Just want Nefertiti?
Hello! My name is Nefertiti. Isn't that a fun name to say? It means 'the beautiful one has come.' I was a queen who lived in a warm, sunny land called Egypt a very, very long time ago. I wore beautiful clothes and a special tall, blue crown on my head. It was so lovely to live where the sun was always shining.
I was married to the king, a pharaoh named Akhenaten. We loved each other very much. We also loved our six daughters! If you saw pictures from my time, you would see us playing and hugging our children. We loved the sunshine and believed the sun gave life to everything. We even built a whole new city by the river. It was full of light and beautiful art for our family and our people to live in.
After I lived, an artist made a famous statue of my face. It shows me with my long neck and my tall blue crown. That statue was found many, many years after my time. Today, people all over the world can see my face in museums and in books. Even though my time on Earth ended long ago, people remember me as a strong and beautiful queen of ancient Egypt.
