THE WOMAN IS WEARING A CROWN SHE IS NOT A QUEEN. SHE IS THE DECEASEDS WIFE. SHE IS A LADY WHO IS IN THE DECEASED,S TOMB BECAUSE WHEN A ANCIENT EGYPTIAN DIED HE WANTED TO HAVE THE SAME THINGS IN THE AFTER LIFE AS HE HAD IN LIFE. AND THAT IS WHY THEY WOULD PUT AS MANY OF THEIR POSSESSIONS IN THEIR TOMBS FOR THE AFTERLIFE AS THEY COULD. INCLUDING FOOD,CLOTHES, FURNITURE EVEN A FAVORITE PET DOG,CAT OR EVEN A MONKEY. THEY DID BELIEVE THAT YOU COULD TAKE IT WITH YOU WHEN YOU DIED. MOST ANCIENT EGYPTIANS MOSTLY WANTED TO LIVE ALONG THE NILE IN EGYPT,BECAUSE TO THEM THAT WAS THE ONLY PLACE THAT THEY WANTED TO LIVE IN. THIS IS JUST A SMALL EXAMPLE OF WHAT THE ANCIENT EGYPTIANS BELIEVED. THEY HAD MANY GODS AND DIFFERENT IDEAS ABOUT HOW TO GET TO THE AFTERLIFE AND LIVE FOREVER. SHE WERE RIGHT ABOUT HOW SHE LOOKED BECAUSE HER HUSBAND WAS SUCCESSFUL IN LIFE, SO SHE IS WEARING A FINE LINEN DRESS AND FINE NECKLACE. AND THAT CONE ON HER HEAD SOME BELIEVE IS A SCENTED CONE THAT WOULD MELT DURING A BANQUET DOWN INTO HER WIG. AND SHE PROBABLY WESRING A WIG, EITHER MADE OF WOOL OR HMAN HAIR. A LOT EGYPTIANS WOULD SHAVE THEIR HAIR AND WEAR A WIG BECAUSE THE PROBLEM OF HEAD LICE.
