Nebkheprune Tutankhamen is probably the most
famous pharaoh in ancient Egyptian history,
although not the most important. He lived a very
short life, from 1503 to 1482 BCE to be exact. He
was the ruler by the time he had turned nine years
of age. Nobody really knows that much about him
because he lived to only be around eighteen years
old. Only because of an archaeologist by the name

on February 12, 1924 do we even have concrete
proof that he ev...

deaths, which cause problems for the lovers, and
through premonitions and dreams of death. Both
Juliet and her Romeo exhibit these premonitions /
dreams . The use of death is immediately seen in
