Queen Nefertiti is one of the two most famous queen of ancient Egypt, Cleopatra another. Her beauty, revealed her famous limestone portrait busts – the most beautiful masterpieces of Egyptian sculpture – made him known throughout the world. Yet, despite her fame, historians are not unanimous about her origins. It seems to have been a deliberate attempt to ancient Egypt, to erase the memory of its existence due to reasons that will be elaborated in this article.
Nefertiti is a mysterious figure. Some say who he is or who his parents are unknown and that he was just a common man. Others have suggested that she was a Hittite princess or that she was the princess of the neighboring kingdom of Mittani, or the daughter of Ay is one of the leaders of the pharaoh. However, clarifying the matter would help to clarify other important aspects of ancient Egyptian civilization.
One aspect of genetics that seem to have not received the attention it deserves, you can help solve this mystery. This elongated skulls or long-headed heads that many members of the Eighteenth dynasty of Egypt had. One of the reasons that historians ignored this feature at first because some thought that this is just one element of the stylized art. Some believe that the elongated skull is not an unusual feature and prevail in some African and Nordic tribes. But here, it's not a question of a long skull that some Africans or ancient Norse would have. They are within the limits of normal human variation, although the longer side. Here is a skull shape that goes well beyond the normal human figure, the point is that biologists attribute of rare diseases, some even extraterrestrial sources. Studies have shown that this is a rare occurrence indeed. In some African tribes, such as Mangbetu and binding skull head Long Zande young, but the latter type strain produces a very different effect. In addition, studies Egyptian royal mummies proved conclusively that the royal Egyptian dolichocephalic head is not required as a result, but a genetic family. The skull shape is so pronounced that many initially thought that it was just an artistic feature until the actual mummies of these skulls were discovered. Some modern practitioners assumed that this could be as a result of deforming the rare disease. However, it is also excluded as the shared properties of family heritage. Research work by David Childress in Peru, Adriano Forgione in Malta and Andrew Collins (Andrew Collins Gods of Eden in London.. Headline Book, issued 1998th) led to greater knowledge of elongated skulls. The first is that this is a rare disorder that we have found since ancient times in other parts of the world. If they have the elongated skull belong to a certain race, which is now extinct it can not be said with certainty. Such skulls have been discovered not only in Egypt but also in Peru, Malta and the Mittani belt in Northern Iraq and Syria, and now it seems these skulls that have been associated with the royal or priestly classes. Except for Peru the other four locations in close geographical proximity therefore the possibility that all of them arise from the same genetic source could not be ruled out. The genetic source of the Peru skulls are the same, since there does not seem to be an old world origin of American civilizations.
Nefertiti was one such skull, and so the opportunity for him to become a commoner likely. The second speculation that she was a Hittite princess is out of the question with reference to available historical records. Rather, he seems Mittani king's daughter Princess Mittani Dashrath. The confusion has arisen because of the historical records of the Mittani would occasionally confused with Hittites. Both Hittites and Mittani belongs to the Indo-Aryan languages species.
were people of Mitanni Aryan descent, who ruled a vast kingdom largely Hurrian population in West Asia in the second millennium, a short historical periods, ie sometime after the 1500th It was led by a warrior aristocracy feudal state, which seems to have been the women in the royal men with horse and chariot racing and warfare. This training was provided in case you might have to make a decision intended when widowed. Such accounts can be found in the Puranas and Vedas, the ancient historical records of the community that the Mittani belonged to kings as well. The Rig Veda, the ancient scriptures of the rulers Mittani tells the story of a warrior queen Vishpla who lost a leg in battle, was fitted with iron prosthesis and returned to the battle. The Mittani kingdom in Syria was a stranger, and a short one lasting about 150 years. During the short reign has been established relationship with Egypt has left a significant mark in history. This is a mutually beneficial alliance, which made the Mittani to continue in foreign surroundings and provided a buffer against the Egyptians Hittite invasions. The kingdom of Mittani eventually weakened Hittites and returned to Syria around 1330 BC.
