Description
This vivid history explores one of ancient Egypt’s most dramatic and controversial eras: the reign of Akhenaten, the power of Nefertiti, and the turbulent succession that culminated in Tutankhamun. Drawing on archaeology, inscriptions, art, and historical evidence, it examines the religious revolution centered on the sun disk Aten, the creation of the royal city of Amarna, and the sweeping changes that reshaped Egyptian society and culture. It also considers how this extraordinary experiment was challenged and ultimately remembered, offering an accessible and richly contextual portrait of ambition, belief, power, and legacy in the ancient world.
