The Amarna Period, which lasted from approximately 1353 to 1336 BCE, was marked by significant religious and artistic changes in ancient Egypt under Pharaoh Akhenaten. Akhenaten shifted the worship from traditional polytheism to the exclusive worship of the sun disk, Aten, leading to the establishment of a new capital at Amarna. This period also saw a distinctive artistic style characterized by more naturalistic and expressive forms, moving away from the rigid conventions of earlier Egyptian art. The changes were largely reversed after Akhenaten's death, with a return to traditional religious practices and art forms.
