King " Amenhotep III " of the New Kingdom in ancient Egypt Thutmose IV’s son Amenhotep III (ruled 1390–53 BCE) acceded to the throne at about the age of 12. He soon wed Tiy, who became his queen.

Amenhotep II - Thutmose IV from the New Kingdom in ancient Egypt About two years before his death, Thutmose III appointed his 18-year-old son, Amenhotep II (ruled c. 1426–1400 BCE), as coregent. Just before his father’s death, Amenhotep II set out on a campaign to an area in Syria near Kadesh, whose city-states were now caught up in the power struggle between Egypt and Mitanni; Amenhotep II killed seven princes and shipped their bodies back to Egypt to be suspended from the ramparts of Thebes and Napata. #Amenhotep #Thutmose #ancientegypt #ancient #ancienthistory #archaeology https://www.egypttales.com/2021/05/egypt-amenhotep-ii-thutmose-iv-from-new.html

At Thutmose II’s death, his queen and sister Hatshepsut had only a young daughter; but a minor wife had borne him a boy, who was apparently very young at his accession. This son, Thutmose III " ruled 1479–26 BCE", later reconquered Egypt’s Asian empire and became an outstanding ruler. During his first few regnal years, Thutmose III theoretically controlled the land, but Hatshepsut governed as regent. #hatshepsut #Thutmose #ancientegypt #ancient #ancienthistory #egypt #egyptology https://www.egypttales.com/2021/05/egypt-queen-hatshepsut-and-thutmose-iii.html
