Who was Amun?
- Held as supreme in the Egyptian pantheon.
- Often depicted on a throne, thought to be a forerunner to other gods and goddesses.
- Might have been an incarnation or manifestation of ancient Sun God Ra.
- Amun was thought to be invisible to mortals, his name means concealment or 'hidden one'.
- His flesh is the blue of lapis lazuli, a stone prized by the Gods.
(Lawson, 1996)
