Coffin of Pharaoh Akenaten in Egyptian Museum, Cairo, Egypt. This coffin was unearthed from a tomb in Valley of Kings, designated as Tomb KV55. Edward R. Ayrton discovered the tomb in 1907 while working for Theodore M. Davis, a wealthy American. The discovery of the tomb has been shrouded in controversy since its inception, initially believed to be the burial site of Queen Tiye. DNA analysis now proves that remains found in the tomb belong to Akenaten himself. This DNA evidence also confirms that Akhenaten was Tutankhamen's (King Tut) father. Face and name on coffin have been deliberately erased from cartouche, attempting to condemn the "heretic" pharaoh in afterlife and erase his memory. Information about the tomb can be found online. A scan of another artifact from the tomb is available for viewing. This image was created using 138 photographs (Canon EOS Rebel T5i) with Metashape 1.3 software.
