Traveled up the Nile and fought in a battle against the Nubian king. Upon victory, he hung the body of the Nubian King on the prow of his ship. Organized great projects, such as the Temple of Karnak. He was the first king to drastically enlarge the temple. He was also the first king to be buried in the Valley of the Kings.
