  Thutmose IV - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thutmose IV was once thought to have enjoyed a much longer reign of 34-35 years but this figure is not substantiated by the small number of monuments which he left behind as compared to those of his son Amenhotep III, and the complete absence of attested Year dates for him after his 8th Year.
Thutmose IV was buried in the Valley of the Kings, in tomb KV43, but his body was moved to the mummy cache in KV35, where it was discovered by Victor Loret in 1898.

At Zarw, the son of Amenhotep and Tiye, Amenhotep IV, was born and spent his childhood sheltered from all political enemies of the royal family (who may have at least been suspected in the death of Amenhotep III's eldest son Thutmose V in Memphis).
