Egypt's first female pharaoh

Summary

The daughter of Thutmose I, a powerful Egyptian pharaoh, Hatshepsut was not destined to take the throne because of her gender. When the death of her father and his successor left Egypt without a pharaoh, she stepped into a powerful position unlike any woman before her. Despite an attempt to remove Hatshepsut from history, her legacy remains as Egypt's first female pharaoh
