Mr. Tut it is an honor to have you here.  Would you mind If I ask you a few questions?


King Tut: Not at all Mr. P. I will always share my life story to the world to hear. Shall we get started?


Ryan: Yes. We should get started.


1. Ryan: Mr. Tut, why are you so famous?


Tut: Well, I am so famous because of all my treasures in my tomb. Also because my tomb was basically untouched. Because of all the gold though, my tomb got robbed quite often. All my people tried to get my stuff back as soon as possible. They did eventually get all of it back. 


2. R: What gods or goddesses did you believe in?


T: For my religion, I believed in the sole god, Aten. When I was born, my parents named me after him. My birthname was Tutankhaton, which meant " the Living Image of Aten". My name now is Tutankhamun because I abandoned my father's beliefs in Aten.


3. R: Did you have any conditions, like mental or physical conditions? Were you tall or short?


T: Yes I did, I had a "slightly cleft palate" in my head. I also may have had a small case of scoliosis, which means your spine curves from side to side.  That's a medical disease. I was about 5 ft. 11 in. tall. Whatever you consider that to be.  


4. R: Who first discovered your tomb? Were there many rooms or just one room in it? When your tomb got robbed, did you get your stuff back?


T: The first people to discover my tomb were the people of the names of Howard Carter and Lord Canarvon. In my tomb, there were about 4 or 5 rooms. The first room was a fake room that had a hidden door that led to the rest of my tomb.


5. R: Most people say that your mummy had a "curse". Do you believe in that?


T: Well, it is kind of weird that Lord Canarvon shortly died after opening my sarcophagus. He didn't die right when he opened it. People says that he had a mosquito bite on his neck and that's how he died. It's a belief. People are saying that whoever opened my sarcophagus would face the "Wrath of the Mummy".


6: R:  Why did people say that mummies had healing powers. Who believed in that?


 T: The '' healing powers'' of the mummies was this magical powder that the mummies had. It wasn't until my tomb that the media had started picking up on the healing powder. The people who believed in the healing powers were the Egyptians.  


R: Thank you Mr. Tut for the talk. I hope the people all over the world know more about you now because of this interview. It was an honor to speak with such a famous person. Thank you King Tut for your time. I'll remember this day for the rest of my life because I interviewed such a famous person.


T: You're very welcome. I always love sharing my story with the world. People out on the television, I want the world to hear my story in this interview. Thank you Mr. P. for your time.
