  • ... that an inscription uncovered at the Pyramid of Khentkaus I, identifies Khentkaus I as the mother of two kings, or, perhaps, a king herself and a mother of one too? Source: See FN25 (Verner, 2001, p. 262, though I recommend pp. 262-264 for full context).

    • Comment: In my own opinion, the fact that only one other Egyptian woman has ever held that title - Khentkaus II - is even more interesting, but that's not something I stated in the pyramid article and it's not tied to the tomb in any way. Further, with Khentkaus II, Egyptologists are confident with 'mother of two kings' (Neferefre and Nyuserre Ini) rather than 'king and mother of king'. With Khentkaus I, there's more of a debate, part of the 'Khentkaus problem'.

Improved to Good Article status by Mr rnddude (talk). Self-nominated at 03:41, 4 July 2022 (UTC).

General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
Image: Image is freely licensed, used in the article, and clear at 100px.
QPQ: None required.

Overall: I rephrased the hook fact slightly in the article so that all the information in the hook is explicitly stated, and repeated the citation on both sentences containing parts of the hook fact, so that they are both explicitly cited. Very nice! Mary Mark Ockerbloom (talk) 00:52, 9 July 2022 (UTC)
