CAIRO, May 5 (Xinhua) -- The last military chariot of King Tutankhamun has been transferred to the Grand Egyptian Museum (GEM) on Saturday, Egyptian Minister of Antiquities Khaled Anany said.

A total of six historic chariots were collected from museums across Egypt, including Luxor Museum and the Egyptian Museum in Tahrir Square, to be displayed at the GEM, Anany said at a press conference.

"A total of 4,800 out of 5,398 pieces of King Tutankhamun's artifacts were moved to the GEM," he added.

The GEM, located on the Giza plateau, is set to be soft open later this year, with 70 percent of its construction already finished, Anany said.

Anany added that "all belongings of King Tut will be displayed in an attractive way by the end of current year on 7,500 square meters."

Tutankhamun was an Egyptian pharaoh who ruled from 1332-1323 BC. Just nine years after taking the throne, he died at the age of about 19. His death was a source of great debate.

He was buried in the Valley of Kings by the River Nile opposite Thebes.

His tomb discovered in 1915 was considered the best preserved of all findings in the Valley of Kings.
