Does anyone know who that is suppose to be? I have not seen that particular work of art before.

I ask because I thought the mask in the upper left corner of the main forum page has a striking resemblance to the wooden sarcophagus found in KV 63.

When they first entered KV 63 they found pottery remnants which may have belonged to Ankhesenpaaten. I thought both the faces looked similar with the eyes being a little different and the eyebrow on the right being a little bit higher.

No way! I thought that was a girl. Well they were half siblings possibly. The sarcophagus in KV63 is from the same time period and was discovered with the hieroglyph for Aten leading some to believe it was from the Amarna period.

King Tut usually has very even features.

i do not agree that it's ankhesenpaaten, i'll just stay with the tutankhamun guess..

the eyes and the eyebrows are difrent from the sarcophagus discoverd in kv63..
