What if the Egyptian Queen Nefertiti’s distinctive “crown” was really a special form of headwrap?
Truthfully, I got the idea after seeing various photos of African and Afro-Diasporan women wearing their headwraps in a style emulating Nefertiti’s crown. It made me wonder whether the original crown itself could have been a headwrap. It may not be that historically likely, but I still think it’s a cool concept.
