Sarah Griffiths<\/p>\n

This study day explores the fascinating lives of Egypt\u2019s women of power: queens and consorts, priestesses and goddesses, empresses and entrepreneurs.<\/p>\n

Enjoying rights and freedoms unheard of in other ancient cultures, Egypt\u2019s elite women were unique, some ruling Egypt as Pharaoh in their own right. Sarah Griffiths will examine the archaeological and textual evidence from the Early Dynastic Period through to the end of the Ptolemaic era to recreate the lives of some of the most important of Egypt\u2019s female icons, including Merneith, Sobeknefru, Ahmose-Nefertari, Hatshepsut, Tiy, Nefertiti, Nefertari, Amenirdis I, Arsino\u0451 II and Cleopatra VII.<\/p>\n
