you are still trying to push the same thing despite having been given extensive information on the subject that you dont know about. size is related to social status in egyptian art. husband larger than wife, parents larger than kids, master larger than servants. so it goes. it is actually not too different in other political depictions, even in middle age art, this was as such. yet there were no giant kings despite being depicted larger than others.
moreover, there are NO 'giants' found among endless number of mummies discovered in egypt. the selection is quite large, because not only classes from middle class and up, but also lower classes were mummifying their dead as much as they can. (not as complete a process as the rich got, however still mummifying). in large burial zones for such poor people, there are no mummies of extraordinary size. not to mention that some 'elite' of higher status would not be buried in such places. not surprisingly, there are NO 'oversized' human bodies found among endless number of mummies discovered either in middle-upper middle class burial zones.
approximate number of mummies found around 4000 mummies (up till today) of which 500 or so were kings. among them, there are no 'oversized' mummies'.
especially when we remember that, there were NO 'oversized' mummies found among the mummies in valley of kings, the place for burial of people who were always depicted larger than any other person they were pictured in their lives (and the walls of their tombs), situation becomes much more clear.
moreover, with your headgear proof, you have ignored the hairdo, and headgear of the woman that was going to wear the hairdress. you could as well snap a snake from head ornament of akhenaton and claim that he was a giant, ignoring the headpiece he wore the thing on.
you are believing what you see in conspiracy sites way too much.
