KING TUT: MURDER & LEGEND

Over 3,000 years ago, they tore ancient Egypt apart. And then they vanished...Nefertiti, the perfect one - and her husband, Akhenaten, the radical king. This revolutionary couple would shake the foundations of Egypt as they threw out the old government, the old capital city and even replaced the old gods. In less than 20 years they would turn Egypt on its head, and they themselves would disappear from history. But what happened to Nefertiti and her husband, Akhenaten — the likely father of King Tut? In a dark and mysterious tomb located in the Valley of the Kings, there is a small chamber with two mummies without sarcophagi or wrappings. At times, both have been identified as Queen Nefertiti by scholars, filmmakers and historians. But the evidence has been circumstantial at best.
