Akhenaten’s reign from 1352BC-1336BC is one of those studies in Ancient History that can be excruciatingly frustrating, due to sheer lack of evidence, Akhenaten just so happened to almost be erased from history.

Others claim he was “the worlds first idealist… and individual”. Accentuated by his iconoclastic religious reformation and relocation of Egypt’s capital city.
I decided to place these items into his burial place because without them, he would not have access to them in the afterlife. I think some of the gods that were incorporated into his tomb were Ra, Osiris, Anubis, and Thoth. I believe all four of these gods where very important in his life. Ra was the Son God, and many pharaohs worshiped him. Osiris was the son of Geb and Nut, and was honored as the God of the underworld or afterlife.
Akhenaten, also known as Amenhotep IV, was one of the most intriguing Pharaohs of Egypt. His 17-year old reign (c.1353-1336 BCE) was revolutionary to the country of Egypt. Under his leadership, he transformed the cultural, spiritual, and political life of the people in Egypt during 1353-1336 BCE. The life-giving sun deity, Aten, was a new religion honoring a single God founded by Amenhotep.

How would you feel if you lived in a country that made you fight in a war at the age of 12 and you'll either get forgiven or send to jail? You should be sent to jail if you joined for fun and liked killing. But if you joined to protect others and to do it for a good reason then you should be forgiven. I think kids should be forgiven because maybe they were forced to, they did it for protection, and they did it so they won’t hurt them or kill them, and because they needed a shelter, food and because they were poor. One reason I think child soldiers should be forgiven is because maybe they were forced to join and kill.

This prevents animals from living in some areas of the largest river in the world. This river was important not only to plants and animals, but it also influenced Egypt itself. Because of this river, the Egyptians had a place to settle down, develop a religion, trade, and eat.
