Cutehector:
I am thinking its Ramses
Thutmose (Thotmes) II (1493 or 1492 to 1479 BC). Alfred Edersheim proposes in his "Old Testament Bible History" [10] that Thutmose II is best qualified to be the pharaoh of Exodus based on the fact that he had a brief, prosperous reign and then a sudden collapse with no son to succeed him. His widow
Hatshepsut then became first Regent (for Thutmose III ) then Pharaoh in her own right. Edersheim states that Thutmose II is the only Pharaoh's mummy to display cysts, possible evidence of plagues which spread through the Egyptian and Hittite Empires at that time.

Ramesses II (c. 1279-1213 BC): Also known as Ramesses the Great, he is the most commonly imagined figure in popular culture (most widely via the 1956 film The Ten Commandments ), being one of the most long standing rulers at the height of Egyptian power, but there is no documentary or archaeological evidence that he chased any slaves fleeing Egypt. Ramesses II's late 13th century BC
stela in Beth Shan mentions two conquered peoples who came to "make obeisance to him" in his city of Raameses or Pi-Ramesses but mentions neither the building of the city nor, as some have written, the Israelites or Hapiru.[13] Additionally, the historical Pithom was built in the 7th century BC, during the Saite period.

The ancient egyptians were not berbers either, They had an Eritrean Origin but Nilo-saharan culture(ultimately derived from cultures of the Niger-Congo area, that is why you can tell a lot of cultural similarities between ancient Egypt(especially pre-dynastic upper egypt) and old west and central african culture
They are more related to East Africans. Don't claim imaginary connection. Nigerians are now following BA obsession with Egypt.
