AHMOSE II
Amasis. Throne name Khnumibre. A military commander of Wahibre
(Apries), whom he overthrew following a brief civil war. He
sought to ally Egypt with the Greeks to face the continuing threat of
Persia, including a marriage alliance with Laodike, a Greek lady
from Cyrene. Ahmose II ruled effectively for 45 years and died conveniently
just before the Persian invasion of 525 BC, as a result of
which his son, Psamtik III, was deposed and later executed
