Yes, we are talking about Merneith (dynasty I), Sobekneferu (dynasty XII), and Hatshepsut (dynasty XVIII).What do we have? What do we know? And what do we still have to uncover?-Stay curiousTravel with me, my socials, and more!https://beacons.ai/dirtdiaries.tenn

What would you do if your life was omitted, reduced to an overlooked footnote, or filed away as an anomaly? In this episode, Dan and Elizabeth turn a lens on the practice of history itself, interrogating the choices and power structures that have traditionally left women out of the history books. They retrace the lives of three women who once stood firmly in their moment: Hatshepsut, a pharaoh who consolidated power in Ancient Egypt; Joanna Ferrour, a peasant whose voice briefly direct the Peasants' Revolt of 1381; and Ada Lovelace, a Victorian thinker whose ideas arrived well before the world was ready for them. Each was successful in their time. And yet each of their world-changing contributions were quietly edited out, only to be rediscovered generations — or even millennia later. So what does it mean when the practice of history fails to record the world as it was? And what happens when history's failures reveal themselves, much later, as triumphs to a new generation? – As always, Dan's royal favourites can chime in anytime on the royal court on Patreon at patreon.com/thisishistory. And don't forget to listen to this season's accompanying bonus episodes for this miniseries, where Dan and Producer Al are dissecting the biggest historical failures as submitted by the royal favourites. In this episode, they discuss Catherine Parr's failed arrest, and what the Crusades reveal about success and failure. – A Sony Music Entertainment production.

Join us as Ocean House owner and award-winning author Deborah Goodrich Royce has a conversation with her New York Times & USA Today bestselling author Marie Benedict about her recent book Daughter of Egypt. About the Author: MARIE BENEDICT is the New York Times and USA Today bestselling author of The Queens of Crime, The Mitford Affair, Her Hidden Genius, The Mystery of Mrs. Christie, The Only Woman in the Room, Lady Clementine, Carnegie's Maid, The Other Einstein, and with Victoria Christopher Murray, the Good Morning America Book Club pick The Personal Librarian and the Target Book of the Year The First Ladies. All have been translated into multiple languages, and many have been selected for the Barnes & Noble Book Club, Target Book Club, Costco Book Club, Indie Next List, and LibraryReads List. She lives in Pittsburgh with her family. Book Summary: In the 1920s, archeologist Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon of Highclere Castle made headlines around the world with the discovery of the treasure-filled tomb of the boy Pharaoh Tutankhamun. But behind it all stood Lady Evelyn Herbert—daughter of Lord Carnarvon—whose daring spirit and relentless curiosity made the momentous find possible. Though not a trained archaeologist, she nonetheless pursued her passion, determined to leave her mark on the field and be treated as an equal by her male colleagues. Nearly 3,000 years earlier, another woman defied the expectations of her time: Hatshepsut, Egypt's lost pharaoh. From her father Thutmose I, she learned how to lead and through her political savvy she rose to guide her kingdom to prosperity. By her side was her trusted adviser and secret lover, Senemut. Though he was a commoner and she royalty, together they formed a partnership that allowed a dynasty to flourish. Though Hatshepsut's reign was bold and visionary it was also nearly erased from history.  When Evelyn becomes obsessed with finding Hatshepsut's secret tomb, she risks everything to uncover the truth about her reign. She must also confront the reality of the artifact trade—that despite regulations governing the removal of artifacts from Egypt, colonial antiquity collectors were selling them at alarming rates. Evelyn must rethink her assumptions as she resolves that valued artifacts must be kept in Egypt, their rightful home. But as danger closes in and political tensions rise, she must make an impossible choice: protect her father's legacy—or forge her own. Propelled by high adventure and deadly intrigue, Daughter of Egypt is the story of two ambitious women who lived centuries apart. Both were forced to hide who they were during their lifetimes, yet ultimately changed history forever.   For more information about Marie Benedict, visit authormariebenedict.com.

