During the New Kingdom of ancient Egypt, the capital established by Amenhotep IV, who later changed his name to Akhenaten, was Akhetaten, known today as Amarna. This city was dedicated to the worship of the sun deity Aten and marked a significant religious shift in Egyptian history. Akhetaten served as a center for Akhenaten's radical monotheistic reforms and was notable for its distinctive art and architecture. The city was eventually abandoned after Akhenaten's reign, and the capital was moved back to Thebes.
