    Ruling for 11 years, Seti I, whose throne name was Menmaatre Seti, or “Established is the Justice of Re,” was a somewhat obscure yet important pharaoh of Egypt's 19th Dynasty. He was a great builder, with the Hypostyle Hall at Karnak and the Temple at Abydos being some of his greatest feats in this field. In contrast, he was a fierce warrior, leading many campaigns into Syria and Lybia, and most notably capturing the strategic Syrian city of Kadesh. But most importantly to ancient Egypt as we know it, he was known as the “Repeater of Births” for his great restoration of the country. Ancient Egypt may not have thrived without Seti I ruling for 11 years.…

    Hatshepsut, the elder daughter of the 18th-dynasty king Thutmose I and his consort Ahmose, was married to her half-brother, Thutmose II. Hatshepsut bore one daughter, Neferure, but no son. When her husband died 15 years after becoming pharaoh and the throne was passed to his son Thutmose III, born to Isis, a lesser harem queen. As Thutmose III was an infant, Hatshepsut acted as regent for the young king. But by the end of his seventh year, she had been crowned king and adopted a full royal titulary. According to one of her father’s courtiers, ‘Hatshepsut carried on the affairs of The Two Lands according to her own ideas. Egypt was made to work in submission for her’ .
