| − | *'''31. Akhenaten''' Akhenaten was a pharoh who reigned in ancient Egypt about 3,500 years ago. Although he was pharoh for a short time, he is famous for his religious revolution. He overthrew Egypt's polytheism, or "belief in or worship of more than one god" [http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/polytheism] and replaced it with the worship of a single god, Aten, the sun god [http://www.heptune.com/Akhnaten.html]. His chief wife was named Neferetti, and they moved away from Thebes and established a new captital, which is now known as Armana. The city was dedicated to Aten. He also infuleunced the art of the time period. Akhenaten was the first pharoh to have images and paintings done of himself and his family that actually looked like them. In 1335 B.C., Neferetti disappeared and most likely died, and in 1332 B.C., Akhenaten died, and the circumstances were never explained [http://www.crystalinks.com/akhenaten.html]. Noel Higgason

| − | Ankhesenamun was the wife of Tutankhamen and Queen of Egypt. She married her husband at the age of thirteen. Tutankhamen was about eight. After their young marriage, they went on to rule Egypt for ten years, until King Tut's sudden death at age eighteen. Interestingly, however, after Tutankhamen's sudden death, records have shown that his hurriedly-put-together tomb has no *wifely" items. Tut's personal advisor, Ay, may have been trying to take Ankesnamun, his granddaughter, as his wife to become the new pharaoh. Her history is fuzzy, but records show she might have given birth to two still born daughters. I have gotten my information from the webiste: http://www.kingtutone.com/queens/ankhesenamun/
