ADITI- Hello, I am the nanny of our wonderful queen. Today, I would like to tell you a huge secret. As you all know, I have been taking care of our queen since she was a baby. I have watched her grow into a strong and brave girl. Sadly, I wasn’t able to see Hatshepsut as an adult. The truth is, Hatshepsut died a long time ago! This funeral is actually the funeral for Acenith! Acenith is one of Amun-Ra’s brave and determined daughters. She was the twin sister of our wonderful queen, Hatshepsut. This may surprise you all, but it is the truth. From the beginning, we all believed that our queen, Hatshepsut, only had a sister and two brothers. Sadly, all of her siblings died when they were young. However, that wasn’t the truth. Hatshepsut also had a twin sister, which nobody knew about! Her twin sister is Acenith and, Acenith never died! Acenith was taken by her father, Amun-Ra, when she was little. Their mother, Ahmose, kept Hatshepsut and Amun-Ra kept Acenith. When Hatshepsut died at the age of twelve, I was the only one to witness this. She used a poisonous perfume that she found laying around in the house. I cried and cried and I prayed to Amun-Ra. Finally, Amun-Ra answered to my prayers and came to meet me. He brought Acenith to me to end my sorrow. I didn’t want to upset everyone about the death of their queen. So, I didn’t tell anyone. And I sat Acenith on the throne. You all believed that Acenith was your queen the whole time. I was happy about what I did because I realized that Acenith was a great leader. She accomplished a lot in life.

The ancient Egyptians believed that a human soul was made up of five parts: the Ren, the Ba, the Ka, the Sheut, and the Ib.

__//**REN**//__- name

__//**BA**//__- personality (everything that makes an individual unique)

__//**KA**//__- spirit (The Ka (kꜣ) was the Egyptian concept of vital essence, that which distinguishes the difference between a living and a dead person, with death occurring when the ka left the body. The Egyptians believed that Khnum created the bodies of children on a potter's wheel and inserted them into their mothers' bodies. Depending on the region, Egyptians believed that Heket or Meskhenet was the creator of each person's Ka, breathing it into them at the instant of their birth as the part of their soul that made them be alive. This resembles the concept of spirit in other religions.

The Egyptians also believed that the ka was sustained through food and drink. For this reason food and drink offerings were presented to the dead, although it was the kau (kꜣw) within the offerings that was consumed, not the physical aspect. The ka was often represented in Egyptian iconography as a second image of the king, leading earlier works to attempt to translate ka as double.)

**__//LB//__**- heart
