One of the first people known to change their gender was an ancient Egyptian pharaoh NPR art director and illustrator Jackie Lay tells the story of Hatshepsut, who is widely regarded as one of the greatest pharaohs in Egypt's history — but whose legacy was erased for over 3,000 years.

#Hatshepsut regeerde uiteindelijk als man maar bleef ook haar vrouwennaam en zowel mannelijke als vrouwelijke aanspreekvorm gebruiken.

Door een haatcampagne na haar dood werden afbeeldingen van Hatshepsut als man stukgeslagen en haar faam als heerser verzwegen.

The Pharaoh #Hatshepsut was a woman. But in her role as Pharaoh, she presented herself as a man. When you became the Pharaoh, you became a human incarnation of the male God Horus, and the Egyptians figured this applies just as well to a woman as it does to a man.

Carved and painted wall of ancient Egyptian hieroglyphs, featuring rows of symbols such as ankhs, birds, scarab beetles, animals, and sun disks in red, yellow, blue, and green on pale stone above a doorway in a temple. Symbols in cartouches in bottom and middle registers on right are clear.  Symbols on top and middle registers on left appear to have been chiseled away.

Some think that any attention, even bad attention, is better than no attention at all. ("All press is good ...")

Unfortunately, damnatio memoriae and abolitio memoriae have also tended to draw attention to the empty space, granting further fame, even if infamy

Hatshepsut, la reina faraón del antiguo Egipto Su gobierno marcó una etapa de prosperidad y gran innovación artística

📜Achegámonos á figura de #Hatshepsut, a raíña-faraón que gobernou Exipto nunha das súas etapas de maior esplendor. A súa historia, silenciada durante séculos, lembra que o poder tamén foi exercido por mulleres, mesmo en contextos que lles eran adversos.

#Egypt's greatest ruling queen, #Pharaoh #Hatshepsut, died on #ThisDayInHistory in 1458 BCE. She started as regent but usurped the throne & held it for 21 years, during which she expanded foreign trade & kept the peace. Her #FuneraryTemple is one of the finest of the #NewKingdom.
