The Process of Becoming a Pharaoh

The next king was usually the son or daughter of the previous king. If you were the oldest you were first in line to take over. He took the throne, inheratints and of course Egypt. When the old king died the next one held the funeral and had his corination.

The Pharaohs Duties

The pharaohs job was to control Egypt. That's a big job so he had people to do stuff for him. His main jobs were to fix irrigation canals, punishment and govern Egypt. He was invloved in the court system with other big people to keep order in Egypt.

Fashion of the Pharaohs

Clothes, jewelry and makeup was esential in a pharaohs look. Today only women wear makeup but in Egypt it was totally different. Everyone wore makeup including men. But i'm just going to talk about the pharaohs. They had 6 different headdresses but the most famous one is the Nemes. It was gold with blue stripes. Pharaohs were usually buried with this head piece. I think this fact is creepy, they wore a false beard.

King Tutankamen

King Tutankamen or King Tut was one of the youngest pharaohs to take the throne. Guess how old he was when he toke over Egypt. Ok I'll tell you, he was 9 years old. He died at a very young age at 19. No one knows how he died, some say murder or he died of diesese. People searched for a long time to find his grave but it was found in the Valley of the Kings. The valley of the kings is a secret burial place instead of the pyramids. Theives would steal from the pyramids. It was the early 1900s when they did. He was buried with roomfuls of valuebles. There was a curse to his tomb. It was whoever entered his tomb would be curse.
