About this listen
In this episode, we talk about the real story behind ancient Egypt’s most powerful women — from Hetep Heres’s gold-filled tomb near the Great Pyramid, to Hatshepsut’s temples and military campaigns, to Nefertari’s role as royal diplomat and queen of Ramses the Second, to Arsinoe the Second’s economic genius and divine image, all the way to Cleopatra’s political maneuvers with Julius Caesar and Mark Antony. We break down how they used coins, temples, titles, trade routes, and diplomacy to shape Egypt’s politics, economy, and cultural influence for over six thousand years.
