COPY LINK URL ON DESCRIPTION

bAn illustrated cultural guide to the archaeological site of

Amarna, the best-preserved pharaonic city in Egypt /b Around

three thousand years ago, the pharaoh Akhenaten turned his

back on Amun, and most of the great gods of Egypt.

Abandoning Thebes, he quickly built a grand new city in

Middle Egypt, Akhetaten 8213 Horizon of the Aten 8213

devoted exclusively to the sun god Aten. Huge open-air

temples served the cult of Aten, while palaces were decorated

with painted pavements and inlaid wall reliefs. Akhenaten

created a new royal burial ground deep in a desert valley, and

his officials built elaborate tombs decorated with scenes of the

king and his city. As thousands of people moved to Akhetaten,

it became the most important city in Egypt. But it was not to

last. Akhenaten 8217 s death brought the abandonment of his

city and an end to one of the most startling episodes in

Egyptian history. Today, Akhetaten is known as Amarna, a

sprawling archaeological site in the province of Minya, halfway

between Cairo and Luxor. With its beautifully decorated tombs

and vast mud-brick ruins, it is the best-preserved pharaonic

city in Egypt. This informed and richly illustrated guidebook

brings the ancient city of Akhetaten alive with a keen insider

8217 s eye, drawing on ongoing archaeological research and

the knowledge and insight of Amarna 8217 s modern-day

communities and caretakers to explain key monuments and

events, while offering invaluable practical advice for visiting the

site. With over 150 illustrations, maps, and plans, Amarna is

both an ideal introduction for visitors to Amarna and a window

onto the extraordinary reign of Akhenaten.
