Aten temples out of Amarna

الملخص EN

The Atenism has been presented as a monotheistic religion associated with the presence of Akhenaten, who played the role of mediator.

This religion began in Luxor and then moved with Akhenaten to El-Amarna.

It has also been argued that this religion did not spread beyond the hill of El-Amarna, which was its only center, however, archaeological evidence from different sites in Egypt has demonstrated the opposite.

The aim of this paper is to present a further interpretation of the Atenism and its spread all over Egypt.

Archaeological data concerning the existence of archaeological structures dedicated to Aten out of El-Amarna will be the focus of this paper.
