Statue of Tutankhamun

One of two life-size statues of the king stood by the sealed door which led through to the burial chamber. These black varnished wood statues, between 5ft 6in and 5ft 7in and dressed in loincloths with gilt sandals, are probably of the king's own height.

Images of King Akhenaten

King Akhenaten and his wife Nefertiti praying to the sun-god Aten who provided his rays to the king and the queen. The sun rays end up with hands holding the key of life offering it to the royal family.

Akhenaten and Nefertiti changed Egypt's official religion to devotion to Aten, angering many powerful priests of the traditional multi-god religion. The sun-disk, during the Amarna period usually depicted with sun rays ending in hands that offer the sign of life (ankh) to the king and his family. The Aten was first regarded as a god during the 18th Dynasty and gained popularity under Amenhotep III (Akhenaten). Akhenaten abolished all other gods in favour of the Aten, and composed royal names and titles for his god. His “monotheistic” Aten-veneration was abandoned after his death.

This alabaster carving is from the tomb of Akhenaten.
