Abar

Hieroglyphic name of Abar

Abar was a royal woman from Napata, in Nubia. She was the mother of Taharqa (690-664 B.C.E.) of the Nubian Twenty-fifth Dynasty of Egypt and the daughter of  Kashta and  Queen Pebatma. She  was  the  wife  of Piankhi (750-712 B.C.E.). It is not noted if Abar traveled northern to see her sons enthronisation upon the death of his herald, Shebitku, but Taharqa called Napata to build  new  religious  chancels,  strengthening  his  particular base there. In 671 B.C.E., he passed as an deport when Essarhaddon, the Assyrian king (681-668 B.C.E.), overcome  the  Egyptian  denials  on  his  second  seek  to conquer the Land of the Nile.
