Tutankhamun (also known as King Tut) became an Egyptian pharaoh in 1332 BC when he was just a young boy. His father was a contro

versial leader who closed sacred temples and overturned ancient religions. When Tut became pharaoh, he undid many of the unpopular decisions made by his father. However, the reputation of Tut was still viewed negatively. Tut was not considered an influential ruler. His name was left out of historical records after his death. When Tutankhamun died around the age of 19, he was buried in a royal tomb in Egypt's Valley of the Kings.
The fame of King Tut began with English Egyptologist Howard Carter, who decided to look for King Tut's tomb in 1914. Other archaeologists dismissed the idea. The tombs in the Valley of the Kings contained precious treasure, which made them targets for robbers. Most archaeologists believed that all the tombs in that region had either been discovered or looted. But Carter insisted he would find Tut in the hot, arid Valley of the Kings located close to the Nile River. Lord Carnarvon, a British earl, provided the money for Carter's search. After seven years, Carnarvon was ready to pull the funding because Carter had not made any discoveries. Finally, in early November 1922, steps to a sealed door were uncovered from the desert sand that had buried them for centuries.
On November 23, 1922, Carter broke through the sealed door and found a passage filled with rubble. He was worried that the grave had been robbed because there were artifacts on the ground that appeared to have been dropped. After clearing the passage, Carter came to another sealed door engraved with Tutankhamun's royal symbols. When he saw the markings, Carter knew they had found the young pharaoh's tomb. He was, however, still unsure what was left to find if grave robbers had discovered it long ago.
What Carter found was astonishing. Three large rooms were contained in the tomb: the antechamber, the annex, and the burial chamber of Tutankhamun. All three rooms were full of priceless treasure, including golden chariots, golden statues, perfume, jewelry, toys, and Tut's gold throne. Tut's coffin was surrounded by a huge golden shrine. In the pharaoh's burial chamber, Carter found a fleet of miniature ships. According to the Egyptian belief of Tut's era, the ships would have been needed to take him to the afterworld.
Carter and his team removed, tagged, and processed the artifacts found in King Tut's tomb. Carter's findings not only launched the legacy of King Tut, but they provided the world with an immeasurable amount of information about ancient Egypt.

List and explain the positive and negative qualities seen in Lady Macbeth
Sindrei [870]
There are many sides to Lady Macbeth, and although there are many more negative than positive qualities, I will try to list some of them nevertheless.
Negative: she is ruthless, and stops at nothing to achieve her goals. She wants her husband to become king, and isn't afraid to be an accomplice in a murder to get what she wants. She is manipulative, constantly controlling her husband to do what she wants him to do. 
Positive: I'd say that in the end, one of her positive qualities is her guilt - she feels guilty for all the murders she took part in, which shows that she is human after all, with conscience. I guess that her ambition could be both a positive and negative quality, because she is very strong and powerful.

How do you apply critical thinking techniques?<br> 200 word paragraph please
kap26 [50]

Answer:

First you want to ask basic questions. You want the reader or the listener to get involved with the topic. If you ask a question, they will get involved and want to listen more to find the answer. The next thing you wan to do is question basic assumptions. You want people to agree with what you’re trying to explain. The very next thing you want to do is be aware of your mental process. What this means is being mindful of your thoughts and feelings as the happen from time to time. Its like waking up to somebody mowing their lawn or seeing the sunshine bright or smelling the delicious smell of bacon first thing in the morning or even tasting fresh brewed coffee. The next thing you want to do is try reversing things. For example, instead of worrying about the problem in a situation, worry about the solution.
