202: A Valley of the Queens & The Womb of Hathor

The History of Egypt Podcast

Ancient Egypt, from Creation to Cleopatra. This podcast tells the story of pharaonic Egypt "in their own words." Using archaeology, ancient texts, and up-to-date scholarship, we uncover the world of the Nile Valley and its people. Hosted on the Airwave Media Network.

The Place of Beauties (Ta-Set-Neferu). In the reigns of Ramesses I and Sety I (c.1304—1292 BCE), the Valley of the Queens finally earned its moniker. Having been a burial ground for royal children and courtiers, the wadi south of Deir el-Medina now began to host ruling women. In the days of Sety I, the Queen Mother Sitra and the Queen Tuya both received new tomb constructions in this site. Their monuments include evocative passages from the Book of the Dead (Chapter 17), and hints of the wonders to come in future generations…

Tombs discussed in this episode:

Princess Iah-Mes / Ahmose: Museo Egizio, Turin and Theban Mapping Project.

Queen Sitra: Theban Mapping Project.

Queen Tuya: Theban Mapping Project.

Queen Nefertari: Theban Mapping Project and digital reconstruction at Nefertari Tomb.
