Ahmose (18th dynasty)

Ahmose (“Child of the Moon”) was an Ancient Egyptian prince and High Priest of Re during the eighteenth dynasty. He was probably a son of Pharaoh Amenhotep II. [dodson, p.137]

He was in office as High Priest of Re in Heliopolis during the reign of his brother Thutmose IV. A stela of his, which originally stood probably in Heliopolis, is now in Berlin, his broken statue (probably from Koptos) is in Cairo. [Dodson & Hilton, op.cit., pp.137] .
