Hatshepsut Denisse Lopez Hatshepsut’s name originally meant spirit double of Ra. She was the daughter of King Thutmose l. She married her half-brother King Thutmose the ll. She ruled with her husband for a few years and when her husband died, she became the first female pharaoh of Kemet.
In “Hatshepsut: His Majesty Herself”, by Catherine M. Andronik, she informs the reader about Hatshepsut and her role as an effective female pharaoh in Ancient Egypt. A supporting detail of her effective rule is in paragraph 8, when the text states, “what Egypt needed was a regent, an adult who could take control of the country.” This shows that Hatshepsut had practice as a regent before becoming a pharaoh. Another supporting detail that shows that Hatshepsut had practice before her reign.
Hatshepsut was a distinguished royal who was the daughter of a ferocious pharaoh and the wife of a pharaoh.
Hatshepsut Inherited the title “God’s wife of Amun”, recorded her divine birth and built a memorial temple at Deir el-Bahri, divine oracle, this emphasised her right to rule, her influence in the cult of Amun-Re that later pharaohs would copy as well as her divine birth depicted being on the walls to claim the title of pharaoh and the right to rule. Displayed the religious status and how important the God’s were to the Egyptians during the 18th dynasty. Marc van de Mieroop mentions that Hatshepsut "has become one of the most celebrated women of Egypt”. Hatshepsut also had trading expedition that she authorized, which brought back numerous materials, including trading expeditions to the Land of Punt. Through this she introduced new materials such as ivory, ebony, gold, leopard skins and incenses from Punt which advanced Egypt in new materials.
Hatshepsut was next in line after him and was more than ready and qualified to run the dynasty. This paper will discuss three of Hatshepsut’s biggest accomplishments as Pharaoh and explain why she was such a successful leader. My research will show her to be a success through great building efforts, establishing trade for her people, and keeping peace for her people during her entire reign.
Instead of war and conquest, Hatshepsut built monuments within her country to proclaim its power.” This quote that she wanted to work on the inside of egypt and make it peaceful instead of war and conflict. In addition in paragraph 14 it states,” So the people of egypt would take her seroucly she made herself look like a man in her role as pharaoh.” This quote shows the determination of hatshepsut and that she
Stepping beside Tuthmosis III shows that Hatshepsut wanted her people, the Egyptians, to know that she was equal to Tuthmosis III, or somewhat as powerful as Tuthmosis III. We also learned that Hatshepsut was worried about continuing Egypt’s traditions. While she tried to follow Egypt’s customs, she accomplished another intelligent thing. Hatshepsut knew that other pharaohs had a throne name when they ruled, so she decided to do so as well. Hatshepsut was clever about what she named herself, though.
This serves as official documentation of her coronation, by referring to herself as the successor of Amun's throne in the inscription, Hatshepsut clearly asserts her status as a deity. Her power over Egypt and her legitimacy to rule as the head of New Kingdom Egypt are proven within the inscription. This suggests that she was seen as a divinely appointed monarch and was held in high regard by her subjects due to her special status. Hatshepsut's prominence is further demonstrated by the inscription of her coronation, which emphasised both her relationship with the gods and the succession of the throne. Furthermore, it demonstrated her legitimacy, which was essential to her rule since in Ancient Egypt, monarchs were thought to have semi-divine power; as a result, a ruler whose legitimacy and divine authority were questioned would not endure for very long.
What were some of the historical events associated with your individual? Queen Nefertiti was a very powerful woman and she ruled Egypt as queen with her husband Pharaoh Akhenaten from 1353 to 1336 BC. Queen Nefertitit was also known as chief wife of Pharaoh Akhenaten She ruled for 12 years and was queen in the 14th century BC. She was born in Thebes, Egypt and she is said to have died around 1331 BC.
In 1479 B.C.E. Thutmose II passed the power of Pharaoh to co-ruler Hatshepsut-his sister/wife-because his son, Thutmose III, was too young. During her reign, she proved she was worthy by becoming one of the “most ambitious builders in Egyptian history” (Cole and Symes 34). However, after ruling for 21 years her legacy was tested. Scholars found defaced statues and portraits of Hatshepsut. Some believed Thutmose III was slighted by Hatshepsut and he defaced her image.
Learning about the Accomplishments of Ramses II There are many well-known Ancient Egyptian pharaohs, but one of the most popular is Ramses II. This isn't really surprising because he had accomplished a lot of things during his time. He also had an unusually long reign — he was in power for 67 years — which not only earned him recognition but also turned him into a god. (Egyptian pharaohs became gods if they stayed in power for 30 years.)
Hatshepsut also maintained her role as Egypt’s highest priestess. She continues her temple duties as God’s Wife of Amen. According to Egyptian worship many gods and goddesses. These were the rulers who drove the Hyksos out of Egypt and their native city was Thebes, which then became the leading city in Egypt. They believed that their local deity, Amen, had guided them in their victory and the cult rose to national importance.
There is no surprise that Thutmose III became one of the supreme pharaohs of the New Kingdom given the leadership and opportunities afforded to him through his co-regency with Hatshepsut. In truth, judging from the attack on her monuments, Hatshepsut was perhaps a little too good in concerns of being a pharaoh.
Hatshepsut’s reign as pharaoh strongly emphasised her close relationship and devotion to the god Amun. According to Lawless, Hatshepsut did more than any other Pharaoh to raise the status of Amun beyond all other gods. She achieved this by emphasising her filial relationship with the god, most evident in the divine birth scene in her mortuary temple at Deir El Bahri and through the Oracle, which was later inscribed on the walls of the Red Chapel at Karnak. These pieces of evidence are vital in explaining Hatshepsut’s devotion to Amun. However, the relationship between Hatshepsut and Amun was a reciprocal arrangement as through the glorification of her father she promoted the priesthood and rewarded them for their support towards her legitimacy which led to their growth in wealth and political power during her reign.
All discrimination, racism, and stereotyping against the Native Americans, was bound to happen the day Columbus landed in the Caribbean; after that it just went downhill. The English and French colonists joined the Spanish, and their colonization of the north-west was what led to the plight of the native population. Then the treaties started rolling over the native peoples, which at first seemed like good agreements, but then the treaties began to be violated. Some of the worst violations were made against the Cherokee Nation.
