Abstract (english)

The Great Priestess of Amun is a position in the clergy of Amun that has appeared at the beginning of the New Kingdom and it has disappeared with the Persian conquest of Egypt. During this period 29 women were recorded with the title God's Wife of Amun but only a few of them actively played part in Egyptian religious life. During the New Kingdom most of the women were priestess of Amun in title only and with the 20th dynasty the title slowly disappeared. The title was reintroduced during the Third Intermediate Period by the priests of Amun that ruled Thebes independently. But the religious and political power of these women reached its peak during the 25th Nubian dynasty. These women ruled Thebes and its surroundings almost independently, acting as sovereign for their fathers or brothers that ruled from north. They also left behind many monuments on which they are represented while doing various religious rituals which all helps in understanding their role in Egyptian society from the 16th until the 7th century BC.
