Akhenaten was born Amenhotep IV, heir to a stable and powerful Egypt. Temples flourished. Priests of Amun controlled vast wealth. The empire stretched deep into the Levant. Then he changed everything. In the fifth year of his reign, he abandoned his birth name and declared devotion to one god alone—the Aten, the visible disk of the sun. Not first among equals. Not supreme over others. Alone. Temples to Amun were closed. Their wealth redirected. The powerful priesthood was stripped of influence.
