" More than three thousand treasures were placed in the tomb to help Tutankhamen in his afterlife, not including the surrounding walls painted with scenes of Tutankhamen's voyage to the afterworld. Tutankhamen's mummy rested in the innermost coffin, which is made of solid gold, while his body was wrapped in linen with an exquisite gold mask placed over his head. The two outer ones of gold hammered over wooden frames. On the king's head was a magnificent golden portrait mask, and numerous pieces of jewelry and amulets lay upon the mummy and in its wrappings. Spectacular alabaster sculptures presided along the perimeter of one of the chambers. There was furniture of all kinds, and even games, which were assumed to be present as Tutankhamen was a young man when he met his premature death. All of the beautiful golden items found in the tomb of King Tutankhamen suggest an ancient society where gold was considered divine and honorable, accurately compared to modern day's society. By observing the tomb of Tutankhamen, it is not an uncommon conclusion that the Ancient Egyptians were highly skilled in artistic fields. .

             A natural treasure found within the tomb of King Tutankhamen is the actual skeletal remains of the boy prince. These remains found in King Tutankhamen's tomb not only suggest a religious society concerned with the notion of an afterlife, but rather a politically corrupt society as well. King Tutankhamen died when he was approximately 17, ostensibly of natural causes. However, it has recently been suggested through X-ray analyses that Tutankhamen passed away as a result from a sharp blow to the back of his skull. This scientific evidence suggests an assassination, as his skull was hit and fractured in a manner highly improbable without human assistance. One common belief is that the assassin was Aye, the successor to Tutankhamen, as there is a mural painted in the tomb of Tutankhamen depicting the "opening of the mouth" ceremony held right after Tutankhamen's death.
