One of only a few women who ruled ancient Egypt as a king during its thousands of years of history, Tausret was the last pharaoh of the 19th dynasty (c. 1200 BCE), the last ruling descendent of Ramesses the Great, and one of only two female monarchs buried in Egypt's renowned Valley of the Kings. Though mentioned even in Homer as the pharaoh of Egypt who interacted with Helen at the time of the Trojan War, she has long remained a figure shrouded in mystery, hardly known even by many Egyptologists. Nevertheless, recent archaeological discoveries have illuminated Tausret's importance, her accomp

De l'avènement de Mérenptah à celui de Sethnakht, premier roi de la XXe dynastie, s'écoulent approximativement vingt-cinq années. Il s'agit d'une période courte, durant laquelle quatre rois et une reine montèrent sur le trône. Elle contraste avec les soixante-six années du règne précédent de Ramsès II : durée exceptionnelle, qui donne à l'historien une impression de longue stabilité et de prospérité. Vingt-cinq années au cours desquelles l'Égypte bascule dans le chaos et la guerre civile : révolte en Canaan, invasions libyenne et nubienne, crise économique et politique. En dehors de Mérenptah et Séthy II, fils et petit-fils de Ramsès II, les hommes - et une femme - qui gouvernèrent l'Égypte pendant cette période restent mystérieux : qui sont l'usurpateur Amenmesses, l'enfant-roi malingre Siptah, le Syrien Bay, la reine Taousert, qui inspira Théophile Gautier dans Le Roman de la momie ?
