Queen Isis was a secondary wife of Tuthmosis the Second and the mother of Tuthmosis the Third.
After his father's death, King Tuthmosis the Third honored his mother by making this statue identifying the queen with the mother goddess Isis. He also gave her the epithets reserved for the great royal wives on the base of this statue.
It should be noted that the name of the god Amun was re-inscribed after it had been erased during the Amarna period. |
