1) h e a u h p s s t - She dressed up pretending to be a man. Why?
ReplyDeleteThis is Queen Hatshepsut (the name in Egypt means leader of noble women).
When her husband died, she became a strong woman ruler. She held power for 20 years before her step son became King. Her step son was not king initially, because when his father died he was just five years old. But beacuse women could not rule for a long time, Hatshepsut dressed up like a male and was seen as a man, this was her way of holding power for a longer then usual time. When she died her step son broke all her statues and rubbed her name from all monuments in Egypt.
2) a c p o t l e a r - A famous Queen who married a Roman Soldier.
This is Queen Cleopatra (the name in Egypt means fame of her father).
Queen Cleopatra was the seventh queen to have that name, and was the last pharaoh of a famous dynasty in the Greco-Roman period. She was Queen from 51 to 30 BC. Cleopatra was originally a ruler alongside her father, Ptolemy XII Auletes. After he died she ruled with her brothers, and married one of them too, Ptolemy XIV (this was normal back then) but eventually she became the sole ruler. Later on Queen Cleopatra married the famous Julias Ceaser, who was leader of the new Roman Empire. Cleopatra was the only Greek pharaoh who learned the speak the Egyptian language.
3) r i f e t e i n t - She was married to Akhenaten
This is Queen Nefertiti (the name in Egypt means beautiful beloved one).
Queen Nefertiti was the wife of Akhenaten and she helped him establish a new city at Amarna on the east bank of the River Nile in Egypt. She is the only one queen that has a famous bust, showing her head wearing a crown and necklace rich with jewels. Often Nefertiti is confused with Nefertari, who was the favorite wife of Ramesses the Great around 1275 BC.
