 Hatshepsut - Encyclopedia, History, Geography and Biography
Upon the death of her father in 1493 BC, she married Thutmose II and assumed the title of Great Royal Wife.
At first, it appears that Hatshepsut was patterning herself after the powerful female regents of Egypt's then-recent history, but as Thutmose III approached maturity it became apparent that she had only one model in mind: Sobekneferu, the last monarch of the Twelfth dynasty, who ruled in her own right.
Hatshepsut died, either as she was approaching or just entering middle age, in early February 1482 BC or 1483 BC ; no record of her cause of death has survived, although both natural causes and murder have been proposed.

 "An Examination of Egyptian Chronology"
The relevant portion of this document concerns the attempt by Ptolemy III (238 BC) to introduce the leap-year system to the Egyptian calendar as it is stated that the "popular festivals which ought to be held in the winter [have] come to be celebrated in the summer" (Sharpe 1904, 71).
The earliest universally accepted fixed date deriving from Egypt is the sack of Thebes by Assurbanipal in 664 BC during the reign of Taharka.
It should also be noted that the proposed date of 1089 BC for the end of the New Kingdom is based on highest regnal dates and may therefore possibly err by a few years, thus leading to a slight margin of uncertitude.

Thotmusis III, who was Hatshepsut's stepson and co-ruler after the death of his father Thotmusis II in 1479 BC, was widely regarded as having had strained relations with the queen.
Thotmusis III was a child when his father died and the rule of the kindgom was initially put in the hands of Hatsheput.
Until the latest discovery, Egyptologists believed that Thotmusis III destroyed Hatshepsut's statues out of jealousy upon her death in 1458 BC, particularly the ones in Hatshepsut's temple in el Deir el Bahary in the southern city of Luxor.

 Summary of Evidence for the Absolute Chronology of the Early Part of the Aegean Late Bronze Age Derived from Historical ...
Absolute dates used below are based on 1550 BC for the start of the XVIIIth Dynasty or New Kingdom and the now very probable date of 1479 BC for the accession of Tuthmosis III, during whose reign of 54 years several Aegean connections are found.
This evidence suggests 1456 BC (1479 BC accession less 23 years) for a point by which LM IB was in existence.
The tomb was apparently in use from the time of Tuthmosis I (accession 1504 BC) to somewhere in the reign of Tuthmosis III, not necessarily late in his reign.
