WHY Hatshepsut Was Erased From History | The Queen Who Became Pharaoh (Ep.3)

They didn’t erase her when she died.

But this wasn’t random.

The process was systematic… deliberate… and carried out long after her death.

This erasure happened only when she was no longer a threat.

So why remove a pharaoh from history…
years after her power had already ended?
