Nefertiti was the Great Royal Wife

of the Egyptian Pharaoh Akhenaten.

Nefertiti and her husband were

known for changing Egypt's religion

from a polytheistic religion to a

monotheistic religion.

She was made famous by a lime-

stone bust of her, now in Berlin's

Neues Museum. The bust is one of

the most copied works of ancient

Egypt. It was attributed to the

sculptor Thutmose, and it was found

in his workshop.

Facts about Cleopatra VII - glue

inside flip book.

Cleopatra VII was the last ruler to

rule Egypt and is the most famous of

all Egyptian Queens. After she died

Egypt became a Roman province. She

formed a liaison with Gaius Julius

Caesar that solidified her grip on the

throne that she shared with her

brother. She later elevated her son

with Caesar, Caesarion, to co-ruler.

After Caesar's assassination in 44 BC,

she aligned with Mark Antony in op-

position to Caesar's legal heir Gaius

Julius Caesar Octavian (later known

as Augustus). After losing the Battle

of Actium to Octavian's forces, An-

tony committed suicide. Cleopatra

soon followed suit, according to tradi-

tion killing herself by means of an asp

bite on August 12, 30 BC.

Queen from 51 b.c. - 30 b.c.

Hatshepsut meaning Foremost of No-

ble Ladies was the fifth pharaoh of

the eighteenth dynasty of Ancient

Egypt. She is generally regarded by

Egyptologists as one of the most suc-

cessful pharaohs, reigning longer than

any other woman of an indigenous

Egyptian dynasty. In comparison with

other female pharaohs, Hatshepsut's

reign was long and prosperous. She

was successful in warfare early in her

reign, but generally is considered to

be a pharaoh who inaugurated a long

peaceful era. Nobody knows for sure

how she died. After her reign, her

name and image were removed from

every monument.

Queen from 1479 b.c. - 14575 b.c.
