    "They" the ancients don't say that. Only modern people say it. There is no mention of her looks anywhere in history from the time she lived. It's 19th people that were amazed at the beauty of the statue and that got exaggerated by the media, to this day. And since we can't see into the past to get a view of many Egyptian girls to see what they looked like, it's impossible to say Nefertiti was more beautiful than the rest.

    I love how you really research your subject. My Grandfather wore many hats, he was a geologist, paleontologist, archeologist, genealogist, architect and held two other engineering degrees. He loved to study everything but his passion was researching the past, even when he was older and couldn’t travel he read all the papers and would explain what he was reading to me. We would have loved your videos. He used to say that the stylizations of the times was sometimes frustrating because they did not depict the true person as they were, but as a representation of style fads of the time. Thank you for having this channel.

    Amazing. Loved the blue earrings on the first recreation shown. I remember learning that they would never be seen without each other in public. They would always be together to symbolize divine completion. Their existence together was needed for the world to exist. That is beyond powerful and beautiful when you think about it. Especially how it must have looked to the people 3,000 years ago.

I see you got her ears right too which is what makes it the most real version of an ancient Egyptian too. I can allso see why people think she was Syrian or Persian - given the similarities with people from there - even today. But i also wanted to thank you for the well research history lessons while creating the best likeness you can based on all the information available. Keep up the great work!

    On my first trip to egypt I assumed cleopatra was beautiful and several egyptologists told me she was not considered beautiful, but charasmatic and extremely clever. They all told me Nerfertiti was the epitomy of beauty for many egyptians. I was so excited when i saw art depicting her at the national museum because it was obvious she was absolutely stunning by any standard. Iknew my history from books but my visual references were mostly from movies. I learned my lesson. What a wonderful channel this is. You really bring the characters from the past to life for us in a new way. Thank you!

    Cleopatra was both charismatic and beautiful. I think modern historians tend to dismiss beauty of any important woman, becaus emodern politics put importance on "mind" and internal value instead of physical look, as if it was shameful to woman be both beautiful and clever 😒😒 It's not only Cleopatra, also Kosem Sultan and I bet many others.

    Beauty depends on who the judge is, I cannot understand how some people think black people can be anywhere near attractive, I think that they are as ugly as sin, flat noses, fat lips, peppercorn hair, to me they are extremely unpleasant to even look at, yet some people, for some unfathomable reason, decide not only are they attractive, but there are whites who enter into relationships with them. So there isn’t a standard that is objective.

I took it home and painted it based on the real one in Berlin. I attached an Egyptian necklace I had and not to toot my own horn here, it looks stunning to this day. Seeing what she would have looked like in real life is breathtaking. ❤

    I'd seen an archeology video describing how the bust was discovered in an artist's workshop with quite a number of similar, partly finished busts of her with exactly the same features. So, in addition to the penchant for more realistic portraits during Akhenaten's reign, the archeologist thought it likely that Nefertiti's appearance was at least very close to reality.

    The construction of the bust is somewhat misunderstood. The smooth exterior shows her younger appearance and the inner core is her image in older age. As the bust deteriorates over centuries and possibly millennia, it will show her greater age by losing its exterior layers. The process ultimately will expose her elder image as facial lines, bumps and saggy features of age gradually appear from under the plaster exterior.

    I find Nefertiti to be such an interesting pharaoh and it sucks that we don’t know much about her life apart from her husband Akhenaten. I definitely think she is one of the most beautiful pharaohs in Egyptian history. I think how she is portrayed in the Berlin Bust is what she looked like. I really like the first reconstruction of her and think that’s how she looked like when she was alive. I’m very curious to know what happened to her after she wasn’t present in the art anymore. Have you done a reconstruction of Akhenaten? If not, I would be really interested in seeing that and seeing how he looked like. I’m sure he was just as attractive as his wife.

The sensitive portrayal of Egyptian royal family life, discussion of name change possibilities, and comparison with other Egyptian sculptures and images of Nefertiti gave me much reason to believe your virtual creation of her physical images could be very near to her actual appearance. Beautiful, fascinating and stunning research work.

    @@carlcoke3137 This video is about a virtual art recreation. It doesn't claim to recreate particular racial characteristics, whether with darker or lighter skin. One theory by the artist was that Nefertiti may have been a mix of ETHNICITIES. There is no racial stereotyping in simply hoping to approximate how Nefertiti looked by comparing her most famous statue with other statues and painted representations of her. I heard no comments about racial racial superiority or inferiority based on how Egyptians looked. As a matter of fact, humanistic thinking people believe that there are no uniquely different races, as the United Nations has said. We all share predominantly the same DNA. Could you quit complaining to reflect that Nefertiti may have had to change her name to avoid stereotyping of her female sex? How about reflecting on that form of discrimination.
