Nevertheless, this is not the most mysterious fact of Hatshepsut’s biography. What is more striking is that there is little evidence of her existence. Obviously, her relationship with Thutmose III was not quite peaceful, for when he became a king, he chiseled her images off the temples’ walls and monuments.
