Fun note: in 1918, British General Edmund Allenby found himself in the same situation as Thutmose III, and having read Breasted's translation of the story, tried the exact same "middle path" trick as Thutmose, and it worked again, 3400 years later!

Thutmose III was a child when his father, Thutmose II died in 1479 BC. His stepmother and aunt Hatshepsut became regent during his minority but was herself declared pharaoh within a couple of years. Although Thutmose III was not deposed, he would remain powerless during Hatshepsut's reign. In theory he and his stepmother were co-rulers, but in practice his position was nebulous and he was kept out of the way as Hatshepsut ruled Egypt. Thutmose III was also married to Hatshepsut's daughter to further consolidate his claim to the throne. Its believed that Thutmose III resented Hatshepsut for sidelining him in the first 22 years of his reign, and after Hatshepsut died indulged himself in a bit spite that was aimed at his stepmother when he tore down her statues and removed her images from temples and other important structures. Thutmose III was considered very studious and he studied a lot during his aunt's tenure as pharaoh and he became widely respected for his learning. At this time he also gained renown as commander of the army and made a name for himself as a good general who was also wise in victory. All the while Egypt under Hatshepsut experienced a period of growth and security, which the nation needed. Trade routes were re-established and the economy grew by leaps and bounds. This was the beginning of the wealth for which Egypt is now famous for.

I need more Egypt. Please give me more Egypt.

Fun Fact: Thutmose III was a brilliant General/Emperor who never lost a battle, he also excelled as an administrator and statesman. He was an accomplished horseman, archer, athlete, and discriminating patron of the arts. Thutmose had no time for pompous, self-indulgent bombast and his reign, with the exception of his uncharacteristic spite against the memory of Hatshepsut, shows him to have been a sincere and fair-minded man. This is a list of commanders who are considered to have never lost a battle. This list includes important historical generals and admirals, rather than simply any commander who has never lost a battle for the sake of brevity. "IN AFRICA" Ahmose I - founder of the Eighteenth Dynasty and the New Kingdom of Egypt after defeating the Hyksos and leading a successful siege into their capital Avaris. Ahmose also campaigned in Nubia and Levant. Thutmose I - pharaoh of the Eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt. Thutmose I was the first pharaoh to cross the Euphrates. Thutmose I also campaigned in Nubia. Thutmose III - pharaoh of Egypt from the Eighteenth Dynasty. Thutmose III conquered 350 towns without losing any battle. Tutankhamun - pharaoh of the Eighteenth Dynasty of Egypt. Two victorious battles were fought during his reign: the Asiatic Battle, and the Nubian Battle. Partially recovered Talatat blocks from his tomb record 4 different graphic episodes from his battles. A chest recovered from his tomb depicts him valiantly defeating the Nubians perched on a military chariot wielding a bow-and-arrow weapon. Various militant objects were found in his tomb such as military body armor, 8 shields, swords, scimitars, slings, throw-sticks and 2 military trumpets.[1] Seti I - second pharaoh of the Nineteenth Dynasty of Egypt. He led successful campaigns in Nubia, Libya and Levant. He also captured Kadesh and re-established the Egyptian rule over it which was lost since the rule of Akhenaten. Ramesses II - one of the greatest pharaohs of Ancient Egypt. He was involved in naval battles against pirates and battles on the land against the Canaanites and the Hittite Empire. Ramesses signed the oldest peace treaty in history with the Hittites after a long war. Tariq ibn Ziyad (679 - 707) - Berber[2] Muslim commander who led the Islamic Umayyad conquest of Visigothic Hispania in 711-718 A.D. Led the decisive Battle of Guadalete. The name Gibraltar is derived from him. Baibars (1223-1277) - nicknamed Abu al-Futuh (أبو الفتوح; English: Father of Conquest, referring to his victories) - was the fourth Sultan of Egypt in the Mamluk Bahri dynasty, succeeding Qutuz. He was one of the commanders of the Egyptian forces that inflicted a defeat on the Seventh Crusade of King Louis IX of France. He also led the vanguard of the Egyptian army at the Battle of Ain Jalut in 1260, which marked the first substantial defeat of the Mongol army and is considered a turning point in history. Shaka Zulu (1787-1828) - One of the most influential leaders of the Zulu Kingdom. Shaka was known for conquering the Ndwandwe and the Mthethwa Paramountcy without losing any battles. His role in the Mfecane led to the depopulation and migration of various tribes as well as the establishment of Zulu hegemony in the region. He also repelled the British army when they tried to invade South Africa from the east.

When you read about egyptian history you will find that egyptians expanded to levant after the heksus period, they did that to prevent other invasions, before heksus they didn't fight in the levant.

