Description
Tuthmose III/Tuthmosis III completed full colour correction.

This is one of the illustrations for my illustrated guide to the Mediterranean late bronze age.

I had stopped working on this version because someone mentioned that the Khepresh crown, also known as the war crown or blue crown of Egypt was adopted after Tuthmosis III's reign. So I had to check again everything.
The first mention of the Khepresh is on the Cairo stella JE 59635 Neferhotep III from about 1627 BC and kept evolving until it became it's most iconic shape with Tuthmosis III and Hatshepsut as shown in the last image.
