Also called Amon, Ammon, Amen, etc. Egyptian God of creation. "King of the Gods" Amun is portrayed as an ithyphallic God carrying a whip, either standing or enthroned. He is sometimes shown as a ram with a uraeus (coiled cobra) atop his head.
This was all the info I had to go on. I was intrigued with this God so i did a search and found some very good links about him. This one was my favorite so I thought I would share it with you all.
