English to Arabic: Nefertiti نفرتيتي General field: Art/Literary Detailed field: History
Source text - English Nefertiti - which means: The Beautiful has come - (1370 – 1330 BC) was an Egyptian queen & the chief consort of the Egyptian Pharaoh Akhenaten (formerly Amenhotep IV), who reigned from approximately 1353 to 1336 BC. Nefertiti and her husband were known for a religious revolution when they worshiped one god only, Aten, or the sun disc, & left Egypt’s capital Thebes to Amarna, & they reigned at what was arguably the wealthiest period of Ancient Egyptian history.
Nefertiti was known throughout Egypt for her beauty & was said to be proud of her long, swan-like neck. She also shares her name with a type of elongated gold bead, called nefer, that she was often portrayed as wearing.
Much controversy lingers about Nefertiti after the twelfth regal year of Akhenaten from whom she had 5 daughters, when her name vanishes from the pages of history. She lived after her husband’s death for a short time - & just like what happened to her husband - her name was erased from history records & her pictures were defaced after her death.
There are many theories regarding her death and burial but, to date, the mummy of this famous queen, her parents, or her children has not been found or formally identified.
Long forgotten to history, Nefertiti was made famous when her bust was discovered in the ruins of the sculptor shop of Thutmose in Amarna in 1912, that was stolen by the German archeologist Ludwig Borchardt now in Berlin's New Museum.
Translation - Arabic الملكة نفرتيتي - والتي يعني اسمها “الجميلة أتت” - (١٣٧٠-١٣٣٠ ق.ب.) كانت ملكة مصرية والرئيس المرافق لزوجها الفرعون المصري إخناتون (سابقا: امنحوتوب الرابع) الذي حكم بين حوالي ١٣٥٣-١٣٣٦ ق.م. - عُرفت نفرتيتي وزوجها بالثورة الدينية حين عبدا إلاها واحدا فقط ـ آتون - أو قرص الشمس - وتركا العاصمة المصرية طيبة إلى تل العمارنة، وحكما ما كان يُقال أنها أغنى فترة من التاريخ المصري القديم.
عُرفت نفرتيتي في أنحاء مصر بجمالها، وقيل أنها كانت فخورة برقبتها الطويلة التي كانت كرقبة البجعة. كما أنها تشارك اسمها مع نوع من خرز الذهب الممدود - يُدعى “نيفر” - الذي طالما صُوّرت به ترتديه.
وهناك الكثير من الجدل حول نفرتيتي من بعد العام الثاني عشر للملك إخناتون الذي أنجبت منه خمسة بنات، عندما يختفي اسمها من صفحات التاريخ. فقد عاشت فترة قصيرة من بعد وفاة زوجها - وكما حدث لزوجها - تم مسح اسمها من سجلات التاريخ، وتشويه صورها من بعد وفاتها.
هناك العديد من النظريات حول وفاتها ودفنها، ولكن حتى الآن، لم يُحدّد رسميا العثور على مومياء هذه الملكة الشهيرة، كما لم يتم العثور على مومياء والديها، أو أطفالها. وبعد فترة طويلة من نسيان التاريخ، أُشتهرت نفرتيتي عندما تم اكتشاف تمثالها النصفي من بين أنقاض ورشة تحتمس النحات بتل العمارنة عام 1912، الذي سرقه عالم الآثار الألماني لودفيج بورشاردت، وهو الآن في المتحف الجديد ببرلين.
