Hatshepsut was a woman, daughter of Pharaoh Thutmose I. She was married to her step brother Thutmose II, and thus became the queen of Egypt when she was about twelve. Hattshepsut was the longest ruling Pharaoh female, who ruled Egypt, about twenty years in the fifteenth century BC. One of her greatest achievements was the expansion of ancient Egypt's trade routes. Thus Egypt was supplied with gold, wood, ivory, and resin.
