  9. Who were some important Pharaohs?? • Pharaohs ruled Egypt for more than 3,000 years. Do you think all of them were good leaders?? • NO!! Some even lost their power to foreign invaders. But, each time that happened, a new pharaoh rose up to drive the foreigners out. • Queen Hatshepsut and Ramses II were two of Egypt’s most famous rulers. • Each one used the pharaoh’s power in a different way…let’s take a look!!

  10. Who was Queen Hatshepsut?? • Hatshepsut was one of the few women to rule Egypt!!!! • She was the daughter of one pharaoh and the Great Royal Wife of another. When her husband, Thutmose II, died in 1504 B.C.E., he left a son who was too young to rule. Instead, Hatshepsut made herself Egypt’s new pharaoh!! • Take about 3 minutes to share with the person next to you…what do you think about Hatshepsut appointing herself as the next pharaoh??

  11. Some Egyptians did not want to bow to a woman ruler. To gain their support, Hatshepsut carried out all of the rituals expected of a king. • Her statues showed her dressed as a king!! She even wore the false beard that was a symbol of the pharaoh’s power.

  12. Queen Hatshepsut’s Rule • She ruled Egypt from 1500 B.C.E. to 1458 B.C.E. • Hatshepsut’s rule was peaceful. She was often called “Good Queen Hatshepsut. • She built Egypt’s wealth and power through trade. When she sent traders away to Punt in East Africa, they came back with precious wood, ivory, gold, and perfumes. • She built beautiful monuments, in which she had artists carve and paint scenes from her life and her reign. • When she died, Tuthmosis II tried to erase evidence of Hatshepsut’s reign to make it seem as though he had succeed his father directly, and made a successful reign himself.

  13. What about Ramses II?? • Ramses II ruled about 200 years after Hatshepsut, and he was a different kind of pharaoh. • What Hatshepsut was able to do through trade, Ramses II tried to do through war. He spent the first half of his reign fighting in distant lands.

  14. One of Ramses’ II Battles • In 1274 B.C.E., Ramses led his army against the powerful Hittites. The two armies met in a placed called Qadesh in present-day Syria. • According to Ramses, he won a great victory at Qadesh without much help from his soldiers. He actually lost many soldiers to the Hittites in this battle, so instead of losing the rest of his army, he chose to head back home.

  15. Ramses II was known for two things: his red hair and being Egypt’s greatest builder. • In 60 years of ruling, he was able to build more monuments than any other pharaoh. • One of his many projects was the temple at Abu Simbel, which was carved from a rock cliff. • Four statues of Ramses, each more than 65 feet tall, guard the entrance. • Not surprisingly, he is remembered as Ramses the Great.

  16. Pyramid Projects: Students will draw two social structure pyramids. One will be a review of Mesopotamia social structure, and one will be of Ancient Egypt social structure. Both of these are important, and it is crucial that students do not confuse the two. • Students will construct a pyramid using construction paper and markers.

  17. Be Persuasive • In English, you are learning about persuasive text. • For homework you will write two paragraphs about who you think was a better leader, Hatshepsut or Ramses II. • Write your paragraphs in a way that you will persuade, or convince, your reader that the ruler you chose is better than the other one. • Use your textbook and notes to find details!
