Facts about Amun Ra | The ancient Egyptian’s God

05 16, 2023

In his highest form, Amun-Ra was a hidden god, as his name implies, not only was the god hidden, but his name was also hidden and his form was incomprehensible. In other words, the mystery surrounding Amun was due to his absolute perfection. He could renew and recreate himself, which was represented by his ability to transform into a serpent and shed his skin, yet he remained different from creation, separate and independent of it. Don’t miss the opportunity through Egypt Classic Tours to discover the great temples of Amun.

In his union with Ra, the sun, Amun revealed himself to creation, and thus Amun-Ra combined in himself the two divine opposites: as Amun he was hidden, mysterious, and separate from the world, and as Ra he was manifest, visible, and the giver of daily life. On the same hand, he was associated with Maat, the Egyptian concept of justice and balance in the universe. Some have argued that Amun was a relatively recent god in ancient Egyptian religion since his worship at Thebes where his oldest temples are located, you can discover it by experiencing Egypt Christmas Tours with your family and friends. The Amun Ra was not documented until the Eleventh Dynasty, but he is found mentioned in the Pyramid Texts dating back to the reign of King Unas, the last of the Fifth Dynasty.

When the kings of the Eighteenth Dynasty took up arms outside the previously known borders of Egypt in successful military campaigns against Syria, Nubia, and Libya, Amun became a national god of Egypt, known worldwide. Visitors come to see the temples of Amun during Egypt Easter Tours to watch the great temples of the ancient gods. The kings of Egypt attributed all their victories, achievements, and glories to Amun and lavished wealth, gifts, and spoils on his temples. Amun enjoyed great popularity among the people as he was called the defender of the poor, the protector of the weak from the strong, and the guardian of justice. Anyone seeking help from Amun had to prove his purity or be cleansed of his sins first.
