Overview

Dan journeys back to 1323 BC, as he investigates an injury the pharaoh sustained towards the end of his life, an injury that would eventually result in his death. A scan of Tutankhamun's skeleton reveals a break to his thigh bone, and whilst visiting the Grand Egyptian Museum, Dan comes across 130 walking sticks which were found in his tomb, which suggest the young king was unable to walk unaided before his death.
