British scientists create the most detailed images yet of the Egyptian pharaoh Tutankhamun who ruled Egypt in 1332-1323 BC. One theory says that Tutankhamun died from illness. As scientists found he was suffering from genetic diseases that were caused by marriages between closely related people, which were common in Egyptian pharaohs' families, the Time reported. Historians consider the pharaoh's father to be Akhenaten, the famous religious reformer, who was married to Nefertiti. The Tutankhamun's mother was another wife of Akhenaten, who, according to some scientists, was the sister of her own husband. Anhesenamon, the Tutankhamun's wife, was the daughter of Akhenaten and Nefertiti, Itar Tass said. Tutankhamun, who died at age 19, thought to be killed or died of injuries after falling from his chariot, according to other sources.
