Was thutmose iii born after or before hatshepsut?

0

He was born after Hatshepsut. He was the son of her husband and half-brother Thutmose II to a lesser wife/concubine. When Thutmose II died of illness, Thutmose III was still a child, and therefore Hatshepsut ruled as his regent, eventually proclaiming herself Pharaoh of egypt. Thutmose succeeded his stepmother more than 20 years later; but there is no great evidence of a hatred between the two, rather a sense of mutual respect and admiration, as they are shown as equals on many monuments, and Thutmose’s role as head of the military indicates the trust Hatsheput Had in him.
