Oedipus and Akhnaton: Myth and History: The tragic events in the life of the royal house of the hundred-gated Thebes

Is it conceivable that the Oedipus saga was not a creation of human fancy but is based on historical happenings? This question is posed by Immanuel Velikovsky in the present book. The most popular pharaonic family of all, Akhnaton with his wife Nefertiti and his son Tutankhamen, are exposed as the real protagonists of the Oedipus saga.
