_Discovering Tut - Pure Hindi Summary For UP Board_
यह कहानी टुट के बारे में है। टुट मिस्र (Egypt) का सबसे युवा राजा था।
टुट 3300 साल पहले मिस्र का राजा था। वह सिर्फ 19 साल की उम्र में मर गया था। उसकी मृत्यु कैसे हुई, यह आज तक रहस्य है। कुछ लोग कहते हैं उसकी हत्या हुई थी।
उसकी कब्र (Tomb) की खोज 1922 में हॉवर्ड कार्टर ने की थी। 3000 साल तक उसकी कब्र में कोई नहीं गया था। कब्र में बहुत सारा सोना और खजाना था।
अब 2005 में वैज्ञानिकों ने उसकी लाश (Mummy) की फिर से जांच की। टुट की ममी पर CT Scan किया गया। यह रात के 6 बजे किया गया क्योंकि ममी को दिन में निकालने से गर्मी से नुकसान हो सकता था।
CT Scan मशीन को रेत में फंसने से बचाने के लिए लिफ्ट से निकाला गया। 20 मिनट तक CT Scan हुआ। 1700 से ज्यादा फोटो लिए गए।
CT Scan से पता चला कि टुट की छाती में दिल नहीं था, और उसकी खोपड़ी में कुछ गड़बड़ थी। वैज्ञानिक जानना चाहते थे कि टुट मरा कैसे।
टुट के परिवार में भी कई रहस्य थे। उसके पिता अखेनातेन (Akhenaten) थे जो बहुत अजीब राजा थे। उन्होंने सूर्य देवता (Aton) की पूजा शुरू की थी। टुट की माता भी रहस्य थी।
टुट ने 9 साल की उम्र में राजगद्दी संभाली और 19 साल में मर गया। उसने सिर्फ 9 साल राज किया।
कहानी सिखाती है कि विज्ञान से हम इतिहास के रहस्यों को सुलझा सकते हैं।
