   Think of this:   
      
   The ancient Egyptians often reused statues.   
   And columns. Pretty much anything. Why   
   start from scratch when you can re-purpose   
   something old and wind up with exactly what   
   you want?   
      
   The famous bust of Nefertiti has wrinkles.   
      
   It wasn't a young woman.   
      
   Nope.   
      
   The bust was of an older women, someone who   
   lived long enough to develop some wrinkles.   
      
   Was Nefertiti Tiye?   
      
   Both vanished before the end of Akhenaten's   
   reign. Going by Wiki, both vanished sometime   
   around Akhenaten's year-12! So they align well.   
      
   It makes perfect sense.   
      
   "But Egyptians never married their mothers!"   
      
   Well, this was no ordinary Egyptian, and   
   certainly not one who paid a whole lot of   
   attention, much less lip service, to cultural   
   norms!   
      
   And, like I said, Nefertiti was NOT a young   
   woman! We know this much is true...   
      
   PROBLEM:  Plague had struck Amarna -- they've   
   found traces of the Black Death!  So, we have   
   a mechanism to drop a whole lot of people in   
   very little time. We don't need a reason for   
   two people to die close together. So, the fact   
   that they both vanish at the same time isn't   
   so telling. The fact that they vanish at the   
   same time AND neither was a young woman...
