A program to reinstate Amun to pre-eminence in the traditional pantheon was instituted by Akhenaten’s successors Tutankhamun, Ay, and Horemhab.    Damaged reliefs and inscriptions were restored and new statues of Amun and his consorts Mut and Amunet commissioned to replace those destroyed under Akhenaten.    In this study, over 60 statues and fragments of statues attributable to the post-Amarna Period on the basis of an inscription, physiognomy, and\/or stylistic analysis are discussed, as well as others that have been incorrectly assigned to the era.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTable of Contents\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eContents  Preface  Sources of Illustrations    Introduction   Amun’s Iconography   Amunet and Her Iconography   Genres Documented among the Post-Amarna Period Statuary  of Amun   Usurpation   Restoration of Pre- and Damage to Post-Amarna Period Statuary    Catalogue   Alexandria, Cat. 1–2   Baltimore, Cat. 2bis   Berlin, Cat. 3   Bordeaux, Cat. 3bis   Boston, Cat. 4   Brussels, Cat. 5   Cairo, Cat. 6–20   Chicago, Cat. 21   Copenhagen, Cat. 22–23   Deir el Bahari, Cat. 23bis   Doha, Cat. 24   Hanover, Cat. 25   Houston, Cat. 26   Karlsruhe, Cat. 27   Karnak, Cat. 28–33ter   Khartoum, Cat. 34   Leiden, Cat. 35–36   London   Luxor   Mit Rahina, Cat. 46bis   Mougins, Cat. 47   New York City, Cat. 48–49   Paris, Cat. 50–54   Philadelphia, Cat. 55   Seattle, Cat. 56   Turin, Cat. 57   Warsaw, Cat. 58   Location not known, Cat. 59–65bis  Bibliography","brand":"Brill","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53210803929431,"sku":"9789004434691","price":110.4,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/bookcurl.com\/products\/post-amarna-period-statues-of-amun-and-his-consorts-mut-and-amunet-9789004434691","provider":"Book Curl","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
