She was both, according to the conventions of her time.

Hatshepsut was a pharaoh (king) of ancient Egypt. As such, she was considered to be both a person and a god. Pharaohs were believed to be incarnations of the god Horus in life, and of Osiris in death.

Hatshepsut was the 5th pharaoh of the 18th dynasty, one of the rare women to rule Egypt as pharaoh. She reigned for about 21 years between about 1479 C.E. and 1458 C.E., longer than any other female pharaoh.
