Harem Conspiracy Papyri
   An archive of papyri that date to the reign of Ramesses IV detailing the investigation of a conspiracy against his predecessor, Ramesses III. It appears that the king was assassinated in an attempt by a lady of the harem and certain officials to put her son, Pentaweret, on the throne. The conspiracy was thwarted by the king’s appointed heir. The judgements of the special court are recorded. Many of the culprits were sentenced to death or suicide.
