| dc.description | Overall view showing back and decorative leopard heads; Objects excavated at el-Amarna associated with Tutankhamun are meagre, but one object securely dated to the beginning of his reign is the 'golden throne' (Cairo, Egyptian Museum, JE 62028) from his Theban tomb. Its decoration pictures Tutankhamun and his queen in the style typical of the last phase of the Amarna period. The radiant sun disc of the Aten (the favoured god of Akhenaten) makes its final appearance on this monument.
