Eternal Egypt: Queen Nefertiti in Nubian Wig

For Students 9th - 10th
The relief, now incomplete, once showed Queen Nefertiti with her arms upraised making an offering to Aten. She wears a Nubian wig. This wig was first worn by Nubian mercenaries and later was made fashionable by Nefertiti and her daughters.