In celebration of Women's History Month, this episode is about four lesser-known goddesses of the ancient Egyptian afterlife whose primary roles were to protect, nourish, and occasionally punish those within the city of the dead. While famous deities often dominate pop culture, these four goddesses offer a unique window into how the Egyptians viewed the natural world and the social roles of mortal women. Discover the stories and archaeological footprints of Imentet who was the personification of the West; Khefethernebes and Meretseger who were both from the Theban Necropolis; and Hapetnebes from the Abydan Necropolis. From the royal tombs to the graffiti of tomb builders, this episode traces how the divine feminine provided a sense of security for both the physical body and the soul on its journey through the Duat.

In this episode, step inside Deir el-Medina, the remarkably well-preserved village of the artisans who built the royal tombs of ancient Egypt. Known in antiquity as Pa Demi or “the village”, this desert settlement near Thebes (modern Luxor) was home to the skilled workers of the Set Maat, the “Place of Truth,” where pharaohs like Tutankhamun, Ramesses II, Nefertari, and Hatshepsut were laid to rest. Through tomb art, legal documents, and everyday texts, Deir el-Medina offers one of the most intimate portraits of non-elite life in ancient Egypt. Explore the lives of three individuals whose stories survive in astonishing detail. Meet Ramose, the wealthiest man in the village, whose decorated tombs and appeals to fertility goddesses reveal private hopes for an heir. Follow his adopted successor, Qenherkhepeshef, a prolific scribe whose tomb preserved the famous “Book of Dreams,” a guide to omens written in red and black ink. Finally, Naunakhte, whose surviving will shows that women in the New Kingdom owned property and controlled how it was inherited. Offline Sources Cited: Blerk, Nicolaas J. 2021.

Viajamos a las entrañas de la Montaña Tebana de Luxor para dejarnos caer por el pozo que nos lleva a la cámara funeraria de Djehuty, tesorero de la reina Hatshepsut. Allí nos espera el egiptólogo José Manuel Galán para hablarnos de este misterioso personaje y de los avances de la última campaña arqueológica

Cristina de Suecia fue una reina adelantada a su tiempo. Ella es la protagonista del cronovisor esta semana junto a Jesús Callejo. Luego viajamos a las entrañas de la Montaña Tebana de Luxor para dejarnos caer por el pozo que nos lleva a la cámara funeraria de Djehuty. Allí nos espera el egiptólogo José Manuel Galán para hablarnos de este misterioso personaje del reinado de Hatshepsut. Una nueva sección de Los Libros de Candela nos trae recomendaciones literarias. Y acabamos con Engel de la Cruz, autora del libro Damas de corona y alcoba (Almuzara 2025) con quien conocemos los secretos de algunas mujeres principales, reinas y cortesanas, en la historia de España

Hatshepsut is one of ancient Egypt's most extraordinary figures: a pharaoh who deftly asserted her right to the throne, reigned over an era of prosperity, and commissioned some of the most iconic monuments of the era. But how did she rise from a royal princess and consort to become pharaoh in her own right? Emily Briffett is joined by Egyptologist Dr Campbell Price to explore Hatshepsut's remarkable story – from how she navigated public relations to the complex dynamics between her and Thutmose III.

Ancient Egypt may never stop fascinating us modern types, but as archeologists in recent centuries began to explore the ruined temples and tombs of one of humanity's oldest civilizations, they unearthed a puzzle: what had led to the seemingly violent attempt to erase a pharaoh whose monuments - intact or destroyed - were some of the finest works ever found?When they learned that Pharaoh Hatshepsut was a woman, their 18th and 19th century brains curdled, coming up with a story of an evil queen who stole her power from the rightful heir. None of this was true. Hatshepsut strode across her world's stage at a moment of rising stability and prosperity in Egypt, and added to it, preserving the throne as regent to a two-year old Pharaoh Thutmose III, and co-reigning alongside him as he matured into one of Egypt's greatest military leaders and pharaohs himself. Hatshepsut's reign widened the possibilities for a kingdom on the cusp of a Golden Age, and gifted humanity with some of the most marvelous pieces of antiquity discovered yet.

