Their goals also had differences like how many risks they took and also the level of risk each took. Hatshepsut risked her chance at being a Pharaoh, she did that by slowly taking more power from the Pharaoh. Meanwhile, Perseus risked his life. Perseus risked his life to become a hero by taking a chance and slaying Medusa. Perseus could have been turned to stone by Medusa but kept his promise to Athena, The Giant, and Hermes. Perseus had help from many people. The people that helped Perseus are, Athena, Hermes, The Giant, and the Nymphs. Athena gave Perseus a shield to protect him against Medusa. Hermes gave him sandals to let him fly over the ocean saving him time. The giant and the Nymphs sent the eldest Nymph to get a hat from Hades so he could have invisibility. On the other hand, Hatshepsut worked on her own to get to the top. Although Hatshepsut was born to a Pharaoh, she wasn't given the title after her father died. Instead, she had to get more power and slowly take the throne for herself. Unlike Persues, Hatshepsut didn't need to risk her life to become a pharaoh. …show more content…
Both have had times when they were in the dark. An unknown author once said, “Tough times not only make you stronger, but you grow from those experiences” This quote relates to both Hatshepsut and Perseus. A pharaoh who climbed her way to the top. She ruled Egypt after her father, the king died. Perseus was a hero in Greek mythology who slayed monsters for a place with the gods and goddesses. People, such as Hatshepsut and Perseus, are motivated to push through moments of uncertainty for various reasons. Both Hatshepsut and Perseus have differences in how they overcome hardships and challenges. Both Persues and Hashepsut were motivated by fame and
Monuments dedicated to Queen Hatshepsut were marred beyond the point of recognition and her name was scratched from all records kept. Her mummy went missing. The queen simply disappeared from Egypt’s history. The fact that Queen Hatshepsut’s mummy disappeared troubled archaeologists for over one hundred years. They were unable to account for the disappearance of her remains; remains that held the key into unlocking the truth behind Queen Hatshepsut’s notorious reign over
Hatshepsut was a distinguished royal who was the daughter of a ferocious pharaoh and the wife of a pharaoh.
Even so, Hatshepsut is still one of the the greatest pharaohs in Egypt, the third woman to become a pharaoh and the first to attain full power of the position in the span of 3000 years of Egyptian
They both hand a lot of hardships throughout their movements, but they never gave up and were persistent on their
Children in Ancient Egypt were very vulnerable to disease. Hatshepsut was lucky to survive and her living on ensured that her bloodline was the highest of all the royal children. She was also the most mature and educated of her siblings. The death of both of her full-blooded brothers was the first crisis of Hatshepsut’s young life leaving the line of succession in jeopardy (Cooney 51-53). As the most eligible daughter of the pharaoh, she would have married one of her brothers and continued the family line.
Do you know who Hatshepsut is ? She is the daughter of Queen Ahmose and Thutmose l also known as the founder of the Eighteenth dynasty and the king of the Eighteenth dynasty of ancient Egypt . Hatshepsut was considered one of the greatest pharaohs . She considered herself as a man . She felt she had the right to rule like any man .
Hatshepsut’s Story Hatshepsut was a very significant individual in Ancient Egypt, as she believed that if she chose to live her life as a pharaoh and not a queen, she would get more respect like her father Tuthmosis l did. Hatshepsut was able to be the first female pharaoh and rule successfully. Although Hatshepsut wasn’t the only female pharaoh, she was the most common known one in ancient Egypt. The purpose of this report is to inform the reader about how Hatshepsut ruled and all her successful achievements that helped to shape Ancient Egyptian society. Hatshepsut had many achievements such as being the first female pharaoh in her dynasty and in ancient Egypt, She ruled for a successful 22 years before dying.
It is theorized that Thutmose was angry because he was only a co-regent and not the king of Egypt until Hatshepsut died after 20 years of a prosperous reign. As a result of his anger, Thutmose III attempted to erase evidence of her reign. The second theory is that this was done by Thutmose III because, to the ancient Egyptians, if a woman ruled it would create imbalance in the world, because it was not common for such a thing to occur during this time in history. Joshua Mark writes in his entry about Hatshepsut that "The pharaoh served as a role model to his people and it is possible that Thutmose III feared that other women might look to Hatshepsut for inspiration and try to follow her example, thereby departing from a tradition which maintained that men should rule Egypt and women should be only consorts, as it was in the beginning of time when the god Osiris ruled with his consort Isis." So, to try and ensure this "balance," Thutmose destroyed many of her obelisks and defaced carvings of her from during her reign.
Odysseus shows us his leadership with the fight with the Cyclops and with the Sirens. He shows his determination from the moment he got out of the war to get home. One of the biggest lessons that Odysseus teaches us is that our choices have consequences, good or bad. When Odysseus encountered the Cyclops he decided to go to it, he went in knowing that there may be a bad outcome but that didn’t stop him.
There is no surprise that Thutmose III became one of the supreme pharaohs of the New Kingdom given the leadership and opportunities afforded to him through his co-regency with Hatshepsut. In truth, judging from the attack on her monuments, Hatshepsut was perhaps a little too good in concerns of being a pharaoh.
Stepping beside Tuthmosis III shows that Hatshepsut wanted her people, the Egyptians, to know that she was equal to Tuthmosis III, or somewhat as powerful as Tuthmosis III. We also learned that Hatshepsut was worried about continuing Egypt’s traditions. While she tried to follow Egypt’s customs, she accomplished another intelligent thing. Hatshepsut knew that other pharaohs had a throne name when they ruled, so she decided to do so as well. Hatshepsut was clever about what she named herself, though.
Odysseus being a leader makes him a hero because he makes bold decisions and he protects himself and his
Bravery, cleverness, and determination are three traits a good leader has. In Homer’s epic “The Odyssey,” Odysseus, the hero in the story, is trying to return home to Ithaca after his victory in Troy. On their way back home, Odysseus and his men hurt the cyclops, Polyphemus, and angered his father, Poseidon. With a god angry at them, Odysseus and his men had to overcome many obstacles. These obstacles led them to strange islands that had goddesses and dangerous creatures.
Being a good leader is important, caring for those being lead is important. The odyssey is a story by Robert Fitzigerald is were the main character odysseus battles mystical creatures and faces the wrath of the gods, his wife Penelope and his son Telemachus stave off suitors vying for Penelope's hand and Ithaca's throne long enough for Odysseus to return. Odysseus is not a good leader because his lack of loyalty to his men and his hubris. Odysseus is not a good leader because hes not loyal to his men and he would leave them behind. Odysseus wants to go to a cave but he would have to leave his men behind, his mean give him lots of ideas so Odysseus does not leave them behind, but odysseus is selfish and leave them anyway.
In 1479 B.C.E. Thutmose II passed the power of Pharaoh to co-ruler Hatshepsut-his sister/wife-because his son, Thutmose III, was too young. During her reign, she proved she was worthy by becoming one of the “most ambitious builders in Egyptian history” (Cole and Symes 34). However, after ruling for 21 years her legacy was tested. Scholars found defaced statues and portraits of Hatshepsut. Some believed Thutmose III was slighted by Hatshepsut and he defaced her image.
