Hatshepsut

Categories: Social Science
  • Hatshepsut, born in 1508 BC, was the second female Pharaoh to rule both parts of Egypt, Upper and Lower. Her reign lasted for 22 years. She was also one of the most successful Pharaoh's of all time. Hatshepsut is believed to have died in 1458 BC from a blood infection, possibly from an infected molar, as revealed by CT scans done on her body. To some, she is the princess that found Moses in the river, although it is widely disputed by others.
