Who was Tutankhamun, and what was his life really like? In this talk, Garry J Shaw presents Tutankhamun as a person, rather than as a distant god-king or a symbol of ancient Egypt. Using details from the boy king’s treasures and possessions - from a lock of his grandmother’s hair to a reed cut with his own hands - Shaw reveals the life of this enigmatic young king, and looks too at Ankhesenamun, Tutankhamun’s wife. The talk is based on Shaw’s new book, The Story of Tutankhamun: An Intimate Life of the Boy Who Became King (Yale University Press, 2022).

I loved the personal aspects of his life. Clothing, staves etc. The sound is a bit glitchy though. Thanks for the video.
A very interesting and informative talk. Some aspects of his life I was unaware of. I will be buying this book. Thank you.
Verry interesting video pact with facts I didn't know. But please improve the sound quality somehow? Even the subtitles in English(!) picked up what Dr. Shaw said were wrong! All facts I didn't know (being a seasoned viewer of all things concerning Tut-ankh-Amun!) about him. Again verry interesting, but the sound quality was HORRIBLE(!!!) Please correct it soon? Thank you and
greetings from The Netherlands, Kathy van Bommel. 🙂
