Nefertiti and Akhenaten part 5: Return to Amun

The transcript discusses the reign of Nefa Nefaru Atan, possibly Nefertiti, and the return to polytheism in Egypt. It highlights the repurposing of funerary goods for Tutankhamun, originally meant for Nefa Nefaru Atan. The narrative covers the succession of pharaohs, including Tutankhamun's distancing from the Atan cult and the political shifts that followed.
