Abstract

The identity of the Pharaoh who perished during Exodus has remained one of history's most enduring mysteries. While traditional scholarship has focused on New Kingdom rulers such as Thutmose III or Ramesses II, recent forensic analysis of the mummy of Seqenenre Taa (c. 1560–1555 BCE) provides compelling new evidence.
