Isn't it Auchenaten(sp) who the 'experts' claim probably had Marfan Syndrome (Abe Lincoln Disease)?

Its producer, Kate Botting, said the spinal problem emerged as FBI investigators sought some answers to the theory that Tutankhamun was murdered.

Huh?

Well, if they can figure out who killed King Tut, perhaps they can find out who killed Chandra Levy.

Watch the program The Assassination of King Tut, premiering on the Discovery Channel Oct. 6, 9 p.m. I have been waiting for this, the promos look good.

"His head is like it's on a broomstick or a poker," the researcher explained. "So that if he fell backward or there was a blow to the back of his head - a serious spinal cord injury at that level."

Wheww, sounds like a case of Trent's Lottitis... in this case, there is a spine, tho' ;.

Yes, some people suggest Akhenaton had Marfans, judging from his likeness as represented in sculpture and drawing.

An odd sort, in more ways than one. I've always thought him a brilliant and tragic figure.

Bob Brier (whose appearance on the Discovery special would come as no surprise) has written an excellent, readable, accessible book on the subject.

What will all the people on this forum, who have constantly responded with hate and vitriol to anybody who dared claim that at the very least there was a large percentage of black Egyptians, have to say now. What twists and knots will they turn themselves into trying to explain this. Some will even claim" Why, gee, it looks like Captain Picard", just as they do in their delusional belief that Kenniwick man is European.

Hey... hey quiet down. The black people of Africa have built pyramids.

But they were just pointier and not so well constructed.

Sure, king “Tut” might look like Darryl Strawberry but that was when Egypt tanked.

I tell anyone who is curious... READ!
