The statues are believed to be from early in his reign, which lasted arguably from either 1353 to 1336 BCE or 1351 to 1334 BCE. The excavation, begun by Henri Chevrier in 1925, uncovered twenty-five fragments of the broken colossi in Eastern Karnak in Thebes, which are now located in the Cairo Museum in Egypt. ==Description== The statues were divided into three categories based on size, the largest of which were 12.75 metres (over 41 feet) tall and the smallest, 8.55 metres (about 28 feet).〔Winfield Smith, Ray and Donald B. Redford. ''The Akhenaten Temple Project, Vol. 1: Initial Discoveries''. Warminster Aris & Phillipps, 1976〕 The pharaoh is depicted with a distorted physique not present elsewhere in the artwork of Ancient Egypt. He is portrayed with a protruding stomach, thin arms, and exaggerated facial features, such as a long nose, hanging chin and thick lips.〔Aldred, Cyril. ''Akhenaten: King of Egypt''. London: Thames and Hudson, 1988〕 One statue in particular has been the subject of much debate as it represents the king apparently nude and lacking genitals.〔Aldred, Cyril. ''Akhenaten Pharaoh of Egypt: A New Study''. London: Thames and Hudson, 1968〕 There are various theories about the destruction of the statues, one of which suggest that his elder coregent, Amenophis III, had the statues dismantled and covered up.〔Reeves, C.N. ''Akhenaten: Egypt’s False Prophet''. New York, NY: Thames & Hudson, 2001〕 A second theory suggests that Akhenaten himself had the statues torn down with a change of planning in the construction of the Aten temple.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Colossal Statues of Akhenaten at East Karnak」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク 翻訳と辞書 : 翻訳のためのインターネットリソース Copyright(C) kotoba.ne.jp 1997-2016.
