Queen Ahmes stepsister of Amenophis Ist spouse of Thuthmose Ist (alias Kamose)
King Antef (VII) Nubkheperre protector of Ahhotep and adoptive father of Kamose because his genuine son Senakhtenre (husband of queen Seniseneb ?) had died prematurely.
This head of Hatshepsut strikingly looks like queen Ahhotep the mother of Kamose (her grandmother ? See above)
Queen Ahhotep Mother of Kamose and of his stepbrother Ahmose
Apophis (II) Aâwserre "the old decrepit king of Syria" Spouse of Teti-sheri Grandfather (and incestuous father) of Kamose
Queen Hatshepsut Maâtkare the daughter of Thutmose Ist ( alias Kamose ) and of his granddaughter and wife queen Ahmes.
King Thuthmose Ist Aâkheperkare alias Kamose (the Heracles of Egypt)
King Kamose Wadjkheperre heroe of the war against Hyksos was considered to be dead and buried for politic reasons after some ten years of reign. Later he was named the Egyptian Heracles by ancient authors because of his numerous conquests and deeds all around the world, which were also attributed to king Sesostris , as he reused a stela with the name of Sesostris Ist (12th dynasty) encarved on one of its side face.
Please consider this family tree as a temptative reconstitution only under my own responsability. I hope my "suggestions" based on archeologic discoveries and reports of ancient authors could be of some help for historians and amateurs as me. T. G.
King Amenhotep Ist son of king Ahmose (I) and queen Ahmose-Nefertari (grandson of Kamose) dead without male heir
Queen Ahmose-Nefertari daughter of Kamose and spouse of Ahmose
King Ahmose (I) Nebpehtire stepbrother of Kamose
When very young he spoused a Kushite princess of Meroe whose he had a daughter Ahmes-Nefertari who married king Ahmose (stepbrother of her father Kamose). According to a late tradition Kamose exiled in secret by reason of his rebelion against Ahmose king in Thebes had reigned for 40 years on the Land of Kush in Meroe, Then he came back to Egypt to take the throne become vacant after the death of king Amenophis Ist (his grandson) who died without male heir. Thus, Kamose had reached the throne when 65 years-old under the name of Thuthmose Ist, whose father and mother parents remain unknown . (However his pretended mother Seniseneb could perhaps be the spouse of king Senakhtenre son of Antef VII. That could make of him the legitimate heir of the Theban kings of the 17th dynasty). Previously Thuthmose Ist have spoused Ahmes (probably a stepsister of Amenhotep Ist, whom Ahmose-Nefertari had after the death of Ahmose, because Ahmes was not called king's daughter. Thuthmose Ist was particularly interested in Nubia. He hastened to claim to the ruler of Kerma that his accession to the throne have happened peacefully. He was particularly affected by the death of the queen-mother Ahmose-Nefertari (probably his eldest daughter). With queen Ahmes he had a daughter whom when young he designed to be his heir to the throne : queen Hatshepsout Maâtkare. With another spouse Mutnofret, he had a son, the future king Thuthmose II who married his stepsister Hatshepsut.
Next pageTo precise the life time of these figures in the history of Egypt, I tried to reconstruct a chronology of events in which they participated basing on a date astronomically sure at + 15 years. This observation of the helical rising of the star named Sirius in the 9th year of the reign of king Amenhotep Ist happened in 1527 B.C. Click here to view the chronology of this period located between the end of the Middle Kingdom and the beginning of the New Kingdom. For that it is called "Second Intermediate Period" by egyptologists, but it is still poorly elucidated.

King Seqenenre Taâ Uncle (and stepbrother) of Kamose and father of Ahmose
Queen Teti-sheri Mother of Ahhotep and grandmother and nurse of Kamose
