Colossi of HatshepsutA close up of a statue of Hatshepsut. The features are distinctly female and the statue has a false beard which would normally be an attribute of male royals but was deemed at the time to be always necessary for a colossi of a pharaoh regardless of sex! Ancient Egyptian Picture Gallery Index HatshepsutLower Level of Hatshepsut's Funeral Temple A view of the right side of the lower level of Hatshepsut’s funerary temple. It is of note that the temple's design is very different from the other Ancient Egyptian temples, it has a very rectangular design even down to the square pillars which traditionally would have been round.
