根据以下资料,回答题:
New evidence of a sick, deprived population working under harshconditions contradicts earlier images of wealth and abundance from the artrecords of the ancient Egyptian city of Tell el-Amarna, a study has found.Tell el-Amarna was the capital of ancient Egypt during the reign of the pharaoh (法老) Akhenaten, who abandoned most of Egypt's old gods in favor of the Aten sun disk andbrought in a new and more expressive style of art.Akhenaten, who ruled Egypt between 1379 and 1362BC, built and lived in Tell el-Amarna in central Egypt for 15 years.The city was largely abandoned shortlyafter his death and the ascendance of the famous boy king Tutankhamun to the throne.Studies on the remains of ordinary ancient Egyptians in a cemetery in Tell el-Amarna showed thatmany of them suffered from anem/a (贫血症 ), fractured bones, stunted growth and high juvenilemortality rates, according to professors Barry Kemp and Jerome Rose, who led the research.Rose, a professor of anthropology (人类学) in the University of Arkansas in the United States, saidadults buried in the cemetery were probably brought there from other parts of Egypt."This means that wehave a period of deprivation in Egypt prior to the Amarna phase.So maybe things were not so good for theaverage Egyptian and maybe Akhenaten said we have to change to make things better," he said.Kemp, director of the Amarna Project which seeks in part to increase public knowledge of Tell el-Amarna and surrounding region, said little attention has been given to the cemeteries of ordinary ancient Egyptians.Rose displayed pictures showing spinal (脊柱) injuries among teenagers, probably because of accidents during construction work to build the city.The study showed that anemia ran at 74 percent among children and teenagers, and at 44 percentamong adults, Rose said.The average height of men was 159 cm (5 feet 2 inches) and 153 cm among women."Adult heights are used as an indicator for overall standard of living," he said."Short statures(身长) reflect a diet deficient in protein...People were not growing to their full potential."

What is the findings of the study mentioned in the passage? A.The ancient Tell el-Amarna was famous for its art records.
B.The artistic exhibition of ancient Tell el-Amarna was trustworthy.
C.The art records of Tell el-Amarna showed ancient Egyptians' real life.
D.Life was really tough for average Egyptians in ancient Tell el-Amarna.
