| Comment | The name of Amenhotep means "the god Amen is satisfied". Amenhotep III was father of Akhenaten, and possibly grandfather of Tutankhamen. The reign of this king was characterised by glorious palace life and highly developed art and architecture. The great colonnade of Luxor Temple, the third pylon and temple of Karnak, and the palace at Malkata in west bank of Thebes were built in the period of Amenhotep III. |
