Twosret

Reign 1191–1189 B.C. (19th Dynasty)

Twosret was the last known pharaoh of the 19th dynasty. At first, she was the second wife of Seti II and regent to his heir Siptah. When Siptah died, Twosret assumed control of the throne and officially declared herself pharaoh. It is unsure whether her reign ended in civil war or the conflict began as a result of her death.
