Tuya (queen)
Queen consort of ancient Egypt
Tuya (also called Tuy or Muat-Tuya[1]) was the wife of Pharaoh Seti I of the Nineteenth Dynasty of Egypt and mother of Tia, Ramesses II, and perhaps Henutmire.
She was the daughter of Raia, who was a military officer based on his title of Lieutenant of the chariotry.[2] Tuya's daughter Tia was married to a high-ranking civil servant who was also called Tia.[2]
As the mother of Ramesses II, she enjoyed a privileged existence of a respected king's mother and was allowed the opportunity to correspond with the Hittite royal court after the Year 21 peace treaty between Egypt and Hatti put in place by Ramesses II.
