Amenhotep IV, later known as Akhenaten, was largely erased from Egyptian hieroglyphics due to his radical religious reforms that promoted the worship of the sun disc Aten over traditional polytheistic beliefs. After his death, subsequent pharaohs, particularly Tutankhamun and his advisors, sought to restore the old religious practices and erase Akhenaten's legacy, viewing him as a heretic. This erasure involved defacing his statues and removing his name from temple inscriptions to reaffirm the power of the traditional gods and the established order.
