Tutankhamen Amenism, Atenism and Egyptian Monotheism is a book written by E.A. Wallis Budge, an Egyptologist and expert on ancient Egyptian religion. The book explores the religious beliefs and practices of ancient Egypt, focusing on the reign of Tutankhamen and the religious reforms of his predecessor, Akhenaten. Budge examines the concept of monotheism in ancient Egypt, particularly the worship of the sun god Aten and the influence of this belief on the development of Egyptian religion. The book also delves into the cult of Amun, the god of Thebes, and the role of the pharaoh as a religious figure. Through a detailed analysis of ancient texts and artifacts, Budge offers insights into the complex and evolving nature of Egyptian religion and its impact on the culture and society of the time. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in ancient Egyptian history, religion, and culture.1923. A study of the time of the Amen and Aten cults in ancient Egypt.
