Welcome to The Real History. A blog where I talk about the real historical inspirations for my YA fantasy debut “Treasures of Egypt.”
King Hatshepsut—His Majesty, Herself
In Egypt’s long history, few figures capture the imagination like King Hatshepsut of Egypt. Hers is a tale not just of power, but of the sheer force of character and intellect. Hatshepsut's journey from queen to Pharaoh is as remarkable today as it was in the 15th century B.C., and her legacy continues to inspire and resonate throughout Egypt and the world. Today, we will discover the true story behind Treasures of Egypt’s fictional interpretation of Hatshepsut.