Viajamos a Luxor para conocer de cerca la excavación en la que trabaja desde hace 25 años José Manuel Galán, arqueólogo, egiptólogo, profesor del CSIC y director del 'Proyecto Djehuty'. Su equipo ha hecho importantes aportes a la egiptología, como el descubrimiento de un pequeño jardín de 4.000 años de antigüedad en un cementerio en el que fue enterrado Djehuty, alto funcionario de la reina Hatshepsut.

Egipto y su historia de 3,000 años siempre han fascinado. 300 faraones reinaron sobre el imperio más grande de su tiempo. Entre estos faraones, uno destacó entre los demás: Hatshepsut, una mujer cuyos 22 años de reinado fueron sinónimo de paz, prosperidad y renovación artística y arquitectónica. La reina Hatshepsut ascendió al rango supremo de faraón y construyó algunos de los monumentos más admirados de todo Egipto. Su nombre fue violentamente eliminado de estos templos por sus detractores, para erradicar su memoria para siempre. Esto marcará el comienzo de una reescritura terrible y violenta.

Thuthmosis III had a difficult relationship with Hatshepsut, who was, after all, both his aunt and stepmother. And Pharaoh. But does that mean he had the faces on her statues smashed? Or did he just want them turned off so his guys could fill in a big pothole? Archaeology may have the answer!

Howdy folks. In lieu of a narrative episode this week (while I recover from the quadruple-length Battle of Kadesh), I wanted to alert you to an interview I did for the Autocrat podcast (available on Spotify, YouTube, and the Autocrat website). In a lengthy conversation, we explore the full gamut of Egyptian history from the Creation, through Pharaonic era, the Late Bronze Age Collapse, and up to the Roman Empire in Egypt (and the "last hieroglyphs" ever recorded). It's a fun conversation, please check it out! Autocrat Podcast Website. I include an excerpt from the interview here about a recent article discussing Hatshepsut's shattered statues. Additionally, Dr. Colleen Darnell the Vintage Egyptologist will be joining us on the show soon to discuss New Kingdom military hero tales.

A Queen who dared to rule as King, Hatshepsut rose from Royal Consort to become one of Egypt's most successful and innovative Pharaohs.Ruling Egypt in the 15th century BCE, she defied expectations by assuming full Kingship – adopting the regalia, titles and divine authority traditionally reserved for men. Her reign was marked by political stability, flourishing trade and monumental architectural achievements, most notably her majestic mortuary temple at Deir el-Bahri. Yet, after her death, Hatshepsut's name and image were systematically erased from monuments and records, plunging her legacy into obscurity for centuries.In this episode of The Thinking Traveller, we are joined by Egyptologist Lucia Gahlin as she explores the rise and reign of this remarkable ruler, the myths surrounding her identity and the rediscovery that brought her back into the historical spotlight.Academy Travel is a leading specialist in small-group cultural tours, allowing you to travel with like-minded companions and learn from internationally renowned experts.

Everyone thought Hatshepsut—the most powerful woman to rule ancient Egypt—was erased from history by jealous men. But a new archaeological study reveals something stranger.In this episode, we explore who Hatshepsut really was, what her divine birth had to do with it, and how modern science is rewriting the story of one of Egypt's most mysterious pharaohs.Link to article:https://www.livescience.com/archaeology/ancient-egyptians/we-finally-know-why-queen-hatshepsuts-statues-were-destroyed-in-ancient-egyptLink to the study:https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/antiquity/article/afterlife-of-hatshepsuts-statuary/F22D001E29438008136B6DA04F57C627Punt:https://egypt-museum.com/relief-of-trading-scenes-of-punt/HELP SUPPORT OUR SHOW!https://buymeacoffee.com/whatsnewinhistoryIf you like what we do you can support the Fan of History project on https://www.patreon.com/fanofhistory or https://buymeacoffee.com/whatsnewinhistoryCustom Printed Shirts in 3 days!

