The Kings Monologue | The Tutankhamun Re-Reconstruction Experiment @kingmono | Uploaded March 2023 | Updated October 2024, 3 hours ago.
King Tutankhamun continues to captivate the world since his discovery. In this short video I wanted to try something new. Was it possible to FIX a modern reconstruction.

Some reconstructions are completely faulty, and for that reason unsalvagable. Western historians, in their haste to Europeanise the appearance of Tut, go as far to as to completely disregard, even the science of facial reconstruction, with very questionable positioning of his facial features.

The first reconstruction that didn't seem to do that by Western researchers was this one by Andrew Nelson. For that reason, I used this as the foundation for a new experiment. Can I FIX a partially faulty reconstruction? Will doing this process present any new advantages to my approach to reconstructing Ancient characters in line with their artworks and NOT western bias.

Renowned Western University researcher Andrew Nelson studies bioarcheology, in part, because it allows him to understand how people lived thousands of years ago. And while he has travelled the world investigating ancient mummies, his latest adventure with King Tut is one for the ages. - I wanted to revise this work.

We didn't address artificial cranial deformation, this includes head binding, which is a practice carried out by mainly African cultures. This has been researched by Dr. Robert Martin who researched how the tradition was implemented by prominent figures in Ancient Egypt. This reconstruction is presented with a crown hiding this feature.
