Cleopatra
Ra ruled the other deities of ancient Egypt, like pharaoh ruled his/her people.
From the ancient times [2600 BCE] apart the pyramids there were the Pharaoh Palaces of Upper Egypt, the Temples and the Sphynx. From the Hellenistic period of Egypt [290 BCE] there was the Alexandria Lighthouse [Pharos] and the Library of Alexandria.
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.
Hatshepsut's reign, which lasted from around 1479 to 1458 B.C., was one of the longest for a female pharaoh in ancient Egypt, but it was not the longest overall in the 14th century B.C. Pharaohs like Ramesses II, who reigned much later, are known for longer reigns. Hatshepsut's duration in power was significant, particularly for a woman, but several other pharaohs had longer reigns in the broader timeline of ancient Egypt.
The responsibilities of a Pharaoh were quite diverse. He was the political and religious leader of ancient Egypt and had the duty of maintaining law and order and fighting enemies among other responsibilities.
The first period of Persian rule over Egypt also known as the 27 dynasty ended in 402 BC in Egypt. Which gained independence under a series of native dynasties the last of these Dynasties, the 30th, proved to be the last native royal house of Ancient Egypt and ending with the kingship of Pharaoh Nectanebo II, the third and last Pharaoh of the Thirtieth Dynasty of Egypt as well as the last native ruler of Ancient Egypt.
The word "Pharaoh" originates from the ancient Egyptian term "per-aa," which means "great house" or "palace." It initially referred to the royal palace and later came to denote the rulers of ancient Egypt themselves. The term was adopted into Greek as "Pharaō," which then influenced Latin and other languages. Over time, "Pharaoh" became synonymous with the king of Egypt in both historical and cultural contexts.
The most famous female pharaoh that ruled in ancient Egypt was Hatshepsut. She, unlike many other pharaohs, didn't rule to conquer land, but to make peace and help build civilization with other areas.
The sarcophagus was constructed in ancient Egypt around 7,500 to 5,000 years ago. It was used for people like the Pharaoh and other important people.
The Pharaoh is known to be the political and the living religious figure of ancient Egypt. The Pharaoh was known, or seen, as a living God and that is why everyone looked up to him for guidance and followed his rule. Except there was of course priests, and other aristocrats and that sord of thing.
The succession was through the female line, which is why pharaohs married all their female relatives so thee was no question of other claimants appearing.
The ruler of ancient Egypt was called a Pharaoh, not a king or queen or prince or princess. Those did exist in other countries at that time, however. Monarchy is an ancient human institution.
