NEFERTITI’s SISTER true Egyptian Story

Author Name: Sachin Srivastava, Lakshmi Kumari | Format: Paperback | Genre : Letters & Essays | Other Details

Over the city of Thebes in the heart of Egypt lay an opaque, thick veil of mist. Darkness had spread in the early evening in the large complex of the Amun temple district.
Hetepaten, the high priest of Aten, came out of one of the magnificent mud-brick buildings and walked along the road to the east. He passed the holy pond, where the water in this early hour reflected the gloomy, unclear sky like a dark soup. He trotted the sandy path towards the Gempaaten, the newly built temple of Aten, which was located a little outside. Over his cloak shined a golden pendant in the shape of the ankh-sign on his chest.

The haze of the night would not disperse over Thebes that day.  Junatonef, the son of Hetepaten, followed the same path as his father, walking the sandy way from the Amun temple complex towards the Gempaaten.

Nefertiti, also called Neferneferuaten-Nefertiti, (flourished 14th century BCE), queen of Egypt and wife of King Akhenaton (formerly Amenhotep IV; reigned c. 1353–36 BCE), who played a prominent role in the cult of the sun god known as the Aton. 
Akhenaton & Nefertiti under the sun god Aton Nefertiti’sparentage is unrecorded, but, as her name translates as “A Beautiful Woman Has Come,” early Egyptologists believed that she must have been a princess from Mitanni (Syria). There is strong circumstantial evidence, however, to suggest that she was the Egyptian-born daughter of the courtier Ay, brother of Akhenaton’s mother, Tiy. Although nothing is known of Nefertiti’s parentage, she did have a younger sister, Mutnodjmet.
