King Tut


King Tut's Family Tree - An Interactive Display

The cover story for this month's issue of National Geographic is titledKing Tut's Family Secrets. The article explains how scientists have used DNA to construct King Tut's family tree. To complement the article, National Geographic has created a simple interactive display of King Tut's family tree. You can view his entire family tree or isolate the display to show the lineage of just one parent.

National Geographic has some videos that might also be of interest to people teaching lessons about King Tut or Ancient Egypt in general.
King Tut's Tomb, embedded below, is a short video overview of how archeologists and scientists examine evidence to determine how King Tut died.
