In this instance, Ahmose I's mother, Ahhotpe, was probably responsible for putting down the rebellion and for this she was awarded the gold flies, an award for valor that was found on her mummy in her intact tomb at Thebes.

With Ahmose 1, the Hyksos were beaten, as he took control over their citadel, Avaris, in the north of Egypt.
To Ahmose, at Abydos, the southernmost pyramid of Egypt is found, although what remains today is little but a mound.
The pyramid did not serve the same purpose as older, more original pyramids, as Ahmose was buried in an underground chamber, cenotaph, 550 metres uphill.
