Description
poser 7 and photoshop cs2Amun Re, represented the essential and hidden, whilst in Re he represented revealed divinity. As the creator deity "par excellence", he was the champion of the poor and central to personal piety. Amun Re was self created, without mother and father, and during the New Kingdom he became the greatest expression of transcendental deity in Egyptian theology. He was not considered to be immanent within creation nor was creation seen as an extension of himself. Amun Re did not physically engender the universe. His position as King of Gods developed to the point of virtual monotheism where other gods became manifestations of him. With Asar, Amun Re is the most widely recorded of the Egyptian gods. He was also widely worshipped in the neighboring regions of Ancient Libya and Nubia.

I'd love your work!! Detail facial expression and perfect colouring. But ancient egyptians didn't have such dark skin. Not to offense, but they look like Nubians dressed in egytian custom.

There are actually many Egyptologists from like Shaw, Lesko, etc. etc. who acknowledge this basic FACT-- NO soil or land determinative used at all the symbols for Kmt are black coal for Kem and the symbol for people. Thus Kmt means black people or literally blacks. Western Egyptology contrived this deception that the Egyptians called their country Kemet or Black after the color of the soil. from Herodotus, “Egypt is a land of black soil…We know that Libya is a redder earth.” (Herodotus, The History, book 2:12); conveniently ignoring the fact that he also mentioned that the Egyptian people were black as well. So, to anyone not familiar with the Ancient Egyptian language, this "Kemet = black soil" may seem plausible. It is not. www.stewartsynopsis.com/black_… , www.dailygrail.com/blogs/fahim…

Thank you for this comprehensive information. And yes, the Ancient Egyptians, especially those from the early dynasties, were of dark skin, unlike what the white dominant society would have us believe. The research has been done on this point and your explication displays this quite well.
