Dynasty XVIII was founded by [[Ahmose I]], the brother or son of [[Kamose]], the last ruler of the [[Seventeenth Dynasty of Egypt|17th Dynasty]]. Ahmose finished the campaign to expel the [[Hyksos]] rulers. His reign is seen as the end of the [[Second Intermediate Period of Egypt|Second Intermediate Period]] and the start of the New Kingdom. Ahmose's consort, Queen [[Ahmose-Nefertari]] was "arguably the most venerated woman in Egyptian history, and the grandmother of the 18th Dynasty."<ref name="gestoso">Graciela Gestoso Singer, "[https://www.academia.edu/414029/Ahmose_Nefertari_the_Woman_in_Black Ahmose-Nefertari, The Woman in Black]".

Ahmose was succeeded by his son, [[Amenhotep I]], whose reign was relatively uneventful.<ref>Aidan Dodson, Dyan Hilton: pg 122</ref>

 

Amenhotep III's reign was a period of unprecedented prosperity, artistic splendor, and international power, as attested by over 250 statues (more than any other pharaoh) and 200 large stone scarabs discovered from Syria to Nubia.{{sfn|O'Connor|Cline|1998|pp=11–12}} Amenhotep III undertook large scale building programmes, the extent of which can only be compared with those of the much longer reign of [[Ramesses II]] during Dynasty XIX.<ref>Aidan Dodson, Dyan Hilton: pg 130</ref> Amenhotep III's consort was the Great Royal wife [[Tiye]], for whom he built an artificial lake, as described on eleven scarabs.{{sfn|Kozloff|Bryan|1992|loc=no. 2}}

Amenhotep III may have shared the throne for up to twelve years with his son Amenhotep IV. There is much debate about this proposed co-regency, with different experts considering that there was a lengthy co-regency, a short one, or none at all.
