A photo released by the Supreme Council of Antiquities and the National Geographic Society on May 10, 2005 shows a model of King Tutankhamun made by a French team based on facial reconstructions from CT scans of King Tutankhamun's mummy. Teams of forensic artists and scientists built models of the boy pharaoh's face based on some 1,700 high-resolution photos from CT scans of his mummy to reveal what he looked like the day he died nearly 3,300 years ago.

The facial reconstruction is most likely bullshit because DNA test already proved king tut was black and the egyption empire was ruled by blacks but he may have just been light skin because black people have all pheno types even those that would be considered white but I think they depicted him looking "middle eastern" (I don't say Arab cause the real original Arabs are black and are still in parts of the middle east) because they try to deny that ancient Egypt was a black ruled empire people think they were middle eastern because that's who's in Egypt now but the only reason there in Egypt and north Africa is because of the invasions during the spread of Islam so people need to stop the bullshit and tell the truth about history
