The mystery surrounding Ramses III who is an ancient Egyptian pharaoh’s death was solved by CT scan proving that his throat had been slit open, according to the Sun.
Ramses III is thought to have reigned as the second Pharaoh of the 20th Dynasty of ancient Egypt from around 1186 to 1155 BC.
His death was often debated amongst experts because scriptures stated that one of his wives and high ranking officials had tried to assassinate him in a plot referred to as the Harem Conspiracy.
This mystery was laid to rest when experts noticed that the mummy’s neck was heavily bandaged and a CT scan soon revealed that Ramses III had a deep and wound across his throat.
The wound was so deep in fact that it cut right back to the neck vertebrae.
Ramses’ wife Queen Tiye and her son Pentaweret were heavily implicated in the plot because Tiye is said to have wanted to put her son on the throne.
