Nefertiti Mummy Claim Disputed

Earlier this year, archaeologists reported they may have found the mummy of Queen Nefertiti in Luxor. Now the claim is being disputed – in part because while Nefertiti was said to have had six children, the body found appeared not to have given birth. “The evidence does not at all support the finding of Nefertiti. It would be very obvious from any x-rays of the mummy whether it had given birth…there would be specific markings.”
