 Dynasties 26: Psammetichus I, Necho II, Apries, Amasis, Psammetichus III
Nekau (Necho) II 610-595 BC Nekau (II), who we know better as Necho, was either the 2nd or 3rd  king of Egypt's 26th Dynasty, depending on whether we allow the rule of a nominal king Nekau I at the beginning of the Dynasty.
We believe that Amasis was the son of a Lady Takheredeneset, and married two women by the names of Tentheta and Nakhtsebastetru.  He may have had a third wife named Khedebneithireretbeneret, who was actually a daughter of his great nemesis, Apris.
Yet poor Apries was not yet finished.  In March of 567, he again marched on Egypt at the head of a Babylonian army, but once again, Amasis defeated him, this time capturing the former king.
