Nefertiti Part IV: The Head with One Eye

CBS Radio Mystery Theater "Nefertiti Part IV: The Head with One Eye" is a Mystery from Thursday, January 11, 1979.

Amarna, the city of truth, is nearing completion along eight miles of the Nile River. Nefertiti assumes new duties in governing the city and, at the same time, starts sitting for a sculpture for herself, the first to be done realistically (copies of which are now in many museums across the world). Akhenaton continues spending Egypt’s gold on the city, refusing to appropriate more money for the army. He also insists that his 5-year-old daughter, Mekataton, worship only Aton, the Sun God. One day he leaves her kneeling in the hot sun, long enough for her to collapse and die. A heartbroken Nefertiti accuses both Aton and her husband of representing all that is evil and refuses to return to the palace.
