Amenemhat III:

Amenmhat III

Amenemhat III ruled Egypt for 45 years. His reign was marked by a great interest in agricultural development in Fayoum. Although he reigned for a long time, few are the remaining inscriptions that mention Amenemhat III. Over 90% of these inscriptions were found in Sinai and outside the Egyptian borders.

Amenemhat III built himself, like Snefrou did, two pyramids: one of 114 x 114 meters at Dahchour and the other one of 112 x 112 at Hawara.

Queen Hatchepsout:

Hatchepsout was the only remaining child of king Thutmosis I (who was not of royal blood) and princess Ahmes (who was-most probably-the sister of Amenophis I) after the death of her 2 brothers: prince Amenmes and prince Ouadjmes and her sister princess Neferoubity(or Akhbitneferou).

But Thutmosis I had a son from a second marriage:Amenophis II who married his half sister Hatchepsout. Thutmosis II had a daughter from Hatchepsout:Neferoure and a son from his concubine Isis.The boy was the famous Thutmosis III.

After the death of Thutmosis II,his son,Thutmosis III-who was only 4 or 5 years old-took over the throne.Two years after Thutmosis III's reign,Hatchepsout got rid of him and took hold of Egypt. But how did a lady rule Egypt?
Hatchepsout,to convince the people that she was the King,claimed one of the most original stories of the egyptian history:
Hatchepsout claimed that god Amon took the form of her father and visited her mother who was sleeping.The lovely smell of the god woke her up.Amon revealed his divine form and his love penetrated Ahmoses' body. Amon told Ahmoses that Hat Shepset(the one who has the head of the nobles) would be the name of the girl he placed in her body and that she(Hat Shepset) would rule Egypt. Moreover,Amon called Hatchepsout "my daughter" which allows her to become king.
This story is written on the walls of the divine birth room in Karnak temple.
