Answer:

  King Tut's coffin was put in hot sun because the sun can beat like a hammer in far south of Egypt and Carter tried to use it to loosen the resins of the coffin. So, for several hours he set the mummy outside in blazing sunshine that heated it to 149° F. But nothing bulged.

King Tut's coffin was put in sun because-

  • King Tut's coffin was placed in the blazing sun because Carter attempted to loosen the resins in the coffin by using the sun, which can beat like a hammer in far southern Egypt.
  • He therefore left the mummy outside in the hot sun for a while, which raised its temperature to 149° F. Yet, nothing grew.
  • The Tut's coffin's resins solidified, causing the body to become stuck to the coffin's base.
  • As a result, the coffin was placed under the scorching sun to melt the resin's hardness and allow the Tut's body to be removed.
  • Tutankhamun became famous because his tomb, which contained amazing artefacts that allowed Egyptologists to better understand the mummification process, was found completely intact.
