Hatshepsut - The Queen of the Middle Kingdom
Hachepsut ruled egypt for 21 years, building massive monuments and presiding over a stable, well ordered state. At first she ruled as regent on behalf of her under aged nephew, tutmosa the third. Later, however, she acted as pharaoh in her own right, with all the regalia, titles and above all, power associated with the office. Hachepsult's mortuary temple is one of the most spectacular monuments in all ancient egyptian history.
