Thutmose III destroyed the Kushite palace at Kerma during his military campaigns in Nubia around the 15th century BCE to assert Egyptian dominance over the region. The destruction was part of a broader strategy to eliminate rival powers and secure Egypt's southern borders. By dismantling the palace, Thutmose aimed to demonstrate his authority and discourage any future resistance from the Kushites. This act also symbolized Egypt's supremacy and control over Nubian territories.
