Hatshepsut the fifth pharaoh of Egypt and also the first female that will never be forgotten, but Egyptians wanted to erase her from history and they didn't want to leave a trace behind. It was found centuries later, but what we find special about her is truly amazing. Hatshepsut is the daughter of King Thutmose I. She married at the age of 12 to her half-brother Thutmose II. Neferure, Hatshepsut's daughter was a female and too young to rule. Before it was time for Thutmose I to take the throne, he suddenly died. His son was too young to rule. That left Hatshepsut. Hatshepsut's wanted her people to respect her as Pharaoh, so she wanted to be portrayed as a male with a beard. She is one of Egypt most successful pharaoh, also had the longest reign ruling for 20 years and 1500 BCE. At first Hatshepsut was a co ruler sitting by her husband side's as Queen. Hatshepsut as a pharaoh Egypt grew. She built temple Djeser djeseru and conquered new lands. Hatshepsut died in 1458 B.C. There was a theory that her step son Thutmose III tried to erase Hatshepsut from history by destroying monuments, statues, hieroglyphics, and artifacts. Thutmose III was finally put on the throne. He was very hateful of his aunt. Even when Thutmose III tried to ruin Hatshepsut monument and erase hieroglyphics about her we still found out about Hatshepsut and she is truly amazing. As time passes we might find out more about the queen who became king.
