Archaeologists recently discovered important artifacts in Luxor, Egypt, related to Queen Hatshepsut, who ruled from 1479 to 1458 BC. They found tools, Hatshepsut's cartouches, and over 1,500 decorated stone blocks from her valley temple.

Hatshepsut became pharaoh while acting as regent for her stepson, Thutmose III. After her death, he restored her temple, showing respect for her legacy.

The excavation also revealed a 17th Dynasty cemetery and the tomb of Djehuty Mes, providing insight into life in ancient Egypt during the Hyksos rule. https://www.ancient-origins.net/news-history-archaeology-ancient-places-africa/hatshepsut-temples-0021825
