Talk:Neithhotep

Misplaced Citation for Neithhotep Serekh
Speaking of this sentence and reference:


 * She was once thought to be a male ruler: her outstandingly large mastaba and the royal serekh surrounding her name on several seal impressions previously led Egyptologists and historians to the erroneous belief that she might have been an unknown king.

I own this book, Early Dynastic Egypt, by Wilkinson, the 2000 reprint. The mention of Neithhotep's tomb is on page 6, but it does not mention the royal serekh surrounding her name on several seal impressions. There are no mentions of Neithhotep on page 26 or 174, nor on the five pages before or after either. I suggest updating the reference to correct the page numbers. But perhaps this information was actually in the first printing. It would be good to confirm it first.Cadwallader (talk) 22:34, 27 September 2023 (UTC)