While they dominated the area, developed in-house close to the Royal Mittani peaceful relations with western neighbors, the house of the Egyptian royal marriages, as well as financial, military and religious associations. It has not been for some time as a family. It seems that there was some association between the priestly class as well. The daughter of King Thutmose IV Artatama married Akhenaten's grandfather. Son, Holy Shuttarna sent the early fourteenth century, married the daughter of Pharaoh in Egypt Kiluhepa Amenhotp III. And the king's daughter Dasharatha son Shuttarna, Tadukhipa Princess became the Queen of Akhenaten. and introduced horses and chariots of the Egyptian pharaohs in Egypt because of the relationship with the Mittanis.
The Amarna archaeological findings shed light on the relationship between the two royal families. In a letter to one of the Amarna written to Akhenaten's mother, Tiye, my sister, the king of Mitanni complains that Akhenaten has not sent gifts to his father promised, "I asked your husband for statues of solid cast gold, but his son sent a gilded statues wood. gold and dirt of the son of the country, why were they the source of such distress to your son that he did not give them to me? this is love? "Dushrath wrote instead Tiye Pharaoh himself, because it is much more comfortable writing to his sister as the king. The letter is hardly a diplomatic or royal letter. This is a family communication.
The origin of queen Tiye, Nefertiti as that is shrouded in controversy. It is quite possible that priests did not approve of the Egyptian family connection Mittanis. They had good reason. First of all was the introduction of foreign gods and orthodox customs to Egypt as a result of these foreign queens. Queen Tiye too has been recognized for her unorthodoxy like Nefertiti. Historians, however, admitted that it seems that the relationship between Tiye and Nefertiti. Volt. Tiye was Nefertiti's aunt – the sister of his father Dashrath. The Amarna letters show the close family ties Dashrath and Tiye. Another reason for the discomfort of the clergy was that before the emergence of the Mittanis bride priestly clan often delivered to the pharaohs. This helped them to maintain their power in Egypt, but this new source of royal brides have been the source of much anguish to the priestly clan. You might reply, claiming that the new brides were not royal but a common tribal source, managed to capture the neighboring kingdom. The latter resulted from assumptions that are not familiar with Mittani royal roots, the history of which perhaps longer than even the Egyptian civilization as sacred texts, the Vedas.
Some historians have claimed that Tiye was the daughter Yuaa, mother of a priest Mittani frequency Tuaa was the royal descent of the royal family Mittani. If the latter is the case, then it would be Tiye a cousin of King Dasharath blood sister instead. However, the entire communication between informality and Tiye Dasharath with historical records indicating that the Mittani kings had provided the Egyptian pharaohs, queens of their daughter suggests that Tiye was a blood brother Dashrath, the Mittani Princess Kiluhepa. In both cases, the Mittani royal origin of Tiye and by extension that of Nefertiti seems little doubt. Both bore resemblance as it turned out, his own sculptures. Physical resemblance to the relatives of the Egyptian population Mittani and it seems that inbreeding has intensified to the point that even Nefertiti and her husband were remarkably alike. Compared with people of other races, Akhinaten a feminine and some suggested that there was no sexual organs, because the naked statue presented to him without him. Akhinaten father of many children and there is no statue of reproductive organs are more likely as a result of modesty. The ancient Egyptians were not open to male nudity as the Greeks were the future of civilization. In reality Akhinaten may very well hung. However, there is a possibility that the sex chromosomes were XXY XY instead, the result of inbreeding. The possibility therefore arises because However, speculation that the elongated skull primarily borrowed by a feature on the X chromosome, and that the presence of males probably just an extra X be a confirmation of this last hypothesis wait for further developments in genetic science.
