Anjesenamon was the third of the six daughters of Akhenaten and the Great Royal Wife, Nefertiti. Her original name, Ankesenamen, means She Who Lives for Amun.
Ankhesenamun was the third of Nefertiti's daughters but is best known as the wife of the famous pharaoh King Tutankhamun, who was the king of Egypt 3500 years ago.
There is no doubt that the royal couple was in love. Several objects found in Tutankhamun's tomb by Howard Carter depict the couple. The most famous is the gilded throne that has a panel on the back showing the royal couple, but the panel on an ivory chest is also very nice.
Although Queen Ankhesenamun obviously loved Tutankhamun, he was not actually her first husband: he may have been her third. According to the tradition of the time, it is widely believed that Ankhesenamun was first married to her father, Pharaoh Akhenaton. She may then have been married to a little-known pharaoh named Smenkhkare. After Tutankhamun's death, she also married his successor, Pharaoh Ay. In short, she may have been married to four different kings, which for a lady who died at the age of 30 is quite an accomplishment.
Perhaps it is also an indication that she had bad luck: she buried three husbands. The latest DNA study of Tutankhamun's family published in the Journal of the American Medical Association suggests that a mummy found in the Valley of the Kings may belong to Ankhesenamun. The mummy, known as KV21A, was found without inscriptions or grave goods and has been identified as probably the mother of two of Tutankhamun's sons which, by inference, suggests that she is Ankhesenamun. Her misfortune has continued in death. Ankhesenamun was probably a rather attractive woman. When mummy KV21A was found, she had a head with long, glossy black hair. Her had has now tragically disappeared. A century ago, macabre mummy parties were fashionable and she was probably an unwanted protagonist in one during which her head was unwrapped and then burned or thrown away.
The latest DNA study also shows that she had a severe club foot and would have found it very difficult to walk, and probably had pain when she walked.
Perhaps her last misfortune was her fourth husband, Pharaoh Ay. He was a very old man, old enough to have been her grandfather. In fact, he probably was her grandfather. For many years it was suspected that Ay had murdered Tutankhamun. Today, it is not thought that Tutankhamun was murdered, although a letter from a queen of the time to the king of the Hittites clearly Although a letter from the Queen saying clearly states that her husband was killed, they were trying to force her to marry
Whatever it was, after her marriage to Ay to ensure his dynastic succession, Ankhesenamun quickly faded from sight and was never heard from again. It is believed that she died within months of this marriage. Was she murdered? Sadly, if the mummy KV21A really is Ankhesenamun, we will probably never know, as she is in very poor condition.
We have a life full of misfortunes, but Ankhesenamun for a time had a happy marriage with Tutankhamun.
