1. Wilson, Steindorff, Seele believe that "she came to what we may well believe was an unnatural end."
Her mummy has not been found, but no evidence suggests she had an unnatural
death
Views on her monuments:
Some time after her death Hatshepsut's names, titles and images were erased from the walls of the temples and replaced with those of her father Thutmose I, her husband, Thutmose II, and stepson Thutmose III. Her name was absent from all later lists of kings, statues smashed. Vengeance of Thutmose III?
1. Robins "(Thutmose's actions) could be explained by assuming that Hatshepsut had died naturally and that Thutmose felt no resentment against her."
2. Redford "Thutmose was motivated no so much by a genuine hatred as by political necessity." Believes that he allowed certain images of Hatsheput and cartouches to remain "she was his own flesh." - 7The Legacy of Hatshepsut "the female Horus"- created a stable, prosperous and secure Egypt
