Author Description

Nefertiti, 1370 BC- 1330 BC, the great queen, is best known to us for her striking beauty. Her famous bust brought her to life and ever since its discovery in 1912 by German Archeologist Ludwig Borchardt; her image has been the face of Egypt. Most people know her solely based on the bust, but she is much more than just a pretty face. Nefertiti was a major player in a time of great upheaval in Egyptian history. She was on the forefront of a religious revolution that she and her husband, Akhenaten began. She was by his side from day one and was a devoted servant to this new religion that rocked Egypt to its core. Not much is known about the woman herself or her inner thoughts, so we will need to talk about her in a larger context. We will attempt to cover, ever so briefly, the life of this great Queen, Nefertiti, the Great Queen of Amarna.
