Did you notice the dates of tomb discovery? Tutankhamun’s tomb was opened in 1922 and some people died supposedly from the "curse of the pharaohs.” I really don’t want to go anywhere with this except that the Egyptology stuff is in perfect timing with the Harlem Renaissance and Prohibition and so on.

I know Paglia has an interesting bit about Nefertiti in her Sexual Personae... Also, if I remember correctly, and this is baseless old occult head speculation, but isn't there some lore about Nefertiti being a sorceress, and possible prophet of Christ? I've looked on internet for links, but maybe it's just a jumble of factoids that I've needlessly lumped together, but if there are any search engine autistes out there…

> That “prophet of Christ” stuff is mainly just because of Nefertiti’s husband, Akhenaten, and his religious leanings - Atenism - which were not new but Akhenaten expanded on the idea of monotheism. I think Nefertiti took them up and continued after his death, so she’d be a prophet of something maybe. That was monotheistic (kinda) before his time and he said stuff about his father which are maybe kinda-sorta like God the Father and Christ son of God.
