  The Ancient Egypt Site - Titulary of Kamose
It has long been assumed that Kamose was a son of Seqenenre, making him an elder brother or halfbrother of Ahmose, but as most of Seqenenre's children have the element "Ahmose" as part of their name and since Kamose is not listed among the many children of Seqenenre, this hypothesis is not really tenable.
During his campaigns, Kamose was able to push his northern border with the Hyksos further north, from Cusae in Middle Egypt, to at least Sako, about halfway between Cusae and the Fayum oasis or perhaps even as far as just south of Atfih, between the Fayum oasis and the old capital of Memphis.
Kamose was buried in a tomb in Dra' Abu el-Naga, on the Theban Westbank.
