Thutmose II was an ancient Egyptian pharaoh of the 18th dynasty, ruling during the New Kingdom period. He is known for his military campaigns and for continuing the construction projects initiated by his father, Thutmose I. His reign is often overshadowed by that of his more famous wife and half-sister, Hatshepsut, who later assumed the throne.
