royal mummies may be due to their robbery soon after burial, before the oils and resins could soak through the wrappings. It was hoped that Tutankhamun's mummy could be separated from the coffin by removing some of the outer layers of bandaging. However, the resins and unguents had penetrated the wrappings, adhering the body itself to the coffin. Ultimately, the body had to be chiseled out. The torso was cut in half at the level of the hips to remove the pelvis and legs from the coffin. The arms were disarticulated at the shoulders, elbows, and wrists in order to continue the unwrapping of the torso and to remove bracelets; each body part was treated with hot paraffin wax to stabilise it. The hands and feet were later reattached with resin. Lastly, hot knives were used to remove the head and neck from the mask. To view the condition of the teeth, Derry made an incision around the inner edge of the jaw and across the throat; this damage was repaired with resin. This thorough disarticulation of the body gave clear views of the ends of each of the relevant bones, allowing the anatomists to make an accurate estimate of the king's age. Tutankhamun was estimated to be eighteen at the time of his death and of slight build, with a projected height in life of 1.68 metres (5.5 ft).

shrouded in "gossamer thin linen, much darkened and decayed". This second coffin showed "distinct signs of the effect of some form of dampness", a fact that Carter found "disconcerting" as it indicated the presence of humidity within the coffins, suggesting the king's mummy would not be as well preserved as hoped. This middle coffin fitted tightly within the outermost, lacked handles and was "exceedingly" heavy. The silver pins securing the lid were withdrawn as far as possible, wrapped with copper wire, and the basin of the outermost coffin was lowered back into the sarcophagus, leaving the middle coffin free, quickly being supported by a wooden tray. The pins were removed, and the lid raised by means of four metal eyelets screwed on to serve as handles. The innermost coffin, made of solid gold, was covered with a red shroud, save for the face, and wore a large floral collar. It was covered from chest to ankles with unguents, which filled the space between the two coffins and stuck them firmly together. The narrow space between the coffins meant the gold nails that secured the lid could not be withdrawn, and were instead "removed piecemeal" with screwdrivers. Finally, on 28 October 1925, the "lid was raised by its golden handles and the mummy of the king was disclosed".

surrounded by cotton wool and secured by modern bandages, had deteriorated since last photographed by Carter's team in 1926. The beaded skull-cap had disappeared, as had most of the skin on the head. The eyes appeared to be wide open as the eyelids had been destroyed, and the ears were broken off. The ribs had been sawn off and the front of the king's chest, including sternum and clavicles, had been removed. Stray beads from the large beaded collar were seen scattered in the torso on the X-rays. The limbs had been moved and further disarticulated, with the left hand and thumb of the right hand found in the sand under the body. Although not mentioned by Harrison, the king's penis was also missing. The additional damage to the mummy and the removal of the skullcap and collar likely occurred during World War II, and components suggested to be from the collar have since appeared on the antiquities market.
384:. Carter had intended the examination to take place at the start of the excavation season in October but it had been delayed by a month to allow Pierre Lacau to attend. It was conducted by the anatomists Douglas Derry, the professor of anatomy at Cairo's School of Medicine, and Saleh Hamdi Bey, the former head of the same school. Those present on the first day included government officials, Egyptologists, and members of Carter's team. The external ornaments of the mummy had been removed, except for the firmly-stuck mask. This examination was an unprecedented opportunity to study the methods and techniques used in the wrapping of a royal mummy. However, the outermost layers of linen were very fragile making it immediately apparent that "no orderly unwrapping was possible". Instead, the fabric was stabilised with a very thin layer of liquid 353:
reaction, characterised by Carter as "a kind of slow spontaneous combustion", which carbonised the linen wrappings. The combination of heat and humidity had negatively affected the trappings of the mummy too. The crook and flail had disintegrated, the resin scarab was cracked, and the threads securing the separate hands and mummy bands were decayed, rendering the whole assemblage very fragile and which "fell apart at the slightest touch". Furthermore, the unguents had hardened over the millennia, sticking the mummy and mask to the bottom of the coffin. Attempts were made to separate the mummy from the inner and middle coffin troughs by placing them in the midday sun for several hours, with the temperature reaching 65 °C (149 °F). However, the mummy remained "firmly fixed" to the coffin so the initial examination was carried out

embalmer. His arms are crossed horizontally over the torso instead of diagonally over the chest, and his penis was embalmed in an erect position. Salima Ikram has suggested that these variations are deliberate, reflecting the restoration of traditional ancient Egyptian religion during his reign. The position of his arms, with elbows jutting, combined with his ithyphallic pose and the copious use of dark oils and resins, make the dead king into the image of Osiris, god of the dead and regeneration. Marianne Eaton-Krauss cautions that royal mummifications were not standardised in the Eighteenth Dynasty and the known mummies of rulers closest to Tutankhamun, those of Amenhotep III and the KV55 mummy, are largely skeletonised and cannot be used for comparison.

through an embalming incision approximately 86 millimetres (3.4 in) long, running from the navel to the left hip bone. This location is different to other royal mummies of that time period, who have the incision running from hip to groin. This cut was covered by an embalming plate, although not placed directly on the skin but in the bandage layers above. The body cavity packed with resin-soaked linen which had set to "rock-like hardness". The king's penis was wrapped separately and placed into an erect (ithyphallic) position, held in place by the crossed bandages; Derry could not say if he was circumcised. No pubic hair was evident, and the scrotum was flattened against the perineum. The toes were covered by gold stalls and the feet wore gold sandals.

