No Departure (Exodus) without Arrival
Joseph is supposedly an afterthought (Genesis 37)
Trader Yuya was counselor of the Pharaohs Thut-mosis IV (1397-1388 BCE) and Amen-hotep III (1388-1351 BCE). He was an immigrant in Egypt, living in Akhmim (Upper Egypt) at the Nile, downstream of the royal city. Given the spelling of his name, he was probably the same person as Joseph, who later was added as the eleventh son on the family tree of Jacob.
Yuya was married to Tuya (Anath), an Egyptian noblewoman. Their daughter Tiye (born 1398 BCE) became Queen in 1388, as the wife of Amen-hotep III, and their son Ay (born 1376) became pharaoh in 1323, as the husband of Ankh-es-en-amon.
