The shortest ruler in ancient Egypt was Pharaoh Tutankhamun, who reigned for about 9 years from 1332 to 1323 BCE, ascending to the throne at a very young age. He became pharaoh around 8 or 9 years old and died when he was only about 18 or 19. His reign was marked by a return to traditional polytheism after the monotheistic worship of Aten during the reign of his predecessor, Akhenaten. Despite his brief rule, Tutankhamun is one of the most famous pharaohs, largely due to the discovery of his nearly intact tomb in 1922.
