WHAT DOES QUEENING AN EMPIRE MEAN?

HAVE YOU EVER HEARD OF QUEEN

HATSHEPSUT?

Well for those of you haven’t let me give you a brief background on who she was.

Hatshepsut (1479-1458 BCE) she was the first

female ruler of ancient Egypt to reign as

Queen and a pharaoh. 

  She is also said to be one of the most successful 

Monarch in Egyptian history. She was cited to be 

the most controversial and celebrated woman 

of egypt because of what she did in her ruling.

She held many high honors such as Amun (Gods

wife) The highest honor a queen can have.

  It was when her husband/Brother died not having 

a of age son to become ruler yet, Hatshepsut

during her seventh year of her regency she changed

the rules and had her self crowned herself pharaoh 

of egypt. She did everything a pharaoh would do 

in power even changed her look as far as growing

a beard. She had all her statues changed to give her

the look of pharaoh for history. 

   As pharaoh she did everything the same as her male

counter would have such as building projects, military 

exhibitions helping bring wealth into the land. She

is also known for one of most important expeditions

known in history Hatshepsut expedition to Punt(modern

day Somalia).

  HATSHEPSUT had so many highlights in her ruling all

to be noted in her temple at Deir el-Bahri. Her demise 

Was found to be from an abscess from a tooth extraction 

her stepson took rule after her.

He did not like what she stood for and was

the one who dismantled her statues

and anything dealing with her legacy. Hatshepsut 

name still prominent in Egypt’s history.

 Hatshepsut is a major influence to the Queen of

what i do brand, Her confidence in being ruler of many

things is what this brand entails. Wether it’s from

work life to home life we are the ones in charge.

Being that the Queen in every part of history is the

most important piece to any empire we give gratitude 

to the ones who paved the way before us.

THANK YOU

HATSHEPSUT
