In the 7th millennium BC, Egypt was environmentally hospitable, and evidence of settlements from that time has been found in the low desert areas of southern, or Upper, Egypt; remains of similar occupation have been discovered at Nubian sites in modern Sudan.
As a consequence of internal strife, the reigns of this and the succeeding 8th Dynasty (2134-2124 BC) are rather obscure.
In fact the next two dynasties, the 23rd (818-715 BC) and 24th (727-715 BC), were contemporaneous with the latter part of the 22nd Dynasty, just as the 25th (Nubian) Dynasty effectively controlled much of Egypt during the last years of the 22nd and the 24th dynasties.

c.1504-1492 BC Thutmose, with a break from the traditional lineage, was not the son of Amenhotep I, but most likely his brother (being the son of Ahmose).
c.1427-1400 BC At the start of Amenhotep's reign there was a need to deal with revolts in Palestine and Nubia (no doubt due to the natives testing the resolve of this new Pharaoh after they had been subdued under his predecessor).
c.1336-1327 BC Perhaps the most famous Pharaoh of them all due to the discovery of his tomb in 1922, it is a historical irony that Tutankhamun in reality was one of the most inconsequential and minor Pharaoh of the period.

Thotmusis III, who was Hatshepsut's stepson and co-ruler after the death of his father Thotmusis II in 1479 BC, was widely regarded as having had strained relations with the queen.
Thotmusis III was a child when his father died and the rule of the kingdom was initially put in the hands of Hatshepsut.
Until the latest discovery, Egyptologists believed that Thotmusis III destroyed Hatshepsut's statues out of jealousy upon her death in 1458 BC, particularly the ones in Hatshepsut's temple in el Deir el Bahary in the southern city of Luxor.