Hatshepsut is one of the most famous pharaohs of Ancient Egypt, and not only because she was a woman. Her reign of more than twenty years was prosperous and saw an intense building activity that can still be admired, especially in Thebes (present-day Luxor). In tonight's story, I tell you about the New Kingdom of Ancient Egypt and the Eighteenth Dynasty. We will see how a princess and regent like Hatshepsut could occupy a throne that should have gone to her nephew Thutmose III, and what she achieved during her reign. I will also tell you of a few other queens of Egypt that preceded her and did occupy the throne of the pharaohs, like Sobekneferu, or could have reigned in uncertain circumstances, like Setibohr or Merit-Neith.

The new royal tomb, and how two 18th Dynasty rulers defined the "New Kingdom" as we know it. Prof. Aidan Dodson is a dedicated and prolific scholar, whose research covers many facets of ancient Egyptian history (and even WW1 warships!) His latest book, Thutmose III & Hatshepsut: Pharaohs of Egypt - Their Lives and Afterlives looks at how these two monarchs, and their followers, defined many of the aspects of "pharaonic culture" as we imagine it. Along the way, we also discuss the new royal tomb, its significance, and its connection to these famous figures. Prof. Aidan Dodson at Academia.edu and the University of Bristol.

Los arqueólogos del Valle de los Nobles de Egipto desvelan la vida secreta de personas anónimas del Antiguo Egipto, como una enfermera real, unos niños y una mujer que servía a ricos y famosos. A 160 kilómetros del Valle de los Reyes, el Valle de los Nobles es mil años más antiguo y está mucho menos explorado. Contiene uno de los mayores enclaves de tumbas intactas de Egipto. Dos equipos de arqueólogos descubren momias y objetos que nadie había visto en 4.000 años.Conozca a las reinas del antiguo Egipto, a través de las lecturas de los jeroglíficos, los arqueólogos intentan descubrir las verdaderas historias de Cleopatra y Hatshepsut. De todos los misterios ocultos de Egipto, las vidas de estas reinas que serían reyes se encuentran entre las más apasionantes. Inmensamente poderosas, crearon leyendas que han resistido el paso del tiempo. Ahora, los arqueólogos tratan de desvelar sus secretos, como dónde está enterrada Cleopatra. Incluso después de dos milenios, una tormenta de misterio se arremolina en torno a su vida... y su historia sigue viva.

News from the Field (2025) Part 2. The past excavation season has been extraordinarily productive. Beyond the new royal tomb of Thutmose II we also have a SECOND royal tomb, at Abydos! The Grand Egyptian Museum is finally opening in full. And archaeological teams throughout the land have uncovered wonderful things. We also remember some prominent scholars who passed away recently.

El último peldaño (28/02/2025) LA TUMBA PERDIDA DE TUTMOSIS II: ¿EL DESCUBRIMIENTO DEL SIGLO? Bajo el subsuelo de Valle de los Reyes, cerca de Luxor, en Egipto, los arqueólogos han encontrado lo que podría ser el descubrimiento del siglo, algo comparable al hallazgo en 1922 de la tumba de Tutankamón, la última morada del faraón Tutmosis II, algo que puede marcar un hito en la egiptología, proporcionando valiosa información sobre prácticas funerarias y cultura en tiempos de la XVIII dinastía de faraones, bajo la influencia de la enigmática reina Hatshepsut. Vamos a conocer las claves de este descubrimiento con el egiptólogo, escritor, divulgador y director del programa “SER HISTORIA”, Nacho Ares. INVESTIGACIÓN: EL MISTERIO DE LA MUJER DE ISDAL El 29 de noviembre de 1970, una familia de excursionistas paseaba por las inmediaciones de Isdalen, cerca de Bergen (Noruega); una zona que también se le conoce como “El Valle de la Muerte”, ya que cuenta con una larga historia de suicidios durante la Edad Media y en la actualidad por la gran cantidad de accidentes ocurridos. De repente se encontraron con el cuerpo semicalcinado de una mujer joven. Así arranca una historia de misterio, espionaje y crónica negra que se conoce con el nombre de “La Mujer de Isdal” y que llevamos siguiendo en nuestro programa desde 2018. Nuestro colaborador Enrique Lucas ha continuado con sus investigaciones sobre el caso. Esta noche nos va a contar sus últimos avances. PRESENTACIÓN DEL III CONGRESO NACIONAL DE HISTORIA Y MISTERIO EN EL MUSEO BARÓN DE BENIFAYÓ Ha tenido lugar la presentación oficial del III Congreso Nacional de Historia y Misterio de San Pedro del Pinatar, en el Museo Barón de Benifayó. El acto fue presidido por la Concejal de Cultura de dicha ciudad, Carmen María López.

