One myth surrounding this figure was thoroughly debunked in a 2002 paper by Mark Nelson. A second myth surrounding this figure was disproven after a CT scan showed that this figure suffered from a broken leg, but that a bone fragment discovered by 1968 x-rays was likely postmortem damage. The second of those myths claimed that this man's advisor Ay murdered him with a blow to the (*) head, while the first myth was concocted by newspaper reporters after Lord Carnarvon and several other people tangentially associated with this figure's excavation died. For 10 points, name this pharaoh whose largely intact tomb was discovered by Howard Carter in 1922.
