Ancient Egypt believes in a single god Amon who has several hypostases which are the different gods of Egypt according to the vizier Nespaqachouty

In the great text where he relates his ordination as priest of Amun, Nespaqachouty gives an extensive description, although pictorial – as is the rule in this particular literary genre that constitutes annals of priests –, of this very holy part of the temple which he still assimilates to the horizon-akhet : “I saw Amon in His horizon, in the perfect room, as he came out of the Rising, [and] I understood that the gods [are] [only] His hypostases, when I I saw near Him, in two rows, [myself] wrapped in a tunic and wearing the insignia of Maat, since I was, as prefect of the City, as Thoth among the court of Re. » (the universe sanctuary of the gods, Luc Gabolde) https://hal.science/hal-01895072/document
