The year is 1155 BCE, and the pharaoh was just killed. Who was responsible for his untimely death? Were his assassins sent from abroad, or was he killed by someone he knew and trusted? This would become known as the harem conspiracy documented on the Turin Judicial Papyrus.
This ancient crime remained unsolved until recently, and we're breaking down potential areas where it took place, suspects, motives, and more.
