Who was Akhenaten and when did he live?
Yes…this is not Neferiti but rather Meritaten/Merytaten the oldest daughter of Akhenaten. It was her hair lock that was found in Tutankhamen’s tomb because she was his mother. Her raised hand shows that she was a Queen. Meritaten’s titles include Great Royal Wife, which can indicate marriage to her father. A certain Akenkeres (Ankhkheperure Neferneferuaten) was a “King’s daughter” and ruled Egypt for twelve years and one month. We also get several small hints from Donald Redford (Egypt, Canaan, and Israel) on page 445, where he states that Meret-neit, in the year 627 BC, besought the divine healer “Amenophis son of Hapu”, to release her from her eye ailment. We know that Amenhotep son of Hapu held office under Amenhotep III and Akhenaten. Amenhotep son of Hapu Udjahorresnet Now lets go back to Physician Udja Hor Resenet, the eye doctor who was mad at Amasis. Physician Udja Hor Resenet, son of Atemirdis a priest of Sais, was the counsellor who helped Cambyses II. Udja Hor Resenet/Wedj
