| In 1923, the world was fascinated with news of the discovery of the tomb of the Egyptian pharaoh Tutankhamen. |
| I propose that this pharaoh is not Nefertiti, but quite a different person altogether. |
| The Ramesseum, a mortuary temple, contains a sixty-six foot tall seated statue of the pharaoh. |
| It created a fascination for Egyptology and for a pharaoh who died as a teenager. |
| The pharaoh concluded that Phrygian, an older language spoken in a part of what is modern Turkey, must be the original language. |
| They depict the pharaoh, or rather the pharaoh's ka, in a striding pose and holding a mace in one hand and a long staff in the other. |
