As always, ask any questions in the comments, or just let me know what you think of the video! I really like to hear from folks. I am a few vids into the new format, really wondering what you guys think.
There is also the example of Ahhotep I as a regent who held things together between the death of her son Pharaoh Kamose & the defeat of the Hyskos by her younger son Ahmose I. But then there was Sobekneferu as a pre-Haphesput female king outside of Nefertiti or the Cleopatras.
True enough! She has a good claim to be the main character for this period, but I think lack of sources scares a lot of popularizers away. Glad you enjoyed it.
lol, I will be lucky if the new TW gets me enough viewers to get a few bucks of ad revenue, but if CA wants to send me any extra money, I am happy to do youtube full time.
Glad you are enjoying it! I am having a lot of fun going through the history of this period, and have plenty more coming up between now and October. It is a pretty good historical era.
The issue about all these people is lack of information on their lives, even their ages are debatable let alone anything else. Nobody even knows how she died or by whom/from what.
