SUMMARY:The Enigmatic Treasure of a Nubian Queen
DESCRIPTION:Queen Khensa was a Nubian royal and principal wife of King Piankhy\, the Kushite ruler (664–653 BCE) who conquered Egypt and established the Twenty-fifth Dynasty. She was buried in a pyramid tomb whose contents were largely plundered in antiquity. Even so\, her burial still contained a variety of intriguing objects\, from precious-metal vessels and fine jewelry to tools\, figurines\, and natural history specimens. The function of many of these items remains a mystery. In this talk\, Denise Doxey will present what survives of Khensa’s mortuary offerings and discuss new ideas about how these treasures may have functioned in royal Nubian funerary ritual and belief. \nAdvance registration recommended.