@@tahagalal9276 Not really, the XIV Dynasty had holdings in modern-day Israel and their seals (delivered as part of royal proclamations) are found as far north as Lebanon. Historians who propose the peaceful entry hypothesis consider the XIV's northern expansion to have been the path through which the Hyksos got into Egypt in the first place. Originally the semitic peoples who would constitute the Hyksos would have been allowed into Egypt as vassals of the XIV, but as the dynasty weakened they started gaining power and eventually formed the XV (Hyksos) Dynasty, ultimately turning the last five kings of the XIV into their vassals.

@@andrewsuryali8540 Can I know your sources, this is incorrect information. The concept of linking the religious stories of this Era with documents historical events would do no good for those stories. The Egyptians were notorious with information keeping and have wrote history literally on stones. One simple fact that Mousse was placed in the Nile river until he reach the Pharaoh palace in Thebes and if you know that Nile river flows upward proves without a doubt that semitic were living in south Egypt (maybe Nubian too). There are many theories that state Thutmose III is King David. I have studies this era immensely and tend to agree. The similarities are uncanny. It is very interesting Era to study, but not so much for religious people.

I just returned from Megiddo itself, a fascinating place. Loved to see it getting some representation by such a high quality channel :D

Great video! Thanks for making this.

Thanks again for another great video!

Does anybody know the name of the song/music that starts at 02:10 ? Its so peaceful yet foreboding at the same time.

For perspective, by this time, the Great Pyramid of Giza was already ancient, a little over 1000 years old.

Very interesting! Thank you for this video!

Nice video as always boys. I am really interested on bronze age content. Keep the good job! 👌

Whether you look at the book of Revelation as literature or literal prophesy, having the Battle of Armageddon--the end of military history--take place in the same place as the beginning fairly well fits a theme of the book; Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end.

They called WWI "The Great War to End All Wars". 😔 They are liars.

Megiddo, the oldest battle in history: "That's not fighting, I'll show you fighting. Why back in my day...turn that down, that's not music!"

Glad to see this battle get some shine. Its so overshadowed by Kadesh. Thanks King & Generals

God I’ve been waiting for this one!!! Did not disappoint!

I've been secretly hoping for a Bronze Age video from you! Thank you so much. I would love to see more Bronze and early Iron Age content.

Donald Trump is a direct descendant of Bronze Age rulers. You can see it on his face.

You know something is significant if it ends up not only recorded in your religion, but the religion of other cultures around you

Great Video thank you for sharing!!! It was a very bold but high yielding gambit Thutmose took, that paid off! It’s funny because one would think Kadesh would have at least had a minimal force guarding the Aruna Pass, but to leave it so open with it being the most direct route was simply foolish and reckless on his part. Such is life though and it made for a great battle of which you made a phenomenal video!☯️⚛️

Great vid. Itching to see a vid on the Hyksos, the first foreign rulers over Egypt.

Can we please get a series on the wars of the old Swiss confederacy with an emphasis on the Burgundian wars Feel like the team who masterminded your excellent 100 years war series would do this underrated piece of history justice

Burgundian wars is indeed an interesting topic. That era was very interesting with many conflicts that would eventually give shape to modern european nations

Wow I didn't know anything about this thanks for sharing it with us. I always like learning new things.

I never knew I wanted to know this, alas be curious about it. But this channel delivers again!

Ah yes, Egyptian series is coming.

I thoroughly enjoy your work. It would help me greatly if you would cross-reference the ancient geography with current country borders. Thank you.

Thank you for a well done video.

This video is a well-done, informative and also entertaining.

I think this account is an excellent example of why I find it worthwhile to study military history, even if the subject matter itself is distasteful in the extreme. After all, there's a temptation to think of our forebears as stupid (although upon closer inspection you'll find out it's just that moderns are standing in the shoulders of giants), but when it comes to military stratagems, at least I find it easy to imagine myself in the shoes of Thutmose III, or otherwise in an analogous contemporary military situation in wargames, and see the brilliance in his decision to go through the middle. It's all about taking calculated risks while trying to outwit your equally clever opponent, and this is the one area where all our advances in science, technology and philosophy have failed change a thing.

15:30 Imagine a king who fought his own battles. Wouldn't that be a sight.

Very interesting. Well done. Good job. 👍😊

Great video, very informative!

This battle left a deep impact on history as many believes the battle of end of the world Harmagedōn will take place in the same location

I used to confuse the Philistines with the Philippines, and the Canaanites with Canadians

Excellent illustrated summary.

A few peoples did. It's important, but not important. I only say that because, you can still definitely get mortally wounded in combat with armor. Just a side note trying to boils down to who has the most skill in combat.

First recorded battle in history: Egyptian troops: "I think we'll stop and raid the camp, and let the enemy escape." Nearly every successful army afterwards: "Hey, let's stop and raid the camp...what could possibly go wrong?"

Ahhh quality content! ❤️

Great documentary. Great narration.

Having grown up in a Judeo-Christian household and being exposed to the Bible it is pretty interesting to ponder that the location of the oldest-well recorded battle in human history coincides with the location of "final" battle to occur
