After 3,000 years it’s appears all but certain that the husband of the mummy of Djedmaatesankh has been found.
We know from her coffin that his name is Paankhntof. She was a musician at the temple of Amun-Re in Thebes - he was a doorkeeper at the same temple (actually something of an important position).
At the weekend symposium, researchers presented evidence that the mummy of her husband is now located at the Art Institute of Chicago.
Heritage Key broke the story a week ago here.
The research was presented by Gayle Gibson of the Royal Ontario Museum and Stephanie Holowka of the Hospital for Sick Children.
But first – the most interesting aspect – she may not be his only wife!
