Since Thutmose III was too young to assume the throne unaided, Hatshepsut served as his regent. Initially, Hatshepsut bore this role traditionally until, for reasons that are unclear, she claimed the role of pharaoh. Technically, Hatshepsut did not 'usurp' the crown, as Thutmose the III was never deposed and was considered co-ruler throughout her life, but it is clear that Hatshepsut was the principal ruler in power. He was her nephew.

Queen Hatshepsut gained power as co-regent with her stepson Thutmose III in around 1478 BCE. After her husband and Thutmose III's father, Thutmose II, died, Hatshepsut assumed the role of regent until Thutmose III reached adulthood. She eventually declared herself pharaoh, breaking with tradition, and ruled Egypt for more than 20 years.
