Akhenaten --> Amenhotep?[[edit source]]
Where are we getting — from Doctor Who narratives, as per T:NO RW — that Akhenaten and Amenhotep are one in the same?

To rephrase your question: Where are we getting from DW narratives that Amenhotep that changed his name to Akhenaten is the same as Amenhotep who was married to Nefertiti?
- The answer is we don't like we don't know if Tut-Ankh-Amen is whatever the Bernice Summerfield novels call him even if Howard Carter discovered both. We only know he/they reigned in 14th century BC in the decades after Erimem's father Amenhotep II and Akhenaten's father Amen- something or something -amen (It's Amenhotep). Kate Orman managed to botch the date by 20 years. I did write a behind the scenes section that dealt with the problems of dating and his name but somebody removed it for some reason. --Nyktimos ☎ 23:52, September 14, 2012 (UTC)