Betsy Bryan, a professor of Egyptian art and archeology at Johns Hopkins, found a statue of Tiye, mother of Akhinaten, the temple of Mut. When the statue was removed it revealed itself as a queen of Amenhotep III, whose name appears several times in the statue's crown. Schwappach-Shirriff curator of the Rosicrucian Egyptian Museum in California, told Discovery News that significant that the statue was found buried in the church. "This shows that he was indeed strong religious ties, they found a church," he explained. Women at that time did not serve as priestesses, but both Bryan and Schwappach-Shirriff think the evidence emerging, such as this statue indicates that at least some women may have been more central to certain Egyptian religions than previously thought. This new role of women in Egypt is likely due to the fact that the foreign origin of Mittani queens.
The Mittani royal family seems to be the source from which elongated skulls arrived in the Egyptian royal family. Thutmose III Thutmose IV's grandfather Akhinaten had no such skull as it turned out, the statues, Luxor and Cairo Museums but his grandmother Queen Mutemwiya, King Thutmose IV Grand Royal spouse and daughter of the royal Artatama, Kings Mittani probably yes. The Mittani Egyptian queens were given new names after marriage that the pharaohs. The name change is that the Pharaohs had more than one wife led to confusion as to which is which. Add to this the propaganda spread by the priests, who are the main scribes obscured by time and history becomes certain. Akhinaten Pharaoh, who had a very elongated head, HAVE this property is the father, mother or grandmother. His daughters and his son Tutankhamen had Kaponya well. There was a significant inbreeding in the royal family, and it tends to be a genetic trait. The elongated skull is probably a common feature of the Egyptian royal household and Mittani, and this would have led them to believe it was a family. Akhinaten had two wives Kiya and Nefretiti and scientists are not sure which of the two is the Mittani Princess. However, if one were to go to the elongated skull, it must Nefretiti who Mittani princess. Add to this the fact that he is a warrior queen who has been shown to participate in chariot races and wielding weapons. It was a typical Queen of Egypt. He was seen in prominent positions Amarna art, and can not see the warlike position of the Pharaoh – seizing prisoners hair and breaking the skull with a mace. ancient social order maintained by ruthless punishments. This is very unlike Egyptian princesses but not unexpected Mittani the Aryan one.
In the old days it was not uncommon for queens and princesses personal nurse who left the princesses to adulthood often accompany them to a new home after marriage. The nurse often played the role of a surrogate mother if the real mother was not available. If you are a princess come to the kingdom of Mittani, it is expected that she not be sent alone to a foreign country, but with a personal maids and nurses. This is the least royal father do when sending his daughter to another country. Would such an accompanying nurse Akhineten Mittani the wife of Egypt? A lady in the palace claim that nurse. He was the boilers, he never claimed to be the Queen Mother, but do not claim to nurse. Boilers have also been known to marry their daughter was born Mutnodmjet a prominent Egyptian Aye. Nefertiti would have been regarded as the daughter of the boiler in a brotherly manner and an inscription reading "Mutnedjmet, then he is living Re forever, sister of the King's Great Wife is therefore clear that Nefertiti looked at her nanny's daughter sister There is also no doubt that it was Mutnedjmet.. Aye's daughter, because there are outstanding representations of the two together. the fact that Nefertiti was a personal nurse, who is well known in Egypt, it is also evidence against him to be a common or unknown background. If it was alleged that some of Nefertiti background is not known, despite the fact that the nurse is still present as the wife of a prominent personality indicates that a deliberate attempt was made to ignore Nefertiti background. Aye became pharaoh in a later, after the death of the last heir of the eighteenth . dynasty
there are other bits of evidence that support the theory that Nefertiti was Mittani Princess Nefertiti. beauty, who came to report the princess away. During the reign of the Aryan Akhinaten probably influenced his mother and his wife tried to create a new religion, the monotheistic worship of the sun symbol of the power of God to the priesthood in complete shock. This experiment resulted in open rebellion of the priestly class.
a striking resemblance to the portraits of Nefertiti and her husband exchanged a few young researchers suggests that he was half or even a full brother. Brother and sister marriages were common in Egypt. But we know that the historical records that this was not the case. Rather, if it was the princess daughter Dushratta and would aunt of the mother and grandmother of the brother of the grandmother of the king, the connection is even closer than cousins, and there would be nothing special about that resemble each other like brother and sister.
