一群瑞士考古學(xué)家最近在埃及的帝王谷偶然發(fā)現(xiàn)一個(gè)古墓，古墓的主人是3000年前古埃及的一名“歌星”。為了紀(jì)念這次考古發(fā)現(xiàn)，研究人員將其稱為古埃及的“Lady Gaga”。這個(gè)古埃及歌星的名字是尼邁·巴斯泰，專門服侍埃及太陽神Amun-Ra。考古學(xué)家根據(jù)墓中器物斷定尼邁·巴斯泰曾經(jīng)在最著名、最大的露天神廟卡爾納克神廟表演過，并參加過多次紀(jì)念太陽神Amun-Ra的大型儀式，由此可見其身份的高貴。此外，研究人員還認(rèn)為尼邁·巴斯泰的父親是古埃及第22個(gè)王朝的大祭司。

Untouched remains were buried among the kings of Egypt

For researchers in Egypt's Valley of the Kings, finding an untouched tomb is an exciting prospect, but finding one that became the final resting place of an ancient superstar is downright amazing. Swiss archaeologists recently stumbled upon the pristine remains of what they are calling the "Lady Gaga" of ancient Egypt: a singer for a revered deity who was buried some 3,000 years ago.

Her name was Nehmes Bastet and she served Amun-Ra, the deity often referred to as the "God of Gods." Amun-Ra was the Sun God of ancient Egypt, and therefore held the greatest importance of all the culture's icons. Amon's status within Egyptian lore would have meant an official position as his performer carried a lot of weight.

It's unclear exactly what purpose she served as a singer, but she likely played a role in many of the large-scale events held in honor of Amun-Ra, which may have heightened her celebrity. She is believe to be the daughter of the High Priest of Amon, making her the perfect candidate for such a duty — you might even say she was born this way.

Her tomb was reportedly adorned with wooden plaques and her remains were "nicely wrapped." The tomb's location in the Valley of the Kings is particularly important because up until recently, most researchers believed that area was reserved for royalty. Her prehistoric superstar status was apparently enough to grant her a final resting place among the most cherished individuals of the era.