Connie and the gang are back in Ancient Egypt

Israel kills nine Palestinians in Gaza air strikes "Israel's air strikes on Gaza have killed at least nine Palestinians, with several others wounded. Civil defence teams recovered five bodies near Gaza Municipality Park, while four more victims were found following a strike in Deir al-Balah, according to medical sources. A house in western Deir al-Balah was leveled, leaving destruction and casualties as rescue teams search for the missing. Israel's genocidal war in Gaza, now in its four-hundred sixty-first-day, has resulted in over forty-five-thousand-nine-hundred-thirty-six-fatalities and one-hundred-nine-thousand-two-hundred-seventy-four-wounded among Palestinians." Fighting at Chad presidency leaves 19 killed, several injured "Gunfire echoed in Chad's capital N'Djamena as gunmen attacked the presidential complex. At least nineteen-people, including-eighteen attackers have been killed and nine others wounded. Tanks rolled through the streets as civilians fled in panic. The violence comes after the Chinese top diplomat Wang Yi visited the country amid regional instability, including terrorist attacks and Chad's strained ties with France. President Mahamat Idriss Deby is facing challenges as Chad seeks new global alliances amidst its oil wealth and humanitarian struggles." Russia-Ukraine war kills 650 children among 12,300 civilian fatalities "Over twelve-thousand-three-hundred-civilians, including six-hundred-fifty-children, have died in the Ukraine war since twenty twenty-two, says the United Nations. A surge in drone, missile and glide bomb attacks has driven a thirty-percent spike in casualties, with five-hundred-seventy-four civilians killed between September and November twenty-twenty-four. The UN has warned that these actions may constitute to war crimes." Number of 'ghost guns' recovered in US surged 1,600% since 2017 "The United States' Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives study reveals one-thousand-six-hundred-percent surge in so-called ghost gun recoveries at crime scenes from twenty-seventeen to twenty-twenty-three. These untraceable firearms, built without serial numbers and bypassing background checks, were linked to over twenty-seven-thousand-crimes, including one-thousand-seven-hundred-homicides. The study underlines the urgent need for stricter gun regulations, as sixty-percent of trafficked firearms end up in the hands of convicted felons. The Biden administration is awaiting a Supreme Court decision on regulations aimed at curbing ghost gun proliferation." Archaeologists uncover Queen Hatshepsut's temple in Egypt "Archaeologists in Egyptian city of Luxor have made significant discoveries, including intact portions of Queen Hatshepsut's valley temple and the tomb of Queen Teti Sheri, grandmother of the first pharaoh of the New Kingdom. The team, led by renowned archaeologist Zahi Hawass, unearthed over 1,500 decorated stone blocks from Hatshepsut's temple, which was intentionally destroyed centuries ago. The findings offer invaluable glimpses into the lives and legacies of these powerful women who shaped ancient Egyptian history."