their reign was brief. Akhinaten ruled only 17 years old and a few years after his death in 1336 BC, Neferititi died, apparently killed, struck back in an unguarded moment. Tut ruled for about ten years before his death in 1322 BC, the Egyptian vizier Yes, perhaps the de facto ruler, King Tut initially as a puppet on the throne. As Tut grew up it is likely that he, like his father, was beginning to have ideas of their own. He mentors especially Yeah, she could not bear another heretical by organized murder and poisoning or other device. Aye is portrayed as a man who had a fatherly way Nefertiti, but this is just a cunning front that Aye hold the foot in the palace. Aye proclaimed herself pharaoh after the death of Tut since no other heirs remained. He is a shadowy figure who might be organized at the end of the eighteenth dynasty of Egypt in order to gain power. He died within three years from 1319. A commoner Horemheb followed Aye to the throne and reigned for 27 years, obliterating every record of Nefertiti and Akhenaten that he could. The old orthodoxy was restored. Akhenaten's enemies soon smashed statues, demolished temples and started to erase all memory of him and Nefertiti from Egypt historical record. In the eighteenth Egyptian dynasty ended with King Tut. Two other outside rulers – Yes, and Horemheb are shown grouped in the absence of the eighteenth dynasty for better placement.
Archives can be found in the Hittite capital of Hattusa in Anatolia indicate that Nefrititi wrote a desperate letter to the king Hittite says that her husband is dead and begged her to send him one of his sons that he had not been, that marries the "slave". and who will rule Egypt as the king. The letter indicated that Neferititi maintained reigns in power as long as he lived. An Egyptian princess was more likely to seek closer alliance. It is also a written proof that the eighteenth dynasty regarded themselves as a class, except that the other Egyptians in the past as a slave class and believed in marrying within royalty rather than outside it. If Nefertiti is indeed a common Egyptian origin than such a statement is likely it. The Hittite king obliged to send his son, but down and killed on the border, resulting in a bloody war with the son of way. This indicates that the plane was held in the palace at the time. There was little except Aye could be the secret communication. Only Mittani princess would have dared to write that the Hittite king will be a proposal of marriage and only an insider like Aye know.
Nefertiti did not behave like a commoner or a person anything less than the royal family from the start. He directed the Akhinaten side while he was alive and after his death Aton added to the suffix to his name, decorated men's clothes and took over the kingdom as a Pharaoh true to the tradition of Vedic Aryans. The royal heirs Smenkhkare and Tutankhamen were too young to become kings right away, but it is likely to be regarded orthodoxy as the real Pharaohs. Historians are not sure whether Tutankhamun was the son of Queen Nefertiti or Kiya but it was probably the latter, because one of Nefertiti's daughter was married to Tutankhamun and it seems reasonable that half-brothers. Both Smenkhkare and Tutankhamun had a royal skull. Tut was both a son and son-in-law Nefertiti.
There is no evidence of any historical records show that Nefertiti was not Mittani princess, and as long as he lived, he ruled like a warrior queen fighters loyal to his race descended. The Pharaohs of Egypt to a divine suffix to their name. The suffix declared them as representatives of the Divine God that has become part of their name. Like a princess Tadukhipa Queen Nefertiti and adopted the name Nefretari, "the beautiful one has arrived." As a Pharaoh she changed her name to NeferNeferaten – a beautiful, beautiful is one of the Sun God. "Over the last few years of his hidden tomb and damaged mummy was discovered in the Valley of the Kings, to restore the recognition he deserved. The present study restores the recognition of his origins in ancient Egyptian scribes tried so hard to erase the Egyptian monuments. The experiments were understandable. he was a foreigner and an equal partner young husband trying to destroy the ancient religion of Egypt and replace it with a new one. it is hoped that this study will contribute to the restoration of its rightful place in the history of human civilization.
