The female 'kings' of ancient Egypt


Still Waters

Recommended Posts

The evidence for female rulers is as fragmentary as it is for many male counterparts - with few known dates of birth or death, and no known portraits for many. Yet, only the women's titles are routinely downgraded or dismissed, even when the evidence reveals that some, like those profiled on these pages, did rule Egypt as pharaoh.

Very interesting. Though the more latter Ptolemaic queens must have been less powerful and less independent than the female rulers of the oldest dynasties.
