The Greatest Pharaoh? The Reign of Thutmose III (Part 1)
At the height of the 18th Dynasty (c.1495 - 1441 BCE), King Men-kheper-Ra Djehuty-messu (aka Thutmose III) ruled Egypt. The start of his reign was unusual, with power wielded primarily by the Queen-King Hatshepsut. But following Hatshepsut's death, Thutmose would rise to the challenges of rule. In this episode, we explore the King's upbringing, his rise-to-power, and the famous Battle of Megiddo. Compilation of previously released material. Date: c.1495 - 1441 BCE. Episode Chapters: Part One - Little King Thutmose: 02:20 - 37:25. Part Two - The Battle of Megiddo: 37:25 - 01:10:30. Part Three - Campaigns of Victory (Thutmose at War): 01:10:30 - 01:50:05.
