Pharaoh Akhenaton's monotheism (Fourteenth century BC).

Akhnaton Akhnaton is the king of Egypt, the pharaoh Amenhotep IV «Amon satisfied», and called in classical sources Omnovis. His father, Amenhotep III (1417 -1379 BC)., And his mother, Tiye, which descended from the popular environment, as opposed to what is known about the wives of the pharaohs who Thdrn of distinct strains. The T is his wet nurse, and her husband, the commander of vehicles Aye, aunt and sister of the Queen Mother is the «death star» Moutnejmet.
 
     And talk to the sources for his marriage to Princess Nefertiti (Fine came) have described the sources of beauty wonderful, and as Princess Mitanih without being based on that evidence, it is known about the origin, and swirling a lot of mystery about family ties to the royal family and the members of the footnote that lived in her dependents. But it is known fact that the royal couple blessed with six daughters, of whom the roar of Merritt and wife Kara Smonkh Okhansn Baaton wife Tutankhaten (Tutankhamun

 He received the young king named Royal, which was carried after his coronation «Nfarrakbrora» but after six years of his ascendancy to the throne called himself «Akhenaten», a name made ​​famous by.
 
     The rule of Akhenaten nearly two decades (1379-1362 BC)., But the beginning of his rule by the end of the rule of his father mixed up, which reached the height of Egypt in his glory in ancient history, and extended its influence from the island Lafratip and Anatolia, Crete and the Aegean Sea basin to the Nuba

Religious teachings
     Under these conditions began to Amenhotep IV, a crown prince, and in the life of his father, the practice of worship and religious rites inherited from his ancestors, especially those attached to Amun - Ra god official of the state. And taken at the same time announce the new religious ideas evolved until it turned into heresy (heresy) to exit on the prevailing traditional teachings. But the renewed religious orientations increased visible after succeeded his father on the throne. In the sixth year of his reign (1374 BC). King announced the principles of a new religion calls for the worship of one God is «roar», was like the winged sun disk. It is without cutting the King prayer traditions inherited work to highlight some of the manifestations, which he saw more realistic in the expression of God who wanted to be closer to all people, and globally, is present everywhere, in that era, which opened when Egypt closed the meeting including the surrounding its neighbors, and had to because of it to reconsider the foundations of the internal and spiritual life.

 Does not include worship in the new religion of Akhenaten any secret process, not imposed on people of certain rituals, but does not know how was the transition from the old to the worship of new worship. Archaeological evidence that Akhenaten established a number of physical facilities, most notably the famous Temple of Karnak (near Luxor today), and the city of Okhitt Aten, his new capital, which the Tel el-Amarna in Upper Egypt over the ruins of old.

At the site known today as the Karnak complex includes a number of ancient temples, which was the most important house of the god Amun, a favorite of the ruling class of the eighteenth dynasty, and is surrounded by homes of senior priests. In this place, and to the east of the pyramid temple of Amun resided Akhenaten to Aten, the sun bright. The aim was to establish a clear and a new religion to replace the old worship. And went on an impressive poetic hymns to the Lord Aten, the sun disk symbol to him, and declared that there is no life for nothing without him.

 In his call for renewed King declares the priest that the blessings of Aten is not restricted to Egypt and its people, but it is for creatures in every place of human beings and animals, granted Aten when Chrogah power of the objects and give them life in order to continue the grace of life, when the twilight fade away life in every way. When the world loses its breath of life, enters this world in depression, at a time when the sun shipped a new card, where were disappearing from sight. He found a number of researchers similarity between the content of these songs and Alokhanatonah Psalms attributed to David (tenth century BC). Especially Psalm 104.

 In Religion Alokhanatonah introduced amendments to the theories concerning the death and funeral rites, and traditions of burial, and made new interpretations Nchoria Aloozyreh ancient traditions of the other world. The Amon, a hidden force, as its name implies, no longer represents the king, nothing but what is amazing. The king, who chose a name for the god known in the ancient Pyramid Texts, of the third millennium BC. M is any planet Aten the sun the source of all things, came to be called when any of his subjects Akhenaten «Abdul Aten». The roar of that which was in the Middle Kingdom has aerial photograph of the king at his departure to the world of the dead, this is back when its transformation into meat sacred, to the body, which came out of it.

