Ramses II (Ramses the Great) ruled from 1279 BC to 1212 BC. He worshiped only one god, Aten, and started a religious revolution. His reign proved to be the only time in ancient Egyptian history when monotheism was practiced. The “Heretic” King, Akhenaten, ruled from 1379 BC to 1334 BC. His reign lasted from 1334 BC to 1325 BC. His tomb was discovered in 1922 and was significant because it had remained in nearly perfect condition since the king’s entombment. He took the throne at the age of only nine or ten, then tragically died at the age of 18. King Tut is famous because he was the youngest pharaoh in the history of Egypt. Thutmose III, who took over the throne from his step mother (Hatshepsut) was known for his bravery after winning the Battle of Megiddo. She is credited as being one of the most successful pharaohs of all time. As the 5th pharaoh of the 18th dynasty, she reigned longer than any other female pharaoh.
