While people generally think of the pharaohs of ancient Egypt as a male, there were a handful of females who took on the role of pharaohs. One of these was Hatshepsut who became one of the most powerful and is still well known today. Initially a queen to the reigning pharaoh Thutmose II, she became a regent with Thutmosis III, then ruled in her own right as an 18th Dynasty pharaoh.
This presentation will take you through her story as a strong woman, from a title of King’s Daughter, then a Kings Great Wife, to a King who knew what was best for her beloved Egypt and how after her death, many of her monuments were destroyed and her name left off the Kings list.
