Answer 1

Answer: Hatshepsut Sphinx : Hatshepsut was a strong-willed woman who would not let anyone or anything stand in her way. In the second year of her co-regency with the child king Tuthmosis III she subverted his position and proclaimed herself pharaoh and King of Upper and Lower Egypt and ruled for about 20 years from about 1479 to 1457 BC. Hatshepsut was protrayed, as in this sphinx, with all the regalia of kingship, even down to the offical royal false beard.

HEYA MATE  !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HERE IS UR ANSWER.............!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hatshepsut means “Foremost of Noble Ladies” was one of only two female pharaohs in Ancient Egyptian history, who ruled as full Pharaoh not just as a regent for a younger male relative. She is the first significant female ruler in documented history. Born in 1507 BC, Hatshepsut came to the throne of Egypt in 1478 BC. Officially, she ruled jointly with Thutmose III, who had ascended to the throne the previous year as a child of about two years old. Hatshepsut declared herself king sometime between the ages 2 and 7 of the reign of her stepson and nephew, Thutmose III.

This seven-ton granite Sphinx of Hatshepsut has the body of a lion and a human head wearing a head-cloth and royal beard. The statue has the usual symbolic, powerful muscles of the lion and the idealised face used for pharaohs. This sphinx is one of a number granite sphinxes that once stood in Hatshepsut’s mortuary temple at Deir el-Bahri.

Another Hatshepsut statue in the MET is the “Seated Statue of Hatshepsut” which is a life-size limestone statue. It shows Hatshepsut in the ceremonial attire of the Egyptian king. Many of the statuses of Hatshepsut were smashed into fragments or defaced at the orders of Hatshepsut’s nephew and successor Thutmose III and dumped in quarries.  Thutmosis III ordered that Hatshepsut name and memory be removed as a Pharaoh from Egyptian history and ordered her statues destroyed and her achievements erased.
