DEIR EL-BAHARI: HATSHEPSUT'S EPIC TEMPLE. LUXOR EGYPT

Let’s explore “The Holy of Holies” (Djeser-Djeseru)- a thousands years old ancient Egyptian temple in Deir el-Bahari, Western Thebes (Luxor) commissioned by the most famous female pharaoh - Hatshepsut. She lived during the 18th dynasty (Thutmose III, Amenhotep IV, Akhenaten, Queen Nefertiti, Tutankhamun). Her majestic temple is, without any doubt, a masterpiece of ancient Egyptian architecture thanks to its simple style excellently integrated into the rough cliffs of the surrounding landscape.

Let’s get a closer look at ancient Thebes; the temple’s precincts and its captivating architecture. Let’s get to know more about the female pharaoh herself - a determined and courageous Egyptian woman, daughter of a great warrior - Thutmosis I, granddaughter of the founder of the 18th dynasty - Ahmose, and predecessor of the greatest pharaoh of the dynasty - Thothmes III. Hatshepsut not only commissioned great building projects, but also re-established economic relations with the land of Punt - a legendary place, believed to have been an ancestral home of ancient Egyptians.
Join me to learn more about the Beautiful Festival of the Valley, during which the Theban triad - Amun-Ra, Mut, and Khonsu visited the land of the dead. Have you ever heard about Senenmut? If not, you've got to check out this episode. Let’s go!
Join me to get to know more about the ancient history, beliefs, and architecture of this wonderful place!

The Ancients certainly knew how to use the natural landscape to their advantage, the whole setting, against the enormous cliff is so humbling. The Temple itself was made with such precision that it mocks anything we build today! Thank you for showing us all the wonders of the ancient world so close up, it challenges the imagination!

[@jsaysyay]

wonderful to see that temple up close, as Hatshepsut was one of the earliest pharaohs i was interested in as a child. it is a comical twist that even though there was such an attempt to erase her, even now all these thousands of years later we can all speak of be so fascinated by such an iconic and powerful figure in history. also that tree stump? i'm super into gardening irl so wow what an icon, starting a trend so popular and universal today

The amount of restoration and reconstruction in this temple is astonishing. The main facade looks like it has been completly rebuilt, but you can see where they have put pieces back where they can. The Polish restorers have done an amazing job of bringing Hatshepsut's temple back to life. You said Hatshepsut had bad teeth ?. Well I a filling the other day so I feel connected to her in a "toothy" kind of way 😉. Great stuff AS.

[@ancientsitesgirl]

You're so right! The amount of work put into the temple in the last few decades is enormous. I've read that at the very beginning, I think French and American crews, put some of the stones upside down, and later teams had to redo parts of the temple. 😁 I hope you don't use Hatshepsut’s lotion! 😜

This is such a wonderful channel! These are excellent, top-quality documentary tours - the photography is truly breath-taking and the wealth of information is incredible! I was fortunate to visit Luxor myself a few years ago and thoroughly enjoyed exploring Karnak, the Valley of the Kings, Luxor itself and the Temple of Hatshepsut, and being able to revisit the sites through your channel is awesome. I knew very little of the history at the time though (and the depth of detail in these videos makes me realise we also somehow missed a few areas of the sites!) so it's fabulous to learn so much more about them. I feel I would now be able to appreciate them so much more if I was to visit them again someday. Thank you so much for these marvellous tours!

isnt the succeed of Pharaos in the hand of the priests? How Hatshepsut handled that?

[@ancientsitesgirl]

The priests of Amun did not grow into political power until the end of the 18th Dynasty, the pharaohs were not actually influenced by them until the 20th Dynasty, i.e. 300 years after Hatshepsut

[@Knsoms]

Personally I think Cleopatra was the most powerful woman ever, she had both Julius Caesar and Marc Antony enthralled with her. Not to mention she ruled Egypt and parts of the Levant, while also having eastern Rome as an ally. But Hatshepsut is extremely overlooked so I understand why you chose the title for her too.

[@ancientsitesgirl]

Thanks for commenting. We can't forget that Cleopatra wasn't entirely independent (The Roman Empire) whereas in Hatshepsut’s time Egypt was one of the superpowers if not the most powerful empire in the world :)

[@Knsoms]

@@ancientsitesgirl That’s a fair point. I guess my mind was thinking power in the sense of control over a large area of territory, but in this case, that makes more sense. Hatshepsut was in absolute control of Egypt for a much longer period of time
