Sphinx of Amenhotep III

"The ninth ruler of Dynasty XVIII, Amenhotep III is, with the possible exception of Ramesses II, the best attested and documented of all the pharaohs of Egypt. Often referred to with the appellation 'The Magnificent,' Amenhotep III inherited am empire that stretched from Napata, at the Fourth Cataract of the Nile in Nubia, to Kadesh in northern Syria; his influence covered a territory half again as large. Egypt traded and maintained diplomatic relations with most of the Mediterranean and Aegean world, as well as with Babylon, Assyria, Mittani and the Hittites." (From _The Encylopedia of the Egyptian Pharoahs_ by Darrell D. Baker, page 45)
