This is a controversial record that may be under dispute. |
Wikipedia : No children of Satiah are known, though there is a possibility that Prince Amenemhat – Thutmose's eldest son, who died before his father – was her son.

KINSHIP PATTERNS:
The Kinship pattern of the Ancient Assyrians was unique in that as it merged with the Hittite lineages it exhibited a unique variation. The Hittite matriarchal system was synthesized with the Patriarchal to form a unique kinship and inheritance pattern wherein the son in law of the king was adopted by the king. Upon marriage to the king's daughter, a man would become the king's son. Evidence of this kinship pattern is evident in the Assyrian King's list and in the Hebrew Bible where the lineage of Sargon merged with the Hanigalbat kings of Anatolia. Abraham refers to his wife Sarah as his sister. Many biblical scholars have wrestled with Abraham's dissembling with regard to his wife's status, the truth however is clear in the light of the Kinship patterns in the Assyrio-Hittite nobility. Upon marriage to Sarah, Abraham was elevated to the status of Sarah's brother, son of her father.
Harapsekis (Satiah) was a royal concubine and not the biological sister of the Pharaoh.
Upon joining the Egyptian household she was given the royal name Hatshepsut which has caused some deal of confusion among lay historians since there are in the early years of the XVIII dynasty 4 queens of that name. birth: -1508
Descent and Marital Relationships
The patterns of inheritance were from Father to daughter's husband rendering the tracing of Hittite lineages problematic since the daughter's husband now became her father's son (for purposes of inheritance) and was often referred to that way in the official records.
According to the Habiru. Satiah/Sarah was the niece of Abraham, being the daughter of his brother Haran. However according to Luwaian and Hurrian records Satiah's mother was the daughter of Haran making her father (Nehor/Amenophis) the legal (not lineal) son of his own brother Haran. According then to the kinship patterns of the Hurrians, Abraham (Amenmose Ibarim) became the brother of his wife upon marriage, making him his own brother's son.
Patterns become even more complex during the cross over between the XVIII dynasty and its predecessor. In Egyptian inheritance kingship is passed through the females exclusively. In order to be pharaoh one had to be the husband of the Queen. Family relationships became complex as Father's married daughters, Sisters married Brothers, and Sons married mothers in order to secure and preserve their claim to the throne. Cross dynastic marriages occurred occasionally with the new wife being added to the harem and not designated as a primary wife unless she produced the king's heir (either son or daughter). Her title would be Mother of the God. When fathers died, their sons frequently added their father's minor wives and concubines part of the royal harem.
In the archaeology of Egypt Satiah Hatshepsut is officially shown as a consort of Tutmoses III which conflict with the Habriu record, however the relationship remains unclear even to most historians. With a correct understanding of Egyptian kinship patterns it is easy to reconcile the Hurrian/Hittite/Habiru history with that of the Eygptians.
Satiah was actually the Mother of Tutmoses III's adopted son, Amenemhat Ebusepis, who was appointed by Tutmoses III as Overseer of the Cattle (International Trade Minister in the Levant). Another relationship that puzzles scholars is that of princess Beketiah, who was married to prince Amenemhat. In Egypt she is regarded as a daughter of Tutmoses III, however that relationship is still in question. The Amarna letters point to her being an imported bride.
Identity as a Male King
It is known that Hatshepsut went to great lengths to act as Pharaoh including being addressed as a man, and appearing in official capacity wearing a false beard. This has given rise to speculation that it was not only the Egyptian court officials who "bought into" this charade, but the diplomats of neigboring kingdoms as well. In the Hittite records there is a "king" who appears as a relative of Telepinu whose placement and origin is very uncertain and whose seal does not match those of the rest of the dynasty. It is proposed that this "King" whose reign is uncertain may have been Hatshepsut assuming a Hittite name and acting in capacity as regent. This is further substantiated by the name chosen which is a male derivitive of the female Tawananna (= Queen)
Expansionist Regime
The regency of Hatshepsut saw the establishment of vast trade networks that had been previously disrupted during the Hyksos occupation of Egypt (Second Intermediate Period), thereby building the wealth of the eighteenth dynasty. It is to be noted that the Hyksos were different from the Hittites whose lineage was well represented in the 18th Dynasty of Egypt.
