Outer Coffin of the Singer of Amun-Re, Henettawy ca. 1000-945 B.C. Third Intermediate Period The Mistress of the House, Singer of Amun-Re, Henettawy died at the young age of twenty-one. She was buried in a plundered tomb, which had originally been the resting place of Minmose, an official of Hatshepsut. The burial was a modest one, including a set of coffins and personal jewelry. Henettawy's body was not embalmed but simply wrapped in layers of linen bandages.Aside from her rather simple personal jewelry, Henettawy's main burial equipment consisted of two splendid coffins (25.3.182a, b; 25.3.183a, b) and a mummy board (25.3.184), fitting one into the other like parts of a Russian doll. Both coffins and the innermost lid are shaped like wrapped mummies with elaborate masks fastened over the heads.The outer coffin lid, intended to resemble a wrapped mummy, wears an elaborate pectoral in the shape of a small shrine within which are two winged wedjat eyes, with suspended uraeus cobras hold

Assyrian king Shalmaneser I ordered the founding of Nimrud, which existed for about 1,000 years as the capital in the 13th century BCE. The city gained fame when king Ashurnasirpal II of Assyria (c. 880 BCE) made it his capital. He built a large palace and temples on the site of an earlier city that had long fallen into ruins. A grand opening ceremony with festivities and an opulent banquet in 879 BCE is described in an inscribed stele discovered during archeological excavations. The city of king Ashurnasirpal II housed perhaps as many as 100,000 inhabitants, and contained botanic gardens and a zoo. His son, Shalmaneser III (858-824 BCE), built the monument known as the Great Ziggurat, and an associated temple. The palace, restored as a site museum, is one of only two preserved Assyrian palaces in the world, the other being Sennacherib's palace at Nineveh. Nimrud remained the Assyrian capital until 706 BCE when Sargon II moved the capital to Khorsabad. It remained a major centre and a
