Karnak - The Temple of Amun - The obelisk of Hatsheput. This obelisk has a wall built around it by Tuthmosis III in an attempt to hide all signs of the reign of Hatsheput who was appointed regent when Tuthmosis III's father died (Tuthmosis III was too young to rule at that stage). Hatsheput later had herself appointed as Pharoah and became the most famous of the female Pharoah's, reigning for 15 years.
