Hatshepsut (c. 1500 BCE – 1458 BCE) was a ruler of the Eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt. After her husband Djehutimesu II died, she took power as the regent for her stepson Djehutimesu III and later proclaimed herself ruler in her own right. Djehutimesu III returned to power after her death and ordered all portraits of her to be destroyed.[1]
