It is unknown what exactly happened to Kiya after Akhenaten's Year 11. It is possible that she died or was exiled. It is unknown who Kiya is or where Kiya came from. Kiya could have been a princess named Tadukhipa from Mitanni. The alliance between Egypt and Mitanni might have ended, resulting in Kiya returning home.
