Today historians believe she was pharaoh of egypt for about 22 years. She was born in the 15th century BC, she is daughter os Tuthmose I and queen ahmose, they were both from royal families. Hatshepsut was the favorite of their three children. Her two brothers passed away before her so she was to gain the throne when her father died, she was destine to be the queen. It was one of the most unusual things to of had a female leader to nook after the kingdom \, almost unheard of. Although tuthmose son was meant to be king yet only for a few years because he passed away. Hatshepsut was meant to wait for her nephew to take over but she wanted to be a pharaoh just like she was. Hatshepsut couldn't hold on to the throne for ever, she unfortunately died and was buried in the valley, she will rest there forever.
