Is Nefatiti a Pharaoh?
At the end of achenaton's reign, a female pharaoh called nepenefraton appears as his co ruler. The question has always been, who is that female pharaoh and why did she hold power in her own right? i'm interested to hear aden's views on it. Over to joyce, i would say it differently.

We do have an image of her standing with her husband, because all the rest are circumstantial.
