Notes for Nefertiti
Nefetiti fikk 6 døtre med Akhenatens, to av de døde ved fødselen.
Nefertiti
Queen of Dynasty XVIII
Nefertiti was the Wife of Akhenaten during the Eighteenth Dynasty. Little is known about the early years of Nefertiti’s life, and scholars have contemplated whether she truly was of royal lineage. Evidence suggests she was wed to Akhenaten as the daughter of a high official during Amenhotep III’s reign, or of Amenhotep himself. Similarly, debate still remains as to whether or not Nefertiti was in fact the actual mother of Akhenaten, and his wife at the same time. The mystery of Nefertiti’s origins remain a large topic of debate.
Life within Akhenaten’s reign was far from being peaceful for the queen and king. Within the reign of Akhenaten, religious reform took place, which changed the scheme of Egyptian religion drastically. Leaving behind the old gods, and orienting the religious life of Egypt toward a triple theological structure, has made many Egyptologists consider the reign of Akhenaten the reign of heresy. Some scholars have contemplated Nefertiti’s role in the religious reform of Egypt, contemplating if it was Nefertiti who urged her husband toward the religious reform or if he did so under his own volition.
Little has been written about Nefertiti’s role with the king, however, from scribe texts, it is certain that she bore Akhenaten 6 daughters and no sons, and shared a near co-rulership with the king. Unfortunately, the lack of male sons left Akhenaten with no male royal heir to the throne. As a result, Akhenaten appointed an heir outside of the bloodline. Fifteen years after her appointment to the position of Queen of Memphis, and the Eighteenth Dynasty, Nefertiti mysteriously disappeared. Egyptologists have assumed that this was either due to banishment or her death. However, little evidence suggests that she actually died. Similarly, speculation exists as to whether she was the obscure pharaoh Nefernefuaten.
Nefertiti is perhaps one of the best known queens of Egypt who is depicted in more sculpture and artwork than even the King Akhenaten. Her beauty has captivated many artists, and is best portrayed in the famous bust shown above, found in the workshop of the sculptor named Thutmose.
