The 18th Dynasty
1570-1293 BCE

This Dynasty, along with Dynasties XIX and XX, is 
referred to as the New Kingdom. This was a time of great
prosperity for Egypt, as is demonstrated by the lavish
works of art and architecture of this period.  This was
also a time of great change.  Both Akhenaten and Hatshepsut
challenged the accepted norms of the time.  For more information
