    During the Middle Kingdom period, chariots were indeed discovered. This period in ancient Egyptian history, which lasted from around 2050 to 1710 BCE, saw the use of chariots become more prevalent. Chariots were important in warfare and were also used for ceremonial and royal purposes. Archaeological evidence, such as chariot burials and depictions of chariots in artwork, supports the fact that chariots were present during the Middle Kingdom. Therefore, the statement "Chariots were discovered in the Middle Kingdom" is true.

    Correct Answer

    Explanation
    King Tut became a pharaoh at the age of nine. This is because his father, Akhenaten, died when Tutankhamun was around eight years old, and he ascended to the throne shortly after. As a young pharaoh, Tutankhamun's reign was largely influenced by his advisors and regents, as he was too young to make decisions on his own. His reign lasted for approximately ten years before his untimely death at the age of 18.

    • Polygon

    • Both A and B

    Correct Answer
    A. Both A and B
    Explanation
    The word "Both A and B" is the correct answer because the Ancient Egyptians were both monotheistic and polytheistic. They believed in the existence of multiple gods and goddesses, which is polytheism, but they also worshiped a single god, Aten, during the reign of Pharaoh Akhenaten, which is monotheism. Therefore, they can be described as both monotheistic and polytheistic.
