This article is about the sixth pharaoh of the Eighteenth Dynasty. For other uses, see Thutmose.
Menkheperre Thutmose III (1481 BCE – 1425 BCE), also known as Thutmose Manahpirya, Tuthmosis III or Thothmes, was a pharaoh of the Eighteenth Dynasty of Ancient Egypt.
During his reign, he conducted eight military campaigns in ten years, capturing major cities, including Megiddo, and creating one of the largest empires Egypt had ever seen.[1] He also commisioned an obelisk, which would occupy a place of prominence outside the temple of Karnak. The hieroglyphs on the obelisk's four sides recounted the tales of some of the Pharaoh's greatest military victories.[2] The type of sword utilized by his common troops were so effective that by the end of the Ptolemaic dynasty, it would be named the Thutmosid Sword after him.[1]
