Skeletons of mummified royal women indicate they used the daggers and bows
buried with them

An dagger, found buried with an ancient Egyptian princess, has a elaborately
decorated handle.

This dagger was buried with Princess Ita, probably a daughter of the pharaoh
Amenemhat II, who lived almost 4,000 years ago. Examinations of the mummies
of five royal women indicate they used the weapons interred with them.

It seems some Egyptian royal women really were warrior princesses.

Examinations of almost 4,000-year-old mummified princesses suggest that they
were skilled users of the daggers, bows and other weapons buried with them,
researchers report July 17 in Frontiers in Environmental Archaeology.

從木乃伊化的王室女性遺骸中發現的骨骼表明，她們曾使用過與她們一同埋葬的匕首和弓
箭。

與古埃及公主一同下葬的匕首，刀柄裝飾精美。

這把匕首與伊塔公主一同下葬，她很可能是法老阿蒙涅姆赫特二世的女兒，生活在近4000
年前。對五位王室女性木乃伊的研究表明，她們生前都使用過與她們一同下葬的武器。

看來有些埃及王室女性確實是驍勇善戰的公主。


rather than merely symbolic owners of the weapons found in their tombs,”
says bioarchaeologist Zeinab Hashesh of Egypt’s Beni Suef University. Some
Egyptologists have dismissed armaments in females’ graves as “token”
objects for the afterlife, but characteristics of the female mummies showed
they had performed intensive martial activities, Hashesh says.

The six mummies in the study were excavated in 1894 and 1895 from the Dahshur
funerary complex, about 40 kilometers south of Cairo. Their tombs were
carefully cataloged, and included impact weapons like flails — jointed clubs
— and maces. But the mummies were removed and then overlooked at an Egyptian
museum; they were thought lost until their rediscovery in 2020.





Hashesh and her colleagues examined the mummies by measuring their bones to
determine sex and age at death, and used X-rays and other techniques to
search the remains for signs of illness and trauma. Their investigations
confirmed handwritten notes from the 19th century excavators at Dahshur.

The one male mummy was an obscure 13th Dynasty pharaoh, while three — Ita,
Khenmet and Itaweret — were probably daughters of the 12th Dynasty pharaoh
Amenemhat II, who ruled approximately between 1929 and 1895 B.C. One mummy
had no notes, but the researchers tentatively identified it as that of
Sathathormeryt, a fourth sister to the three princesses. The other mummy was
also a princess, but was not one of the sisters.




All six mummies shared a rare cluster of inherited spinal defects, indicating
they were related. The team hopes to carry out DNA studies in the future. But
the researchers also saw clear evidence of “robust” muscle attachments —
where connective tissue once joined the muscle and the bone — and some
telling skeletal developments. For instance, enlarged areas of the forearm
bones indicated that Itaweret had often drawn bows.

Some of the women had healed from traumatic injuries, possibly sustained
while training, hunting or in battle. “These princesses were not leading
sedentary lives of luxury,” Hashesh says. “They were well-conditioned
athletes whose bodies were hardened by the same skilled force and disciplined
movement as the men of their time.”

Egyptologist Nicholas Brown, who was not involved in the study, says Egyptian
princesses used bows in the royal ritual of shooting arrows in the four
cardinal directions — north, east, south and west — during the Sed festival
of renewal. However, the evidence for the princesses’ use of weapons is
indirect, says Brown, of the University of Iowa in Iowa City. “The bones aren
’t preserving the behavior directly, but the muscle attachments are clearly
indicating some kind of habitual, repeated activity.”
