Atenism, also known as the Aten religion, [1] the Amarna religion, [2] and the Amarna heresy, was a religion in ancient Egypt. It was founded by Akhenaten, a pharaoh who ruled the New Kingdom under the Eighteenth Dynasty. [3] .
Akhenaten (pronounced / ˌækəˈnɑːtən / listen ⓘ), [8] also spelled Akhenaton[3][9][10] or Echnaton[11] (Ancient Egyptian: ꜣḫ-n-jtn ʾŪḫə-nə-yātəy, pronounced [ˈʔuːχəʔ nə ˈjaːtəj] ⓘ, [12][13] meaning 'Effective for the Aten '), was an ancient Egyptian pharaoh reigning c. 1353–1336[3] or 1351–1334 BC, [4] the tenth ruler of the Eighteenth Dynasty.
Aten is the disk of the Sun in ancient Egyptian mythology, and an aspect of the Sun-god Ra. Aten was pictured as a sun with rays that ended in hands. The deified Aten is the focus of the monotheistic religion of Atenism established by Amenhotep IV, who later took the name Akhenaten in worship and recognition of the Aten.
Initially called Amenhotep IV, Akhenaten came to the throne around 1349 BCE. He spent his early years as king engaged in fairly traditional building projects, including at the great Karnak Temple, home of Amun, and in the gold-rich land of Kush (Nubia) to Egypt’s south.
The Great Temple of the Aten (or the pr-Jtn, House of the Aten) [1] was a temple located in the city of el-Amarna (ancient Akhetaten), Egypt. It served as the main place of worship of the deity Aten during the reign of the 18th Dynasty pharaoh Akhenaten (c. 1353–1336 BCE).
For the first 200 years of the 18 th Dynasty (Shaw,-2002,-p.481) Amun-Re was the primary god of Egypt. Amun-Re combined the arcane person of Amun, local god of the religious capital at Thebes, with the ontogenetic sun-god Re of Heliopolis (Moorey,-2000,-p.24).
