... By tomb design, it is more likely KV 62 was a noble's tomb, possibly Ay's, which has been suggested. The layout argues for this, when compared to say, the...
Yes, I was aware that the traditional thought was that it was originally a tomb designed for Aye, the uncle of Nefertiti [in some theories], although to me it ...
... Not really. KV 48 (Tomb of Amenemopet), who was vizier to Amenhotep II, was far smaller than KV 62, and had only one large room, 17 X 10 feet. ... Since...
After seeing just what went into a burial chamber, it Tut's can be used as a standard, I have to wonder just who committed the robberies? They just could not...
The tomb had been robbed at least twice only a short time after burial of the king. Both entrances made by the robbers were in the antechamber and none into...
Jane, By Carter's estimation some 60% of the jewelry was missing and all of the oils/perfumes. The only exceptions were those items within the shrines. The...
I believe I already stated some of what you are repeating...and I was quoting from Carter, the Metropolitan Museum, and the Chicago Oriental Inst. as far as...
I've read many texts and papers on this...and it seems that everyone in this particular social science has their own hypothesis or idea/opinion concerning the ...
But Jane, If they made it into the Treasury, they made it into the crypt. The "Treasury" opens off the crypt i.e. "Burial Chamber". What they didn't get...
Jane, Some months ago I asked about the shrine. I was wondering if the shrine could have been placed in the tomb because it was no longer needed since it was...
I just read that some of the coffins found in KV 63 are those of children. If this does turn out to be an "Amarna Cache" it is pretty certain that some of them...
Didn't they also find some 'unknown' artifacts in a secret cupboard at the place where Carnarvon had lived not too many yrs. ago? These had been taken for ...
Yes...I think I've already mentioned the fact that this miniature shrine was an ancient throwback to what the original shrines looked like...predynastic and ...
Well, first of all who knows what they consider as 'a child'... girls matured at an early age in AE. And, if this is truely 'a child' then Kiya certainly...
I saw a TV program on Tut and one of the people they interviewed is the latest Earl. He showed the cupboard and the contents. It was less than you'd think....
Hi Jane, You got it. I was just having a flashback of something I saw on the show, "Black Adder". In one episode Black Adder was married to the "Infanta of...
Thanks for the info. Wasn't too sure about it...heard it long ago... of course the 'media hype' made it sound like a veritable 'treasure trove'!.... Did do...
I suppose they had politically arranged marriages, too. It is thought that she was Nubian or partly ...just a guess but she was associated through her mother...
... As she is the acknowledged daughter of Yuya and Thuya (by Amenhptpe III, and by her parents), neither of whom is Nubian, I would doubt this theory,...
I think the theory that Tiyi was Nubian was first proposed soon after the famous wooden head that is now in Berlin was found. The color of the wood was...
Your writers' hypotheses are no better or accurate ...or proveable than anyone elses... Both Yuya and Thuya ['Tuya'] were of the noble class, as most who...
I don't believe any DNA has ever been done, but archs. found the remnants of the pyramid complex and mortuary temple of King Intef VII, just outside the...
It was a hypothesis...along with many others...but the connections between Amenhotep III, Akmim, and the Medjhai can't be ignored. I suppose there are those...
... Far more provable that yours, I think. Mertz, Robins and Troy performed some extensive research on this issue, and concluded that the "heir princess"...
... What, if anything, would this mean to the Taos being descended from him, though? The earliest royal burial in the Valley of the Kings is that of Thutmose...
<<Is anything written in the Bible about Egypt, for instance the Exodus, true?>> That is an EXTREMELY controversial question. If the moderator will allow, I ...
Since you cite no proof other than one group of three MEN, why should I be asked for 'proof' of mine? I gave you several different urls which give other ...
Other than the bible, there is no tangible proof that it happened, nor that there was anyone actually named 'Moses' [which means 'boy' or 'boy of' in ancient ...
