"Beauty has arrived" or otherwise Nefertiti.

Nefertitis or Nofretete was the Egyptian queen, the wife of Pharaoh Akhenaten, during the reign of the 18th dynasty. She lived from 1370 p.n.e. to 1333 BC

In many ways, she placed herself on the pedestal of a perfect royal personality, and beauty is by no means all that adorned that special woman. Nefertiti is one of the most amazing female figures in the history of Egypt.

There were many important queens, but among all of them, Nefertiti really stands out as someone very special. They say that no one surpassed Nefertiti's power.

Nefertiti was very young when she married Pharaoh Akhenaten. She was related to his mother Thea. She gave birth to six daughters, Meritaton, Maketaton, Anhesenpaaton, Neferneferuaton, Neferneferure and Setepenre, who were painted together with their parents on numerous reliefs. At the same time, Nefertiti is shown in the position of co-ruler, which was almost unthinkable until then. The couple was often depicted kissing, holding their daughters in their arms or mourning the death of one of their daughters.

She grew up in a harem, married a pharaoh, gave birth to six children, and carried out a revolution that changed Egypt forever. With her husband, she took the people out of the old capital and built a stunning city in the heart of the desert. For some, she was a religious fanatic, a conspirator, a traitor. Others saw in her the heroine who made the greatest sacrifice to save her country. She was the queen of riddles, the queen of magic, the queen of love, the queen of jealousy, the queen of revenge.

The empire danced on the verge of collapse. To save Egypt, Nefertiti turned her back on everything she loved, even her god. Nefertiti inherited the empire in the process of disintegration and soon took the lead. He protects himself first, then his dynasty. So she married her daughter Ankesenamon to Tutankhamun's stepson.

Events after that go unnoticed ...

Nefertiti led a special life. Girl-bride, queen, goddess on earth, pharaoh, heretic. A revolutionary who tried to transform Egypt, but failed, but threw her country into a whirlpool that may have led to her death. Amarna was dismantled stone by stone after her death. All the temples she built were reduced to dust.

Nefertiti still remains a great enigma of Egypt's past, because someone made a good effort to erase every trace of its existence and rule.