portrait of the king, his face and hands of a lighter-coloured gold alloy than the rest of the coffin, "conveying an impression of the greyness of death". Around the vulture and uraeus on his brow was placed a "tiny wreath of flowers...still retaining their colour". The sarcophagus lid was left suspended, as a tour was scheduled for reporters the following day, along with the wives of Carter's collaborators. The visit of the wives was refused by government officials, a note from Mohammed Pasha Zaghlul informed Carter that the wives would need permission to visit. Carter and his team, citing "impossible restrictions and discourtesies" resigned in protest, closing the tomb and suspending work. Under the direction of the Egyptian government,
456:. His head was shaved, and wore a tight-fitting linen cap with a gold brow-band and a beaded design of uraei. The eyes, with long eyelashes, were partly open; no padding had been placed in the orbits. The nose was flattened by the layers of bandaging and the nostrils were plugged with rolls of resin-soaked linen. The brain had been removed through the nose and resin introduced into the skull cavity. The top lip had drawn back a little to reveal large front teeth which were smeared with resin. The face was clean-shaven; on the left cheek near the ear was a "rounded depression...resembling a scab". The "small and well made" ears were pierced for earrings, the hole measuring 7.5 millimetres (0.30 in) in diameter. 642:
bandaging. James Gamble suggests that the foot is not clubbed but a result of Tutankhamun habitually walking on the outside of his foot due to the pain caused by the necrosis. Depictions of Tutankhamun doing archery while seated and the presence of 130 canes in the tomb was used as evidence to support Hawass's claim that Tutankhamun had a walking impairment. However, both are indications of prestige, not a reflection of their owner's health. Depictions of kings shooting while seated date back to the Old Kingdom and canes were common symbols of status in ancient Egypt and frequently included in burials. The canes show no sign of heavy use and his footwear shows even wear on both feet.
246: 208: 368: 159:. After an initial examination of the 3,300-year-old mummy, it was estimated that Tutankhamun was a teenager of approximately 19 years of age when he died. Since it was believed that Tutankhamun became king as a child no more than ten years old, many refer to him as the "Boy-King" or "Child-King". Following the discovery of Tutankhamun's mummy, much debate has arisen as to his exact cause of death. This has led to numerous medical studies and procedures performed on his remains. As medical technology has advanced throughout the years, new techniques have been utilized on the mummy to discover the true age, 3707: 408:
on other noble mummies of the same era. Large quantities of folded linen pads were used over the torso and thighs to provide shape. The outermost and innermost bandages were of extremely fine linen while the middle layers of bandages were of coarser fabric. Elaborate bandaging was noted over the shoulders and chest, with bandages criss-crossed over the shoulders and around the torso; a similar arrangement was seen around the crotch. The limbs were first separately wrapped, as were the fingers and toes, which were capped with gold

due to blunt force trauma was ruled out. He also had a small cleft palate that probably went unnoticed, and the elongated shape of his skull was within the normal range and appeared to be a family trait. Based on bone maturity and his wisdom teeth, Tutankhamun was confirmed to be 19 years old at the time of his death. The CT scan proved Tutankhamun was in good health and did not show any signs of disease. The study suggested that a previously unnoticed leg fracture may have contributed to his death.

third shrines were intact, sealed with stamped cords; the doors of the innermost shrine were left unsealed in antiquity. These unbroken seals, with no evidence of re-sealing, indicated that the 3300 year old burial of the king was intact. Over the course of eighty days, the shrines were dismantled and removed from the chamber. On 3 January 1924, the doors of the third and fourth (innermost) shrines were opened, revealing the king's sarcophagus, of yellow

Salima Ikram consider the latter two theories unlikely. They suggest that as the king was apparently an experienced charioteer (six were found in his tomb), he would be unlikely to stand in range of a horse kick. Additionally, even if a hippo was encountered, his bodyguards would have protected him; Thutmose III was protected by his guards from an attacking elephant while hunting.

Rings of various materials including gold, stone, and resin were also included in the wrappings, with a group of five over the right wrist, and eight beside the left wrist. Tutankhamun wore two gold rings on the middle and ring fingers of his left hand; the bezels depict a kneeling king presenting a figure of the goddess 533:
initially believed to be the result of the embalming process. The fact that skull fragments were discovered led many to assume the king was murdered by a blow to the head, but the X-ray could not support or discredit this theory. His age at death was again estimated to be around 18, with a projected height in life of 168.9 centimetres (5 ft 6.5 in).
664:. There are many educated and respected Egyptologists as well as trained professionals in other fields who have devoted a lot of time researching Tutankhamun and who have varying beliefs to his cause of death. Some have stood by their theories even in light of new evidence. Some of the theories are better known and supported than others. 313:-bird with outstretched wings. The mummy bands were constructed of separate gold plaques linked together along the sides by strings of tiny beads. They overlaid the vertical and horizontal fabric bands that secured the shroud at the centre front, biceps, hips, knees, and ankles. The text of the single vertical band has speeches by 204:, which Davis declared to be Tutankhamun's tomb. However, Carter believed that the king's tomb was still undiscovered, hidden under piles of debris from earlier excavations. Following a systematic clearance that began in 1917, Carter's team would discover the real tomb of Tutankhamun on 4 November 1922. 725:
The examination of the king's mummy was little-reported in both Arab and Western media at the time.

In 2010, a team led by Zahi Hawass diagnosed Tutankhamun with a clubbed left foot with avascular necrosis of the second and third metatarsals (Köhler disease II).

The initial 1925 examination did not mention any signs of disease, and the first X-ray study ruled out tuberculosis. Subsequently, a wide variety of health conditions have been proposed for Tutankhamun, based on both his unusual depiction in art and his mummy. The theorised conditions are many and
