Are you serious? Wow. So much to learn. Start here.

Nefertiti (the beauty that has come) was the Great Royal Wife (or chief consort/wife) of the Egyptian Pharaoh Amenhotep IV (later Akhenaten), and the mother in law and probable stepmother of the Pharaoh Tutankhamun. She may have also ruled in her own right under the name Neferneferuaten-Nefertiti (meaning, the Aten is radiant of radiance because the Beautiful has arrived) briefly after her husband's death and before the accession of Tutankhamun. Her name roughly translates to "the beautiful (or perfect) woman has come". She also shares her name with a type of elongated gold bead, called nefer, that she was often portrayed as wearing. She was made famous by her bust, now in Berlin's Altes Museum, shown to the right. The bust is one of the most copied works of ancient Egypt. It was attributed to the sculptor Thutmose, and was found in his workshop. The bust itself is notable for exemplifying the understanding Ancient Egyptians had regarding realistic facial proportions.

A queen from ancient Egypt. Currently she resides in a German museum although the Egyptian historical experts are trying to get her back.

She was a powerful, ancient Egyptian queen/pharaoh. I suggest you type that name into the Wikipedia search and can find lots of information.