Akhenaten and use the arts to spread his teachings, the work himself on the education of artists and guide them in his time it was seen necessary to translate his ideas in the new religiousforms and realistic. In the east of the temple of Karnak, which set up by the roar of the king's image and treated with pictures of his family realistically amazing. Highlighted in the form ofAkhenaten distortions intended for the body, and painted on facial signs of a function ofintrospection when the artist who was interested to reflect on his experience of self-deep in a preview of what is going on in thought at that stage of the history of Egypt, and expression effortaims to express the emotions interior of the object to portray the true shape of the body.Vokhanaton recommend that everything must be sacrificed for truth, which is the source ofbalance and justice and a life of holiness picture elements as reflected in a mirror of faith.
Akhenaton (Akhenaten, Ikhnaton) or Amenhotep IV is the tenth pharaoh of the Eighteenth Dynasty ruled with his wife Nefertiti Home for 17 years ago in 1369 BC. M. (Died 1336 BC or 1334 BC), a word meaning Akhenaten (the Savior of the Aten).

Tried to unite the gods of ancient Egypt, including the god Amun-Re in the form of one god, Aten, although there are doubts about the extent of his success in this, and moved the capital from Thebes to his new capital Akhetaten, queens, and showing the art realistic, especially in sculpture, painting and literature, which emerged new features anthem of God's new Aten, or what is now Tel el-Amarna system.

, Has been busy King Akhenaten Baslahath religious and went on foreign policy and management empire extended until the upper Euphrates and Nubia in the south, severing the Asian part of them, and when he died, his successor Smonkh Ka Ra and his brother, Tutankhamun, who rebounded from the doctrine of Aton and left the capital to Thebes and announced the return of the doctrine of Amun, declaring that Tut Tutankhamun, the demolition of the effects of the priests of Thebes Akhenaten and his city, and hinted his name from

 There are many theories about the fate of Akhenaten, but there is no conclusive evidence on what happened to him after years of moving to his new capital.

The continued search for the tomb of King Akhenaten has found the first tomb in the Valley of the Kings in the 19th century and in the twentieth century without reaching a firm conclusion, so I started studies by the Supreme Council of Antiquities and the University of Cairo on the mummies, as announced in February 2010 that the group had discovered through the analysis DNA analysis of genes that «the mummy in tomb 55 in the Valley of the Kings is the mummy of the father of King Golden King Tutankhamun, it was believed that the mummy belonged to a man who died between the ages of 20 and 25 years, but it turned out the result of research that he had died between the ages of 45 and 50 years, a the son of Amenhotep III and Queen T, which indicates that he himself Akhenaten

 Akhenaten was the younger son of King Amenhotep III of the Queen T, which was the great favorite of the wife of Amenhotep III, was not destined to be Akhenaten Crown until the death of his older brother Thutmose.

Extended the reign of King Amenhotep III for about 38 years, died after leaving the throne to his son Omnhotپ fourth and probably after the reign of a joint (coregency) lasted between 1 to 2 or 12 years, where it is believed that he took part of his father in power at the age of sixteen, [2], is believed to the reign of Akhenaten, is of 1353 BC --1 336 BC or 1351 BC --1 334 BC.

 There are a lot of controversy about whether Amenhotep IV took the throne after the death of his father, Amenhotep III, or whether there is a rule of common Similarly, although it is accepted that Akhenaten himself died in year 17 of his reign, and there are a lot of controversy about whether Smonkh Ka Ra Akhenaten took part in the government perhaps 2 or 3 years earlier, after Akhenaten, the pharaoh Smonkh Ka Ra only Pharaoh, it is likely that ruled Egypt for less than one year.

Try to Akhenaten when he took the throne of the country's unification of the gods of ancient Egypt, including the god Amun-Re in the form of worship of the sun god alone, and the symbol of his Baqrsa which he called Aten, he said of his idol (that one is not a partner), and in the fourth year of his reign chose Akhenaten, the site of his new capital, and began to build in the following year, he named it Akhetaten, the horizon of any furnace, and its current location is Tel el-Amarna [3]. He played the king and his beautiful wife Nefertiti, the role of mediator, between God Aten and the people.
