75: Thutmose Triumphant (The Erasure of Hatshepsut) Updated 2025

Thutmose III (Part 9): Home and Propaganda. From 1455-1450 BCE, Thutmose spent much of his time involved in domestic affairs. Unfortunately, this involved some very harsh policies towards his immediate predecessor... Update (2023): Thutmose III probably reburied some of his immediate successors. In 2023, archaeologists may have found a tomb associated with one of these rulers. More information in the episode "News from the Field (2023 Review)" and on the website. Update (2025): In 2025, researcher Jun Yi Wong published a study of Hatshepsut's statues. Wong argues that many of the "destroyed" statues may have been dismantled as part of a ritual deactivation, rather than erasure of the Queen-King specifically. This is an ongoing study project and the results may take time to incorporate into the larger historical picture. Read the article in Open Access: Wong, J. Y. (2025).
