Description

nefertiti was a queen of the 18th dynasty of ancient egypt, chief wife of pharaoh amenophis iv, better known as achenaton. nefertiti and her husband became known for the religious revolution, in which they worshiped only one god, aton, or the sun disk. akhenaten and nefertiti were responsible for creating a new religion that altered the forms of religion within egypt. with her husband, she reigned in what was the most prosperous period in the history of ancient egypt. some historians believe that nefertiti reigned for a time as neferneferuaten after her husband's death and before tutankhamun's succession, such identification is still the subject of debate today.
