Not so sure it was Thutmose, I saw on Discovery Channel that Rameses III was the Pharaoh (he ruled the longest).

abagworo, Pharoahs looks was determined by which era. Early Egyptian or Late Egyptian. Rameses I, II, III, Thutmose, Nefertiti, Hapshepsut (long ruling queen), Akenatan etc would look like modern day Egyptians, Ethiopians, Eritrean,Sudanese and co. Later Pharoahs like Cleopatra and Ptolemy were Greeks and would look like dark skinned Europeans.

Not modern day Egyptians! Those are arabs who displaced the original inhabitants.

Their DNA has been studied. Arabs invasion accounts for 10% of modern Egyptian DNA. They are still mostly berbers and co, more related to Libyans and co, desert-dwellers (Tuaregs in Niger are light skinned too), more than dark skinned African.

Researchers found the bust of the statue and the lower part of the head (pictured) yesterday.

It is believed to be of Ramses the Great, the most powerful and celebrated ruler of ancient Egypt, who ruled from 1279 to 1213 BCE.

Explorers:


I learnt Israelites spent about 400yrs of slavery in Egypt.

During this period, lots of Pharaohs have ruled.

But according to ask&quora, i learnt moses approached Pharaoh Thutmose III 'let my people go'.

The Exodus (from Greek ἔξοδος exodos, "going out"wink is the founding, or etiological, myth of Israel; its message is that the Israelites were delivered from slavery by Yahweh and therefore belong to him through the Mosaic covenant.[1][Notes 1] It tells of the enslavement of the Israelites in Egypt following the death of Joseph, their departure under the leadership of Moses, the revelations at Sinai (including the Ten Commandments), and their wanderings in the wilderness up to the borders of Canaan.[2] The exodus story is told in the books of Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, and Deuteronomy, and their overall intent was to demonstrate God's actions in history, to recall Israel's bondage and salvation, and to demonstrate the fulfillment of Israel's covenant.[3]

The historicity of the story continues to attract popular attention, but the archeological evidence does not support the historicity of the Book of Exodus.[4] The opinion of the overwhelming majority of modern biblical scholars is that it was shaped into its final present form in the post-Exilic period,[5] although the traditions behind it are older and can be traced in the writings of the 8th century BCE prophets.[6] It is unclear how far beyond that the tradition might stretch: according to historian Carol Redmount, "Presumably an original Exodus story lies hidden somewhere inside all the later revisions and alterations, but centuries of transmission have long obscured its presence, and its substance, accuracy and date are now difficult to determine."[3]

The Exodus has been central to Judaism: it served to orient Jews towards the celebration of God's actions in history, in contrast to polytheistic celebrations of the gods' actions in nature, and even today it is recounted daily in Jewish prayers and celebrated in the festival of Pesach. In secular history the exodus has served as inspiration and model for many groups, from early Protestant settlers fleeing persecution in Europe to 19th and 20th century African-Americans striving for freedom and civil rights.[7]
