Stories of divine birth from the eighteenth dynasty ==The concept of kingship and divinity during eighteenth dynasty== The concept of kingship during the eighteenth dynasty has changed a lot from previous concepts however remaining faithful to middle kingdom concepts. The concepts changed with regards of the vocabulary used at this time where the concept of ‘son ship’ did not necessarily mean from father to son but it was more hierarchical where it worked in a sense of mythological attire. The names chosen during this period such as the prenomen and the Horus name started to change in a way where they started to use more humanistic qualities such as calming, protecting and uniting…etc. As for the second concept that changed during this period is the mythological descent of the god king who sat on the Horus throne where each king would have his own god as it was greatly affected by the second intermediate period where Egypt was occupied by Hyksos and they had their own god. By the time of the eighteenth dynasty, Amun the god of Thebes who has a human form, became the greatest god of Egypt and was united with Re, the sun god. Amun was given the father like form and he was looking after the king and in the new kingdom to make their kingship more legitimate stories of divine birth emerged. The king demanded respect and too much of this respect relied on stories of his divine birth as according to Barry J Kemp in his book “Ancient Egypt; anatomy of a civilization”, respect requires ‘backing of myth and the regular reinforcement of ceremony to put into perspective the shortcomings of individual kings.’ The two stories that completely survive as discussed above were the story of Hatshepsut and Amenhotep III.
