Research by German scientists from the Bernhardt-Nocht Institute of Tropical Diseases in Germany cast a shadow over the thesis, put forward by Zahi Havas, President of the Egyptian Institute of Antiquities, and his team in February, that Tutankhamun had congenital cleft lips and clubfoot, and died of complications from a broken leg caused by malaria. .
Researchers Christian Timmann and Christian Meyer argued that Havas and his team’s thesis on the cause of Tutankhamun’s death was not plausible, that malaria was especially fatal in children, and that Tutankhamun was a young adult at the time of his death.

I’m so sorry to be in such an awkward position. I didn’t say I got the talisman from you.”
