[QUOTE]Originally posted by ausar: [QB] Let me say that I disagree with Akenaten being the only montheistic person in Egyptian history. Definatley not the case since most AE spirtual pratices the people were monlatry meaning they regonized the power of one without denying the existence of others. The equivalent we could say in modern religious is the trinty in Christainty and the 99 atributes of Allah in Islam. What you find in most Kemetian religious structure is symbolic metaphors relying on the existence of creation ,for this is the reason most temples were primordial mounds and the inner most chamber represented creation. Most of the Kemetians did not believe in idols like people think,but the ntr[gods] were probabaly actually long departed ancestors than spanned back to the pre-dyanstic era. In reality you montheism existed well before Akenaten and was found in the writtings of Ptahhotep. The text dates back either to the fifth dyansty or to the 12th dynasty. The definition of one creator deity is expressed within the text,so I would not call Kemetians polytheist. [/QB][/QUOTE]
