A Conversation for Tutankhamun

Tutankhamun's parents

I thought there was some doubt as to his relationship with Akhnaten (younger brother or son of younger brother being possibilities). Usually I remember stuff about the heretic pharoah (who definitely deserves an entry of his own), but this slightly escapes me. I seem to recall a recent Channel 4 programme about the contents of various tombs and some genetic testing they had done on the bodies. Anyone remember the details?

Akenhaten was definately Tutankhamun's father. I am working on an entry for him; having just finished my entry on Nefertiti, which has been posted at Peer Review {there is a link on Tut's page also}, for your perusal.
Thanks for your interest.
