Pharoh Amenhotep IV
Re
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 ancient Egyptian Horus was god of the living Pharaoh, rulers, law, war, young men, light, the sun, and more. In ancient Egypt there did not seem to be a certain time one could, or could not worship Horus.
Pharaoh Akhenaten
Anubis was never a pharaoh of Egypt, he was a god in the Egyptian religion.
Amenhotep IV or Akhenaten.
If I recall, I think it was Akhenaton
Aton
Nefertiti, and her husband Pharaoh Akhenaten, had a monotheistic religion and introduced that to the Egyptian culture, replacing their polytheistic religion. A monotheistic is the belief in one god/goddesses or higher power. A polytheistic is the belief in many gods/goddesses and higher powers. Their monotheistic religion believed in only the god, Aton.
Pharaoh Akhenaten of ancient Egypt wanted everyone to worship only one god, Aten. He implemented a monotheistic religion that focused solely on the worship of the sun disc, Aten, and tried to eliminate the worship of other deities.
Aton/Aten was at one time regarded as the only god by the pharaoh Amenhotep IV (Akhenaten). No goddess is mentioned as his consort.
Aton was an ancient Egyptian deity representing the sun disk, and he became prominent during the reign of Pharaoh Akhenaten in the 14th century BCE. Aton was worshipped as the sole god in a radical religious shift known as Atenism, which emphasized monotheism and the direct relationship between the pharaoh and the sun. This shift aimed to diminish the influence of the traditional polytheistic priesthood and the worship of other gods. The cult of Aton ultimately fell out of favor after Akhenaten's death, leading to a return to the traditional pantheon of Egyptian gods.
