There were a fair number of women who ruled over ancient Egypt. But who were these women really, and how did they come to power - and then keep it? Here's the untold truth of the women who ruled ancient Egypt.

Neithhotep lived in the Early Dynastic Period, which ran from 3150 to 2613 B.C.E., so information about her is scant. But there are tantalizing clues that she may have ruled on her own after her husband, the pharaoh, died.

We also have strong circumstantial evidence testifying to her power. The people who uncovered her tomb many centuries later were awed by its richness and size, and her name was also included in inscriptions typically meant only for kings. Though Neithhotep remains a mysterious figure from Egypt's deep past, it's pretty clear, given how her name has survived over the centuries since her own time, that Neithhotep was a force to be reckoned with.
