* He and his wife are represented by the side of Khuniatonu, with the protocol and the attributes of royalty. Petrie assigns to this double reign those minor objects on which the king's prenomen Ankhkhopiruri is followed by the epithet beloved of Uanira, which formed part of the name of Khuniatonu. ** Petrie thinks, on the testimony of the lists of Manetho, which give twelve years to Akenkheres, daughter of Horos, that Saakeri reigned twelve years, and only two or three years as sole monarch without his father-in-law. I think these two or three years a probable maximum length of his reign, whatever may be the value we should here assign to the lists of Manetho. *** Petrie, judging from the number of minor objects which he has found in his excavations at Tel el-Amarna, believes that he can fix the length of Tutankhamon's sojourn at Khuitatonu at six years, and that of his whole reign at nine years. The town struggled for a short time against its adverse fate, which was no doubt retarded owing to the various industries founded in it by Khuniatonu, the manufactories of enamel and coloured glass requiring the presence of many workmen; but the latter emigrated ere long to Thebes or the neighbouring city of Hermopolis, and the "Horizon of Atonu" disappeared from the list of nomes, leaving of what might have been the capital of the Egyptian empire, merely a mound of crumbling bricks with two or three fellahin villages scattered on the eastern bank of the Nile.* * Petrie thinks that the temples and palaces were systematically destroyed by Harmhabi, and the ruins used by him in the buildings which he erected at different places in Egypt. But there is no need for this theory: the beauty of the limestone which Khuniatonu had used sufficiently accounts for the rapid disappearance of the deserted edifices.
