Description
English: Left profile view of the skull found in tomb KV55.

Image derived from Grafton Elliot Smith's "The Royal Mummies" (Plate XXXVI), which was first published in 1912. The author died in 1937 so the book/image is in the public domain.

Recent genetic tests have conclusively demonstrated that this individual was the father of Tutankhamun. The JAMA eSupplement from Feb. 17, 2010 concludes tha "the results demonstrate that the mummy in KV55 is the son of Amenhotep III and father of Tutankhamun, leading to the assumption (also supported by the radiological findings) that the mummy can be identified as Akhenaten." (eSupplement, p.3).
