Tadukhipa (160 words)
After her father Tushratta came to the throne of the Mitanni, Tadukhipa was sent to Egypt to marry Amenhotep III and reassert the diplomatic alliance between the two nations.
Tadukhipa had arrived in or before the 36th regnal Year of Amenhotep III, some 26 years after her aunt Gilukhipa made the same journey.
Her husband did not live long after her marriage, and some have suggested that Kiya is a nickname for Tadukhipa, and that she married Akhenaten after the old king's death.
Nefertiti - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (1077 words)
Nefertiti's parentage is not known, but it has been conjectured that she may have been a daughter of later Pharaoh Ay and his wife Tey.
Depending on which reconstruction of the genealogy of the ancient Egyptian pharaohs is followed, her husband Akhenaten may have been the father or half-brother of the Pharaoh Tutankhaten (later called Tutankhamun).
As can be seen by the suggested identifications between Tadukhipa, Nefertiti, Smenkhkare and Kiya, the records of their time and their lives are largely incomplete, and the findings of both archaelogists and historians may develop new theories vis-à-vis Nefertiti and her precipitous exit from the public stage.
