Nefertiti;“The beautiful one has arrived.”

Neferneferuaten Nefertiti was the Great Royal Wife of Akhenaten, an Egyptian Pharaoh. Nefertiti and her husband were known for a religious revolution, in which they worshiped one god only, Aten, or the sun disc.

Nefertiti is known for her elegant beauty. Her bust has been an icon for many women and for many modern cosmetic lines. Many societies around the world have adopted the queen as a symbol of true beauty. Some historians have even proclaimed her the most beautiful woman in the world. Whatever people have said about her, one thing holds true—she remains renowned for her beauty after her death and during her life as a queen.

She ruled alongside Akhenaten during the eighteenth dynasty (1550-1292 BC). She lived in Tell El Amarna, a city constructed by the pharaoh to worship their god Aten.
