>>>>Twosret took the throne for herself, assuming the role of a Pharaoh and the titulary of a Queen (King's Wife).
Untitled
This information is simply wrong. Twosret was 'great king's wife' under Seti II. When she became Pharaoh = king of Egypt, she took over the full titles of a king. However, there is no monument, where she appears as 'king's wife' and 'Pharaoh' (Pharaoh means the five titles and names of a king) Udimu 4.10.2005. 8.55
- OK, I just thought it wasn't logically inconsistent. Thanks for clearing that up.--Pharos 23:52, 5 October 2005 (UTC)
Twosret or Tausret ? How are you deciding the spellings guys?

Twosret → Tausret – While looking through sources on this person, it seems as though "Tausret" is actually the most common way of spelling her name.

It seems as though "Twosret" is actually the least common way of spelling her name in reliable sources. As "Tausret" appears to be the most common, I am requesting we rename this page to that. Grnrchst (talk) 10:00, 12 June 2024 (UTC)
