Final answer:

Queen Hatshepsut's legacy was largely erased by her stepson Thutmose III after her death.

Step-by-step explanation:

In relation to Queen Hatshepsut, one statement that is NOT true is: Many pharaohs after her actively remembered her legacy. While Queen Hatshepsut was indeed a competent pharaoh in her own name, adopted the titles of male pharaohs, and was portrayed with male features in some statues, her legacy was largely erased by her stepson Thutmose III after her death.

He attempted to remove her presence from the historical record and destroy all images of Hatshepsut.
