Faraonas -Z

Did you know that the first female pharaoh in history had dozens of people sacrificed to be buried next to her so she would have company in the afterlife? That Queen Sobekneferu led the first major marketing campaign to achieve her ascension to the throne? That Hathsepsut made the Egyptian people believe she was the daughter of the god Amun in order to be crowned pharaoh? That the empty socket on the famous Bust of Nefertiti was sculpted that way on purpose, and not because the queen was missing an eye? For generations, much has been written about the illustrious pharaohs who ruled Upper and Lower Egypt. However, although the throne was forbidden to women, there were a number of women who came to occupy the highest position in the pyramid of Egyptian power. This book is especially dedicated to them, but also to other queens who, without holding the title of pharaoh, assumed their role as consorts or regents with the same intrepidity demonstrated by the best pharaohs, participating in the leadership of the State at key moments and bringing it to its maximum splendor.
