Hatshepsut was the fifth pharaoh of the Eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt, reigning from around 1479 to 1458 BCE. She is notable for being one of the first female pharaohs and for her extensive building projects, including her famous mortuary temple at Deir el-Bahari. Hatshepsut initially ruled as regent for her stepson Thutmose III but later declared herself pharaoh, adopting male regalia and titles to solidify her authority. Her reign is characterized by trade expansion, particularly with Punt, and a relative period of peace and prosperity in Egypt.
