King Tutankhamun, also known as "King Tut," was an ancient Egyptian pharaoh who ruled from approximately 1332 BC to 1323 BC, during the period of Egyptian history known as the New Kingdom. Tutankhamun is perhaps best known for the discovery of his tomb in the Valley of the Kings in 1922 by British archaeologist Howard Carter.In many ancient Egyptian depictions, including those found in Tutankhamun's tomb, pharaohs are shown offering offerings to various gods and goddesses. These offerings typically included food, drink, and incense, and were intended to provide sustenance and pleasure to the deities.The act of offering offerings to the gods was a central part of ancient Egyptian religious practice. The Egyptians believed that the gods and goddesses required sustenance just as mortals did, and that by providing offerings to them, they could ensure the continued prosperity and stability of their society.
