Thutmose III, pharaoh warrior (1504 BCE)
Thutmose III, pharaoh warrior took place in 1504 BCE, during the Ancient World (16th century BCE) — a moment that historians still return to for what it changed and what it revealed about its time.
Context
Ancient World — Empires, philosophers, and the first great cities. That's around 3474 years ago — deep history, roughly 35 centuries in the past. Around the same time, the world was also seeing Hatshepsut (1507 BCE) and Mercury, Atomic Number 80 (1500 BCE).
