Tuthmosis was the third king of the XVIIIth Dynasty in ancient Egypt. He was a brave military man who expanded Egypt’s southern border. He also went as far North as he could, to Mesopotamia, and erected a stela just like he had done at the southern end. This one read, “This is Egypt’s northern border.” His most important innovation, however, was the Valley of the Kings. He died at 53 years in the 1425 BC
