There was a female pharaoh of Egypt who ruled as a man - Apparently.
Hatshepsut, one of the few female pharaohs of Egypt, took the throne in 1479 BCE and ruled for over 22 years, adopting masculine attire and the title of "Pharaoh" to assert her authority. Despite her efforts to present herself as a male ruler, her existence was largely erased from Egyptian records after her death. However, her impressive building projects and trade expeditions remain a testament to her remarkable reign. Her mummy was discovered in 1902, confirming her identity and sparking renewed interest in her remarkable story.
