Akhenaten was the father of King Tut. He was also one of the most controversial Egyptian pharaohs who caused controversy during his reign.

Some believe Akhenaten was the first monotheist in history, as he dedicated Egyptian religious practice to the worship of one god, Aten, in a radical departure from traditional Egyptian polytheism.

There's a belief that Queen Nefertiti, Akhenaten's wife, held significant influence over him and might have played a key role in his religious reform.

Some believe that Akhenaten's monotheism was not the worship of Aten, but of the Sun itself as a symbol of life and energy.

There are contrasting views on Akhenaten. Some see him as a visionary who tried to revolutionize Egyptian spirituality, while others label him a heretic who imposed his personal beliefs on the entire civilization.

There are various theories regarding Akhenaten's death and burial. Some believe he was murdered due to his religious reform, while others speculate he was buried in a tomb in the Valley of the Kings, rather than in Akhetaten.
