Amun, the king of the gods, was a powerful deity in ancient Egyptian mythology. Originally a local god associated with the wind and fertility, Amun rose to prominence in Thebes during the New Kingdom. He was often depicted as a ram-headed man or simply a ram, symbolizing his connection to fertility. Amun was believed to be the creator of the universe and the protector of the pharaohs. His cult was the most powerful and popular in Egypt for centuries, and his temple at Karnak was one of the largest and most magnificent in the ancient world.
