    KING
    AMENHOTEP III HISTORICAL REVIEW
    King Amenhotep III, also known as Amenhotep the Magnificent, was the ninth pharaoh of the Eighteenth Dynasty. He ruled Egypt from June 1386 to 1349 BC. His reign was a period of unprecedented prosperity and splendor, when Egypt reached the peak of its artistic and international power. When he died in the 38th or 39th year of his reign, his son initially ruled as Amenhotep IV, but then changed his own royal name to Akhenaten.
    His reign was largely peaceful and prosperous. Commerce and diplomacy were preferred to the use of military force, especially in the Near East, and Amenhotep III presided over a period of remarkable artistic creativity. Some of the largest and most impressive monuments of the New Kingdom were created during his reign. For many, it marks the apogee of Egyptian civilization and the beginning of its decline. Amenhotep had lively diplomatic exchanges with the other great contemporary powers. This was confirmed by the Letters of Amara (diplomatic archives of Amenhotep III and Akhenaton). These reveal that Egyptian gold was exchanged for horses, copper and lapis lazuli from Asia.
    He was the first pharaoh to publish royal news about his marriages, hunting trips and construction projects, with written information about large stone beetles sent to the entire empire.
    The king Amenhotep III participated in a major construction program. This included his own burial temple in West Thebes, the Colossi of Memnon still being the highlight, and an important temple in Soleb in Nubia. In the imperial city of Thebes, the king’s vast palace in Malkata was located near his funeral temple, the largest ever built, in its original location, marked by the two statues of the Colossians of Memnon. An extensive network of ports and canals connected these buildings to the Nile, giving direct access to the King’s new temple in Luxor and the great national temple of Amen in Karnak.
