Bones of the Boy-King: The Mysterious Ailment of the Pharaoh Siptah

Matthew D. Turner

Ever since the mummy of Pharaoh Siptah was examined in the early twentieth century, the remains of Siptah, a
young pharaoh of ancient Egypt, have been an object of curiosity. The etiology of the pharaoh’s unusually malformed
left leg has been theorized to have been the result of congenital clubfoot, poliomyelitis, or cerebral palsy. We conclude
that Siptah’s deformity was likely due to congenital clubfoot.
