Meritamun

In ancient times when one would hear of the “beloved of the god Amun,” it would immediately be obvious that the reference is to Meritamun. In truth, we wouldn’t know anything about her if it weren’t for the discoveries of researchers from the University of Melbourne. While they were gathering their artifacts and archives, the researchers found a skull that linked to that of Meritamun. But how did it get there in the place from where it was? A total mystery.

Meritamun was a woman who portrayed nobility, and though she was only around 18-25 years old, she did what she had to during her time. Possibly, she lived about 3,000 years into the 3rd century B.C. Unfortunately, they couldn’t say what caused her death because all they had was her skull.
