Why Egypt Tried to Delete Its Greatest King from History

For centuries, archaeologists were baffled. They found statues with smashed faces and cartouches chiseled off walls. It looked like a crime scene. But the victim wasn't a criminal—it was one of the most successful Pharaohs in Ancient Egyptian history. In this episode of Playback, we uncover the story of Hatshepsut, the woman who didn't just rule Egypt, but became a King. We explore how she bent the rules of gender, built the most beautiful temple on earth, and why, twenty years after her death, someone tried to scrub her existence from the timeline. Was it a jealous stepson? A religious revolution? Or something much more calculated?
