In my post showing potential eras for the Egyptian 12th to 25th Dynasties, i attempted a second draft of the estimated birth years of key Eighteenth Dynasty leaders, but this has to be revised again now that Yuya and Tuya (Joseph and Asenath) have been identified as Ashurnasirpal and Ashratu / Asherah.
So here's my third draft of estimated birth dates for Eighteenth Dynasty luminaries:
Ahmose - 1030 BC
Amenhotep I - 1010 BC
Thutmose I - 995 BC
Thutmose II - 980 BC
Thutmose III - 955 BC
Thutmose IV - 935 BC
Amenhotep II - 909 BC
Yuya - 907 BC
Tuya - 902 BC
Aye - 888 BC
Tiye - 886 BC
Amenhotep III - 885 BC
Kiya - 870 BC
Amenhotep IV - 869 BC
Smenkhare - 851 BC
Tutankhamun - 848 BC
This list will definitely be both expanded and revised as new information comes to light.
