| Bronze dagger for Ahmose I |
The reign of Ahmos was marked by a major event: the liberation of Egypt from the Hyksos and the expulsion of them after more than a century of occupation. And we find that the completion of the wars of liberation, which seemed Camus, required a long effort and time. The city of Avares, the capital of the Hyksos, did not fall after a long siege. It was necessary to uproot the fortresses and fortresses built by the Hyksos in Palestine and defeat the Nubian leaders who tried from time to time to regain their status in the Lower Nubia, which Egypt had restored and finally punished. Unfortunately, the rebellions carried out by some Egyptians collaborating with the Hyksos, or with bitter bitterness of the comrades of the struggle with the good Pharaohs who had ambitions.
Saqnen Ra was the first to start attacking the Hyksos to fight them out of Egypt and is believed to have been killed in one of his battles with the Hyksos. He was armed with his armies when he was about 19 years old. He used some modern weapons such as war wheels and joined the army many good people. He and his armies went to Oyares (Sanh Al-Hagharalia), the capital of the Hyksos, defeated them there and then drove them to Palestine and besieged them in the fortress of Sharohin. The Hyksos appears later in history. This battle was around 1580 BC.
As Ahmose ascended to the throne apparently at a young age, his mother, Hahtep, during his reign (1539-1514 BC) raised a kind of guardianship over him.
Ahmose developed the Egyptian army and was the first to enter the wheels of the war "which was used by the Hyksos, which caused the Hyksos to overcome Egypt," was dragged by horses and developed weapons of war using the arrows with iron on the arrows and then began to fight the Hyksos starting from Upper Egypt and around the people He trained them efficiently until they became strong and skilled fighters and continued to fight the Hyksos from Upper Egypt until he arrived in the capital of Egypt at the time, which was established by the Hyksos next to the current city of Zagazig and continued to fight them until they fled to the North Delta and behind them to Sinai and then to Palestine did not return Ahms but rest on the borders of Egypt East He also attacked Nubia to return to the Kingdom of Egypt, which reached its southern border to the second waterfall, and photographed the campaigns of Ahmus in the cemetery of two of his soldiers Ahmose son of his son and Ahmose the son of Nekib.
After the end of Ahmas of his wars to expel enemies and secure the borders of Egypt drew attention to the internal affairs that were rundown during the occupation of the Hyksos, reformed the tax system and reopened commercial routes and repaired water channels and irrigation system.
When political conditions stabilized - perhaps around the twentieth year of his rule - he embarked on the enormous reforms that Egypt needed. The mines and quarries were reopened (limestone cuttings from the mill, al-Marmar from al-Basra near Assiut, and the turquoise from the Sinai peninsula), and traditional trade with Jubail was restored. The architectural activities were particularly concentrated in Upper Egypt in the areas that were among the centers of the national struggle during the seventeenth Dynasty. Ahmose built himself a monumental tomb, which made him a holy shepherd in Abidos, and at the same time reorganized the property of the temples with Pay special attention to the management of the profits of the grain.
He also rebuilt temples that had been destroyed and taken from Tiba as his capital, and Amon was the official idol of his time.
Ahmose's rule lasted for a quarter of a century and he died at the age of 35.
Ahmose married his sister Ahmus-Nefertari, who became the first wife of Amun and gave birth to three sons. One of them was his successor, Amenhotep the First. The first and second died at a young age. Four daughters were Mary Amon, Seth Amon,

And the opening of quarries to cut the stones needed to build the temple of Ptah Minf and Temple Amun Taybeh under this inscription painted six oxen dragging a large piece of stone.
