readx;? With his encouragement. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Egyptian literature and art opened up a new situation that had never been seen before: breaking through the stereotyped and monotonous and outdated patterns, a number of realist masterpieces emerged in sculpture, frescoes and literature, known as the "Amarnai style". It is characterized by natural approach and emphasis on realism.

Most of the Egyptian art (frescoes and sculptures) from the reign of Ekhatun that have survived to this day are in the Amalnai style, and they depict the family life of the pharaoh extensively, with the figures of his family members, especially Queen Nefertititi, standing out.

Amarnai-style artworks depict the happy lives of pharaohs and queens.

The preserved artistic image shows that the pharaoh had a very peculiar appearance: extremely slender limbs, a protruding abdomen, and a wide hip. This has led to strange opinions, such as the belief that Ehnatun was actually a woman disguised as a man, or intersex, or suffering from some kind of gender disorder. These speculations are rarely supported by any actual basis.

These artworks depict Queen Nefertiti at the extremes of beauty and ugliness, sometimes exaggerated in her elongated head and protruding abdomen. This is the only time in Egyptian history that the pharaoh's holy family is represented in a naturalistic style, and his family is clearly characterized by its joyful character. Nefertiti often made moves that only the pharaoh himself would do, which may imply that she gained more power than a queen would normally have.

The monks of the Temple of Amun, who hated the Reformation of Ekhatun, were always looking for an opportunity to assassinate Ekhatun.

One day, Ekhatun and the old queen Tiyi took a bus to the temple of Atun to worship the gods. He was in a good mood and introduced his mother to the street scenery along the way. Suddenly, the carriage stopped, and Eheatun looked ahead, and it turned out that a man had stopped the convoy. The chief of the guard stepped forward to inquire, and the man said that he had filed a complaint. Ehatun told the young man to come to his chariot, and the prime minister Ayita received him.

The man knelt under the wheel of the chariot on which the king was seated. Ayi leaned over his horse and was about to receive the paper, when the young man leapt to his feet, drew a sharp bronze knife from the scroll of paper, and stabbed the pharaoh in the chest. "Ah!" said Ehnatun, instinctively, and flashed backwards instinctively, and the old queen fainted with fright. At the last moment, the guard on the right side of the car spun his bronze spear sideways and stabbed the assassin in the back. The spearhead burst through the hole, and the Assassin fell heavily before he could stab the Pharaoh, pressing down on Pharaoh's body, the tip of the knife almost touching Pharaoh's nose.

The news of the king's assassination soon spread, and the monks of Amun's temple took the opportunity to let out another word and said: "This is a warning from the god Amun to Pharaoh, and if he continues to perverse, he will be punished more severely." ”

For a time, the whole country of Egypt was in a panic. Queen Nefertiti was worried that Chung Chung persuaded Ehnatun to stop the persecution of the monks who believed in the god Amun in order to ease the conflict. Unexpectedly, Ehatun lost his temper and rebuked the queen. The queen was so sad that she returned to Thebes with her child, Tutankham.

In the same year, Nefertiti changed his name to Smunkara and appointed himself pharaoh with the assistance of ministers headed by Ayi. and formed a government loyal to her there, and the couple did not see each other again until after their deaths.

In the latter part of Ekhatun's reign, a great plague broke out, perhaps the first major influenza outbreak in the world, centered on the city of Ekhtatun. The disease spread from Egypt to the whole of the Middle East, with the death of King Supiluluma I of the New Hittite Kingdom and the death of Ekhatun in the midst of the rebellion due to the plague. The disease also led to the rapid decline of the city of Ekhtatun.

By the time of his death, Smunkara had failed to forgive him, had not attended his funeral, and of course had not dared to go because of the plague.

Smunkara, reigned: years. Also known as Tadu Paba, Nefertiti > Nefertiti means "beauty from afar", and was originally Egypt's Asian ally - Mitanni's little princess, whose real name is Tadu Paba.

At the age of 15, he married Amenhotep III, Ekhatun's father, but two years after the marriage, Amenhoteb III abdicated and was succeeded by Ekhatun, and the old pharaoh Jean Nefertidi remarried the new pharaoh to take care of his daily life.

The monotheistic Reformation of Eheatun was strongly influenced by Queen Nefertiti.

Queen Nefertiti is known for her stunning beauty. Queen Nefertiti is considered one of the most beautiful women in ancient Egyptian history and is a symbol of beauty and wisdom. She was beautiful, noble, with soft facial features, thin and delicate ears, a graceful long neck, thick black eyebrows, and crimson lips;

The head of Queen Nefertiti wears a high blue crown with a gold and gemstone band. The holy serpent, the symbol of the Egyptian royal family, coiled around the forehead of the crown. The right eye of the head is made of thin crystal stone, in which an artificial black gemstone is set.

When Nefertiti's elegant bust was first exhibited in 1924, she quickly became the first cover girl in history, with millions of women imitating her makeup, and she was the first beauty in the eyes of the world.

During the reign of Eheatun, Ehatun was obsessed with religion and not politics, so many political matters were decided by Queen Nefertiti. The many murals and sculptures unearthed show that she played an important role in the political and religious life of the Egyptians.

When depicting her artwork, she often wears a pharaoh's crown. In art, Nefertiti often distributes gifts to officials from the balcony of the palace, or stands on a chariot brandishing a scepter and directs the army to tear down the enemy.

Traditionally, these symbols of power belonged only to the pharaohs, but during the reign of Ehatun, many traditions were overturned, and Nefertiti even stood side by side with her husband in religious ceremonies. Her power and beauty led her to be revered throughout her life as the mother goddess and protector of the capital city of Ekhtatun.

During Nefertiti's reign in Egypt, she ordered the establishment of several trade routes and the shipment of precious treasures from abroad to Egypt. At the time of her reign, women had equal rights like men, could buy and sell goods in the bazaar, go to war, and receive equal pay for their work. The picture shows a bust of Queen Nefertiti, completed in Ehtatun's studio in Ekhtatun, reflecting the Amalnai style of life and nature.
