Amarna Era Chronological Conundrum: Accession of Neferneferuaten and Tutankhamun’s Death–Part II

A sculptor's limestone trial piece with sunk-relief depictions of (some believe) two Amarna Kings - Akhenaten and Smenkhkare. This could also be a double portrait of Akhenaten alone. The border below comprises surface decoration from the Tomb 55 coffin. Egyptian Museum, Cairo.
