Queen Hatshepsut’s Family
Hatshepsut queen was a daughter of Thuthmose I and his queen Ahmes. When her father Tuthmose I died , possibly in the year of 1479 BC, his son, Tuthmose II, became king. Tuthmose II was married to Hatshepsut. (Tuthmose I had two wives, Mountnofrit (the mother of Tuthmose II), archaeologists tell us, ruled only three or four years, dying of a skin disease. He had a son, who was Hatshepsut's nephew. This son, Tuthmose III, was very young when his father died.
Due to the young age of the Pharaoh, Hatshepsut became his regent. They ruled together for a number of years until she declared herself Pharaoh perhaps when Thuthmose III was reaching manhood.
Her child
Hatshepsut’s only child was Neferure, her daughter by Thutmose II. In her early life she was cared for by Senemut, who was her tutor, and other officials. During her mother’s reign, Princess Neferure was active in the Egyptian court and held many royal titles bestowing important religious duties. The time of Neferure’s death and her place of burial are not yet known, though research suggests it may have occurred between 11 and 16 AD. Sculptures suggest Neferure may have married Thutmose III.
