Wikipedia

  1. Nefertiti

    Neferneferuaten Nefertiti () (c.  1370 – c. 1330 BC) was a queen of the 18th Dynasty of Ancient Egypt, the great royal wife of Pharaoh Akhenaten. Nefertiti and her husband were known for a radical change in national religious policy, in which they promoted a form of proto-monotheism centred on the sun god Aten. With her husband, she reigned at what was arguably the wealthiest period of ancient Egyptian history. Some scholars believe that Nefertiti ruled briefly as Neferneferuaten after her husband's death and before the ascension of Tutankhamun, although this identification is a matter of ongoing debate. If Nefertiti did rule as Pharaoh, her reign was marked by the fall of Amarna and relocation of the capital back to the traditional city of Thebes.She was made famous by her bust, now in Berlin's Neues Museum. The bust is one of the most copied works of art of ancient Egypt. It was attributed to the sculptor Thutmose, and it was found in his workshop.

Examples of NEFERTITI in a Sentence

  1. El Damati:

    When we find Nefertiti, I think it will be more important than the discovery of King Tutankhamun himself.

  2. Another British archaeologist:

    I had no preconceived notion that Nefertiti was buried here. To be honest, for some time, I fought the conclusion because it seemed so extraordinary, but that is where the evidence seems to be pointing.

  3. Another British archaeologist:

    Without all this distracting color you can see all sort of things. You can see lines that indicate corners of cut walls, and these are the things that I noticed first, if I'm right, this is simply part of the entrance to the tomb of Nefertiti. The tomb, I think, continues beyond this wall. There will be a burial chamber beyond there.

  4. Another British archaeologist:

    My feeling is this is a tomb, originally made for a queen, which was adapted for the burial of a queen who had become a pharaoh, the pharaoh (dressed as a mummy) in question looks to be Nefertiti and the person burying Nefertiti appears to be Tutankhamun.

  5. El Damati:

    I hope we find Nefertiti but I doubt it. I can't say it's a big probability, it could be Nefertiti, it could be Kia (Tutankhamun's alleged mother), it could be other members of the family of Tutankhamun. Let us wait for the results at the end.
