Amenhotep III was an Egyptian pharaoh of the Eighteenth dynasty who ruled ca. 1389 BC-1351 BC. He was crowned while still a child and his lengthy reign was a period of great peace, prosperity, and artistic splendour. He built extensively at the temple of Karnak, including at least two pylons, a colonnade behind the new entrance, and a new temple to the goddess Ma'at. He oversaw construction of another temple to her at Luxor and virtually covered Nubia with numerous monuments.
