One way that Hatshepsut stayed in power was to construct many buildings and monuments throughout Egypt. She also had many statues of herself at these sites. This way the people continued to think of her as their leader and pharaoh.

It was similar to the classical architecture that the Greeks would develop around a thousand years later and marked a major turning point in Egyptian architecture.
