According to a recent article from a tour website, King Tutankhamen was not a powerful ruler, but the discovery of his tomb and its vast treasures has given the modern world a better understanding of how great the pharaohs were.
(http://www.touregypt.net/featurestories/tutt.htm).

A National Geographic article written by Zahi Hawass, who is a world-renowned archaeologist, explains the relationship that Tutankhamen had with his family (http://ngm.nationalgeographic.com/2010/09/tut-dna/hawass-text/3).

ABC News reports that research has found evidence that King Tut died a boring death; despite the popular belief that he was murdered, evidence has shown that King Tut died of malaria and a leg fracture
