If you are interested in seeing more Egyptian Mythology art as I create it - you can follow on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/Jeszika Aton, the sphere of the sun, was considered an aspect of Ra until the pharaoh, Akhenaton, elevated Aton to be the first monotheistic god. As such, Aton was said to be the creator of the universe, the giver of light & life. Aton was represented as a disk with rays of light extending down to the earth as hands; those hands often held ankhs of life which he offered as a gift. As the one & only god, Aton combined not only the sun & creator roles of Ra but also the embodiment of truth & order of Ma'at. It was said that he had no human or animal embodiment & towards the end of Akhenaton's life, even images of him as a disk were prohibited as it was said that Aton was beyond the physical that humans could perceive. When the pharaoh, Akhenaton died, the other gods were restored to Egypt & Aton faded from prominence.
