AmonAmun, also known sometimes as Amon, was one of the most important of the ancient Egyptian gods, and is commonly identified with Ra as Amun-Ra. For further discussion, see Amun. In Egyptian hieroglyphs, his name is ỉmn: i-Y5:n or, as Amun-Ra, he is ỉmn-rc: i-Y5:n-N5:Z1-A40.
There are also two people called Amon in the Bible: 1. The governor of Samaria in the time of Ahab. The prophet Micah was committed to his custody (1 Kings 22:26; 2 Chr. 18:25). 2. Amon of Judah was a king of the kingdom of Judah and son of Manasseh.
Amon (as in Amon Amarth) means also Mountain or Mount in Sindarin, an artificial language by J. R. R. Tolkien.
