Summary

[edit]
Description

Hatshepsut wearing the khat headdress, Eighteenth dynasty of Egypt, c. 1503-1482 B.C. Black granite sculpture at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York City.

One of only two statues of Hatshepsut found at her funerary temple that portray her with a woman's body and clothes, though she still wears the khat headdress of male kings. Found at Deir el-Bahri, Thebes.

Inscriptions on the statue associate Amun with the Temple of Karnak, suggesting that the statue may have been dedicated there.
