In “Hatshepsut: His Majesty, Herself”, by Catherine Andronik, she informs the reader about Hatshepsut and her role as an effective female pharaoh in Ancient Egypt. One supporting detail of how Hatshepsut was an effective ruler is that she was a regent. In paragraph eight, it states,”Until Tuthmosis lll was mature enough to be crowned pharaoh, what Egypt needed was a regent, an adult who could take control of the country.” This quote explains what Egypt needed and how Hatshepsut was a regent so she could take this role. In paragraph 11, it states,”Hatshepsut settled into her role as regent, she gradually took on more and more of the royal decision making.” This quote shows how Hatshepsut was an effective ruler by being a regent that let her

Hatshepsut could be that pharaoh- even if she happened to be a woman.” This quote interprets how Hatshepsut took an effective move by naming herself Maat. A third detail that analyzes how Hatshepsut impacted ancient Egypt by becoming pharaoh and taking a male’s title.

Hatshepsut would be shaped as royal, because she was “royal daughter of pharaoh Tuthmosis and his Great Wife Ahmose.” This shows how Hatshepsut was in the royal bloodlines, which gave her a better chance to rule as pharaoh. Being royal by blood gave Hatshepsut a better opportunity to rule as pharaoh and to leave an effective rule, like she did. Hatshepsut “had been training” to be pharaoh “since her earliest days by her father’s side” to be “a regent.” This makes it more clear that Hatshepsut was royal and prepared to be an effective ruler by having a role model by her side. Also, her royalty is described in this quote because her father was pharaoh and her mom was queen showing she is also royal by blood. Moreover, Hatshepsut’s character trait was loyalty, which showed her effective
