Hatchepsut: The Female Pharaoh | Joyce Tyldesley

1 post | 2 read | 6 to read

Queen - or, as she would prefer to be remembered King - Hatchepsut was an astonishing woman. Brilliantly defying tradition she became the female embodiment of a male role, dressing in men's clothes and even wearing a false beard. Forgotten until Egptologists deciphered hieroglyphics in the 1820's, she has since been subject to intense speculation about her actions and motivations. Combining archaeological and historical evidence from a wide range of sources, Joyce Tyldesley's dazzling piece of detection strips away the myths and misconceptions and finally restores the female pharaoh to her rightful place.

CouronneDhiver Stacked! She‘s such an interesting queen. Have you read it? 5y

LeahBergen @CouronneDhiver Yes, I really enjoyed it. I was a bit Hatshepsut-obsessed in my youth after discovering Child of the Morning in my junior high school library. 😄
