Tales From the Tomb

Summary Two tiny coffins contain the mummies of two girls, by DNA test almost certain his baby daughters, not sacrifices, and lost shots at a future for his 18th dynasty. The like cause of death is incest, as their mother, his queen, was probably his full sister, like his 'history)wiped' father Achenathon's wife and his mother probably also was a sister. This incestuous practice of 'preserving royal blood' probably also accounts for his own painful infirmities, attested by various evidence from the treasure, such as tailored sandals and walking sticks. Yet the weakening of the empire during his father's religious revolution had weakened the empire, forcing him to reclaim Egypt's superpower status by war on his top-notch chariot, but may well have been killed on the battlefield, hence mummified even poorer then his hasty burial in a tomb probably switched from the fitting one by his successor Aye, a non-princely courtier, who was still wiped from memory like him, apparently all still too closely tainted by Akhenaton's cursed memory.
