History

Horemheb was a general in Egypt during the 18th Dynasty.[1]

He was seemingly the lover of Ankhessenaum, daughter and former wife of Akhenaten, and then wife of Tutankhamun.[3]

Horemheb murdered 17-year-old Akhenaten's son and successor Tutankhamun,[1] although another account showed a god killing Tutankhamun (possibly an actual god, or Horemheb in disguise),[3] in order to claim the throne. He also slew Akhenaten's vizier Ay.[2] He restored the worship of the old gods of Egypt, eradicating the monotheistic worship of Aten and all traces of Akhenaten.[1]
