The mummified body of King Tut (Tutankhamun 1355 – 1346 BC) was cut up in several places by the first expedition led by British Egyptologist Howard Carter, sometime in 1925-26. This was done to\xa0extract the jewels and amulets that were adorned on the embalmed body. The remains had become fragile due to this mishandling and rested on a sandy coffin. Since then, it had been moved twice for examination by X-Ray.In January, 2005, it was taken for a complete CT scan, by an Egyptian team, to establish the cause of death of the young king. Thousands of scanned images were reviewed and it was established that King Tut was not murdered.
