During the history of Egypt's Pharoahs, there was one Pharoah and his Queen that made a henotheistic religion. The belief of a single god, but did not deny the existence of other gods. The Pharoah was Akhenaten, and the Queen was Nefertiti of the 18th Dynasty; the parents to the famed king, King Tutankhamen. The henotheistic religion they set in, believing in only Aten, did not last once their son came into rule. The henotheistic religion was replaced by the old polytheistic religion where they worship many gods.
