Akhenaten, Pharaoh
of Egypt, was married to the beautiful Nefertiti,
and was followed on the throne by Tutankhamun (his
son, the famous King Tut). Four years into his reign
Akhenaten overthrew the old religious order of Egypt
in favor of one god, Aten the sun god. Akhenaten
moved the center of government from Thebes to Akhetaten
(Horizon of the Aten), a fabulous new city that he
built in the desert as a center for the worship of
Aten.
For these actions,
Akhenaten was known as the "heretic" king.
After his death, the old religious order was re-established,
and his image was erased from almost every monument
in Egypt. Only a few statues and drawings remain.
