Ruling queen of the late Nineteenth Dynasty, one of the few women to rule Egypt, perhaps alongside Saptah: after her death, her monuments were defaced to remove the presence of a ruling queen from the hieroglyphic, so eternal, record. There continues to be much debate over the exact sequence of events in the late Nineteenth Dynasty, after the reign of Merenptah: fragmentary or scattered manuscripts and inscriptions provide inconclusive evidence for the relations between Amenmesse, Sety II, queen Tawesret and Siptah.
