Akhenaten could have been promoted to co-regent at this time,1 meaning that Prince Thutmose, high priest of Memphis, decided that he didn't want to succeed his father as pharaoh, preferring the priesthood instead. So he deferred the crown to Akhenaten, and disappeared from the Egyptian records without an obituary.
