Yes and there are theories that ancient Egyptians had a similar practice because there are a good amount of images with broken noses. Though those theories are centered around "killing" the spirit of the person in the statue by cutting off their breathing

@@vihansenalvi3002 This is a series about artifacts that I either see in person or find on an auction website. So currently I am going through this recent auction, to try and give these pieces a space before they go behind closed doors in a private collection.

@@عبدالرازقفيصل Thank you, I missed that there are two ancient cities named Athribis, one north of Cairo and one in Sohag. So I accidentally mixed the info up!

@@BrandonRiver-qi4gw Thanks! I have been posting for 3 years over on TikTok, I’m just finally getting around to cross posting!

@@vinceneukom9708 This wouldn’t be in Greece but in Egypt. But since Greeks lived in Egypt around this time, some of these practices absolutely could be a mix of Egyptian and Greek traditions

@MelissainDeNile didnt they specify that it was proto Egyptian Dynasty and greek populace.? I hear wrong sometimes.

@@vinceneukom9708 If by proto Egyptian you mean Predynastic Egyptian, then no. This is thousands of years later so during the Greek period in Egypt it is a mixture of native Egyptians, Persians and other Mesopotamian cultures, and Greeks. In the Late Period, quite a few other nations conquered Egypt like the Persians, before Alexander the Great conquered the Persian Empire and this took Egypt with it.

Post egyptian dynasty, thanks

DNA analysis does take a while, especially because there are theories that ancient DNA could have been severely degraded overtime. He might also be writing a paper on it after they get the results, so that would make it a longer process. But I could be wrong, I thought that he was announcing that he was going to try to find Nefertiti and her tomb. And if I remember I don't think he had any real basis in the statment, he just said something like "I will be the one to find it eventually."

It’s extremely hard to pick hard and fast dates of births of Pharaohs that’s why I used approximate dates. And while we know from DNA testing that Tutankhamun’s mother was The Younger Lady we don’t have enough evidence to identify her as Kiya. We have only been able to identify her as a daughter of Phaorah Amenhotep III making her a sister of Akhenaten.
