Aten
Akhenaten
Aten/Aton was the disc of the sun in ancient Egyptian mythology, and originally an aspect of Ra - whom the pharaoh Akhenaten proclaimed was the only god [in this way, all gods in the Egyptian pantheon were "aspects" of the one true god Ra]. Akhenaten, this pharaoh's adopted name, meant "living spirit of Aten". Monotheistic "Atenism" was established by Akhenaten as the state religion until it was again replaced by traditional polytheistic Egyptian mythology after Akhenaten's death.
There are several famous Egyptian kings. Some of these include Ramesses II, Akhenaten, King Tut, as well as Pepi II.
Akhenaten is especially noted for attempting to compel the Egyptian population in the monotheistic worship of Aten,
Not a what a who - he was a King of Egipt before Moses and he turned the religon into monotheism he made the people only worship Aton. The people hated him for this and they were happy when he no longer ruled.
The Egyptian god Anubis was the god of embalming.
King Tutankhamun, a pharaoh in the Eighteenth Dynasty in ancient Egypt, lived from 1341 BCE to 1323 BCE. Tutankhamun became king at the age of nine upon the death of his father Akhenaten. Akhenaten's abolition of Egypt's polytheistic religion and his focus upon one god, the sun god Aten, drastically changed Egypt's religious traditions. During his reign, Tutankhamun and his regents began to return ancient Egyptian religious traditions back to their pre-Akhenaten norms.
He mandated worship of one god exclusively
