, who is closest to King Akhenaten. He was a ruler of the Eighteenth Dynasty who ruled Egypt for 17 years and died perhaps in 1336 BC or 1334 BC , He is best known for his abandonment of traditional Egyptian polytheism and the introduction of a new cult centered on Aten , which is sometimes described as a monotheistic or hinthian religion. Early inscriptions represent Aton with the sun, by comparison with the stars. Later, the official language avoided calling Aton a god, giving him the solar deity a higher status than mere god .
