'''[[Tutankhamun]]''', commonly referred to as '''King Tut''', was an ancient Egyptian pharaoh who was the last of his royal family to rule during the end of the 18th Dynasty during the New Kingdom of Egyptian history.
'''[[Lilith]]''' is a female figure in Mesopotamian and [[Judaism|Judaic]] mythology, theorized to be the first wife of Adam or a primordial [[demon]]. She is thought to be mentioned in the [[Bible|Biblical]] Book of Isaiah, and in Late Antiquity in Mandaean mythology and Jewish mythology sources from 500 CE onward.


His names—Tutankhaten and Tutankhamun—are thought to mean "Living image of Aten" and "Living image of [[Amun-Ra|Amun]]", with Aten replaced by Amun after Akhenaten's death. A small number of Egyptologists, believe the translation may be incorrect and closer to "The-life-of-Aten-is-pleasing" or reads as "One-perfect-of-life-is-Aten".
Lilith appears in various concepts and localities that give partial descriptions of her. She is mentioned in the Babylonian Talmud (Eruvin 100b, Niddah 24b, Shabbat 151b, Baba Bathra 73a), in the ''Book of Adam and Eve'' as Adam's first wife, and in the [[Zohar]] as "a hot fiery female who first cohabited with man." Many traditional rabbinic authorities, including Maimonides and Menachem Meiri, reject the existence of Lilith.


Tutankhamun restored the Ancient [[Egyptian religion]] after its dissolution by his father, enriched and endowed the priestly orders of two important cults and began restoring old monuments damaged during the previous Amarna period. He moved his father's remains to the [[Valley of the Kings]] as well as relocating the capital from Akhetaten back to Thebes.
