Explanation:
It was also momentous, for his death meant the beginning of the end for ancient Egypt's 18th dynasty.
How could this have happened?
Experts have speculated about possible causes ever since British archaeologist Howard Carterdiscovered Tut's tomb in the Valley of the Kings in 1922. (See "King Tut's Tomb.")
Now a British team apparently believes that it has solved the mystery, with details to be unveiled this coming Sunday in a television show titled "Tutankhamun: The Mystery of the Burnt Mummy."

According to press reports from the U.K., the team worked with x-rays taken of Tut in 1968.
