Tutankhamen: Amenism, Atenism and Egyptian Monotheism

This study places Tutankhamen within the religious upheavals of the Amarna period, especially the tension between traditional Amen worship and Atenist reform. It is significant as an example of early interpretive Egyptology, and readers will find historical analysis of royal religion, theology, and the politics of belief in ancient Egypt.

E. A. Wallis Budge (1857–1934) was a British Egyptologist, museum curator, and prolific translator whose editions of Egyptian funerary and religious texts became foundational in the study of ancient religion and occult reception. His publications helped popularize ancient Egyptian spirituality in both scholarly and esoteric circles.
