There no evidence that the long-term border of New Kingdom Egypt was ever much further north than Ugarit (at best). Yes, Thutmose I and Thumose III did undertake military campaigns as far north as [Carkemish]], but they then prompty turned around and went back south. At no time was Kizzuwatna or any part of modern Turkey part of Egypt. This map really needs to be changed as it is currently highly misleading. Whynowagain2 (talk) 06:10, 14 May 2015 (UTC)[reply]

FYI - Mediterranean is spelled wrong on this map.

Furthermore, the map claims (here that Egypt (under Thutmose III) conquered Kush including the 6th cataract. The en:Wikipedia text says that Thutmose's final campaign was into Kush, but only as far as the 4th cataract. Something is not right, here. --Enyavar (talk) 23:13, 23 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
