Abstract

The ancient Egyptians remarkably held long-established concepts that lasted for around three thousand years about everything, but especially about Kingship. Furthermore, when it comes to how they perceived women acquiring authority and leading the empire as a King, different theories come up. The main questions this research is attempting to answer are: were the ancient Egyptian Queens influential? were they valued? And was the way ancient Egyptians perceived the presence of women in ruling power, only exclusive to them? The research presents the extraordinary women who served as reigning Queens, such as Sobekneferu, Twosret, and of course Hatshepsut, who took matters into her own hands and crowned herself as reigning Queen. It also discusses the well-known and great ancient Egyptian Regent and Consort Queens, and it displays some of the artwork/remains that clarify and confirms their stature
