Akhenaten may have been influenced by the Hebrew people as the first recorded leader in history to switch his civilization from a polytheistic religion to monotheistic.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

Although there are no options attached we can say the following.

Yes, Akhenaten may have been influenced by the Hebrew people as the first recorded leader in history to switch his civilization from a polytheistic religion to a monotheistic one.

That is precisely where Historians get confused and they do research to understand who influenced who. But it really makes sense that Pharaoh Akhenaten received the influence of the Hebrew people because, in the history of Egypt, Egyptians had always believed in a polytheistic religion.

Pharoh Akhenaten is an important figure from Egyptian history. Once he gained status as pharaoh, he wiped out the long-lasting, traditional

polytheistic order of religion and introduced Egypt (for a short time) to a monotheistic order based on the Sun-disk god, Atun.

Akhenaten (1353-1336 BCE) ruled as a Pharoh of the 18th dynasty and decided to install the honoring of the God Amun and put in practice a monotheist religion. This decision was not well accepted in ancient Egyptian society and this generated many problems for Akhenaten.
