Question

Don't belive it, go ahead and search for it. I have got all the information about it.

Queen Nefertiti of Egypt was a native of Mitanni. The Mittani Kingdom of Armenia was an off-shoot of the Hurrian kingdom. The Hurri and the Mittani in turn were the contemporaries the Hittites and the Hykos, within whom they shared many cultural and political aspects. Today, all these aforementioned nations are considered to be, in varying degrees, proto-Armenians, that is, we modern day Armenians are direct descendants of the remnants of those ancient tribes."

Answer 1

I am embarrassed to say, yes, now that you remind me. I learned this when studying for my Art History minor...our instructor was a true historian and often provided extra (non- Art) details in order to give perspective and appreciation of styles and difficulties and backgrounds. That was one of the details he'd provided, but I had forgotten it till you reminded me...but then, it's been over 20 years...LOL

Answer 2

You are right, and that proves so many other things I am going to search more about it, thanks Sera jan!

"The Hurrians had a history of their own. Assyrian and Sumerian sources dating from the end of the third millenium B.C. supply our first information about this nation, people, and the land of Hurri, South of Caucasus. We also know that they come from the region of Lake Van in Eastern Anatolia, and are referred to as Horrittes by the Bible. Still, later in the ninth-seventh centuries N.C. the highland of Armenia were inhabited by a people who were related to the Hurrians and whose country bore the name Urartu, the Biblical Ararat"

Answer 3

"Nefertiti's parentage is not known with certainty, but it is now generally believed that she was the daughter of Ay, later to be pharaoh.[1] Another theory that gained some support identified Nefertiti with the Mitanni princess Tadukhipa. The name Nimerithin has been mentioned in older scrolls, as an alternative name, but this has not yet been officially confirmed. It has also been suggested that Nefertiti was a daughter or relative of Amenhotep III, or of the high Theban nobility. Another theory places Nefertiti as the daughter of Sitamun, half-sister of Amenhotep III. Queen Iaret was Sitamun's mother. Iaret held important hereditary titles that ceased to exist after the ascension of Amenhotep III. Sitamun is elevated to Great Royal Wife beside Tiye but there is no indication that she ever had children and if so with whom. There is some evidence based upon the titles of each of these women that suggests that three were somehow related to one another."

Answer 4

You will find MANY different opinions on who Nefertiti was, and from where she came.
The url below just explains 'Mitanni'..... and the lack of any information on this area, other than references made by Egyptian, Assyrian and Hittite cultures.
