MEDICAL EVIDENCE:
h Said study of tut, confirming that Aki was his daddy AND which mummy he was. Also whom Tut’s mum and Aki’s mum was.
h “While the body of King Tut's mother has finally been revealed, her identity remains a mystery. DNA studies show that she was the daughter of Amenhotep III and Tiye and thus was the full sister of her husband, Akhenaten.” eww
h John Darnell: Egyptologist, Yale University: “Most important result” of the study was confirming that appearance not b/c of genetic deformities
RELIGIOUS EXPLANATION:
Akenhaten is odd in his appearance because he belongs to the time of creation, not because he was physically different," said Darnell, who also did not participate in the DNA research.
h "People will now need to consider Akenhaten as a thinker, and not just as an Egyptian Quasimodo.”
h Hawass And team conclude that woman and man feat= religious and political reasons.
h “The poems said of him ‘you are the man, and you are the woman’, so artists put the picture of man and a woman in his body”
h In his book Tutankhamun's Armies, Darnell proposes that Akhenaten's androgynous appearance in art was an attempt to associate himself with Aten, the original creator god in Egyptian theology, who was neither male nor female
