The Nemes head-dress is a soft-bodied crown made of cloth (I'm assuming linen?) that is the most common Egyptian crown seen in pop-culture, because of the prominent statuary that is pictured wearing it. But I have only ever seen it pictured in statuary. I've never seen a photo of a cloth replica. I've seen crappy costume ones that are basically just a two-dimensional shape that's been stuffed, but I've been looking specifically for the past week, trying to find any information on how a proper Nemes would have been folded, what shape the cloth would have been to start with and how it was worn in general. Can anybody help me out with that?

I have a notebook with some great notes from Joyce Tyldesley's Nefertiti and I am currently delving into Akhenaten: Egypt's False Prophet. Where else should I be looking to acquaint myself with this period of history?

hi...
that's forum is so nice.i like it..

The stories about Egyptian kings and Mummy's are still interesting to most of the readers and a good part of the information are still unable to prove by the humans now. Your description about Nemes head-dress was interesting to read and you have succeeded in explaining every part of this.
