''The ?adopted son of [[Amenemhet III]], (the 6th Pharaoh of the 12th dynasty). He co-reigned with Amenemhet III for 9 years over Upper and Lower Egypt, Elephantine and Lower Nubia and then suddenly disappeared. His ancestry is not recorded in Egyptian records. (Many believe him to be the [[Moses]] of the Bible who was born {1526BC}, raised by a princess in Pharaoh's household, went into exile in Midian at the age of 40yrs {1486BC} and then returned to Egypt at the end of the 13th dynasty at the age of 80yrs to confront [[Neferhotep]] {1446BC} and lead the Israelites out of Egypt but died at the age of 120yrs before the Israelites entered the 'Promised Land' ([[Canaan]]) {1406BC}.) [[Sobekneferu]], the daughter of [[Amenemhet III]] may have been the Princess that found him in a basket in the Nile and, being childless, raised him as her own. [[Amenemhet III]] had no sons to inherit the throne so when he died [[Sobekneferu]], in the Absence of Amenemhet IV, became the next Pharaoh. When she died, after reigning only 4 years, the 12th dynasty ended and Egypt was destabilized and eventually over run by the [[Hyksos]] {1444BC} bringing an end to the 13th dynasty. The [[Egyptian chronology|revised dates]] of his reign: 1498-1486BC (approximately).'' | ''The ?adopted son of [[Amenemhet III]], (the 6th Pharaoh of the 12th dynasty).
