Tutankhamun's Significance To the Egyptians


You might look at my heading and think, "King Tut... significant?" Well the truth is Tutankhaman was very significant to the Egyptians. During the time that he ruled, he visited many different places in Egypt. When he went to those other places, he would bring back with him precious items, such as spices and gold. Yeah, wooh spices! But the truth is, Egyptians had very few spices back in those times. Also, in King Tut's Restoration Inscription, the King describes his donations to the Temple of Karnak precious and rare. I know, you might be thinking, "What in the world is a Restoration Inscription?" Well, I'm getting there. A Restoration Inscription is sort of like a special project people do to help the community. King Tut obviously cared a lot about Ancient Egypt at the time he ruled.