In this special solo episode, I dive deep into the transformative magic of Egypt and how it facilitates profound healing, awakening, and the integration of feminine wisdom. I share my personal experiences, the energetic shifts I've witnessed, and why sacred travel with intention holds such transformative power. We'll explore: How traveling to Egypt on a spiritual pilgrimage differs from traditional tourism. The sacred role of the Nile and its feminine energy as a void that holds star codes and temple consciousness. The importance of intention, energetic preparation, and openness for profound transformation. How the guidance of ancient Queens—Nefertari, Hatshepsut, Cleopatra, and Nefertiti—infuses the journey with embodied wisdom. What it's like to travel through Egypt's energetic chakra system, from the root at Abu Simbel to the star codes of the Great Pyramid Complex. How this sacred journey unlocks emotions, intuition, and remembrance of your sovereign feminine power. I also share details about my upcoming Sailing with the Queens journey in April 2025, including a special 4-week integration bonus for those who join by December 31, 2024.

Bajo los enormes e inhóspitos barrancos de Deir el Bahri, el templo funerario de Hatshepsut revela uno de los reinados más extraordinarios de la historia de Egipto. Plataformas escalonadas, pórticos con pilares y vivos relieves contrastan con un telón de fondo desértico, componiendo una de las obras maestras de la arquitectura más impresionantes del mundo, pero la mujer que lo encargó es aún más destacable. Hatshepsut, la hija mayor del faraón Tutmosis I, asumió el papel de reina regente durante la XVIII dinastía tras la muerte de su marido, Tutmosis II. Aunque su hijastro, Tutmosis III, finalmente alcanzó la mayoría de edad, ella adoptó el título de faraón y reinó durante más de dos décadas. Fue una de las primeras faraonas del antiguo Egipto.

In the searing heat of Aswan's Northern Quarry, Senenmut, chief architect to Pharaoh Hatshepsut, confronts an unthinkable setback – a deep crack in the granite obelisk destined to be the tallest ever built. With three sides carved and shaped, the crack threatens to end the project and displease Egypt's formidable ruler. As Senenmut ponders how to deliver this devastating news, the story unfolds against the backdrop of Hatshepsut's reign and her extraordinary architectural legacy. Written by Sarah Fleming, performed by Joanna Lumley.

Hatshepsut is now recognised as the most successful woman to rule Egypt as pharaoh! Her story is a bit of a rollercoaster in life and also in death, as historians have changed the way they've seen her over the years. Joining us to hear this epic story are the very funny New Yorkers, Ashley Hamilton and Claire Parker from Celebrity Memoir Book Club!

There was no way I could revisit the Cleopatra episode and score without getting Gina Berry's assistance! She was a guest on our epic Nefertiti and Hatshepsut episodes, and now she's here to talk all things Cleo. As ever, when the two of us get together, it will be at LEAST 2 hours of episode. I recommend listening to the Cleopatra episode first before diving into this discussion, but you do you. — Reference: Cleopatra: A Life by Stacy Schiff — Get 15% off all the gorgeous jewellery and accessories at common.era.com/vulgar or go to commonera.com and use code VULGAR at checkout — Get Vulgar History merch at vulgarhistory.com/store (best for US shipping) and vulgarhistory.redbubble.com (better for international shipping) — Support Vulgar History on Patreon  — Vulgar History is an affiliate of Bookshop.org, which means that a small percentage of any books you click through and purchase will come back to Vulgar History as a commission.

From wife and sister of a Pharaoh, to regent to eventually Pharaoh in her own right, Hatshepsut is one of the most compelling figures of the ancient world, a woman who sought to preserve her legacy in real time by carving her accomplishments in stone.

At the height of the 18th Dynasty (c.1495 - 1441 BCE), King Men-kheper-Ra Djehuty-messu (aka Thutmose III) ruled Egypt. The start of his reign was unusual, with power wielded primarily by the Queen-King Hatshepsut. But following Hatshepsut's death, Thutmose would rise to the challenges of rule. In this episode, we explore the King's upbringing, his rise-to-power, and the famous Battle of Megiddo. Compilation of previously released material. Date: c.1495 - 1441 BCE.
