Hatshepsut was chief wife to the pharaoh, Thuthmose ii, and he was also her brother.
He had a son and heir by another wife (thuthmose iii). Thuthmose ii died, leaving thuthmose iii , a child, as heir . Originally, Hatshepsut was supposed to be co-regent, but she soon claimed the throne for herself by claiming to be the daughter of Ra. She had wide spread support. She died of natural causes and was succeded by Thuthmose iii.

♥Cleopatra was the first Egyptian woman to becoem a pharaoh!!!♥ answered by shanikwa tomlinson Cleopatra wasn't the first woman pharaoh.. The very first known woman to assume the role of pharaoh was Queen HATSHEPSUT. And Cleopatra was the LAST pharaoh.
She was the 5th Pharaoh of the 18th dynasty (1508-1458 BC) and is considered by egyptologists as being the most successful female Pharaoh.
