Akhenaten 

Akhenaten's monotheism was called "Atenism". "Aten (sun ☀ Psalm 84:11; star 🌟 or sun ☀ Genesis 1:3-5) originally seen as an aspect of the Egyptian Sun God "Ra"(Amen or Amun), the Egyptian creator deity who created the rest of the gods and the cosmos. Originally, Aten was the rays of the sun that sustained the cosmos. Much of this religion was thought to be destroyed after the discovery by other nations, but some of what was left of it was later uncovered, and with the onset of Atenism, from what they had recovered this is what is known about the religion:

1. The only God was Aten, who created and sustained the cosmos.

2. Akhenaten forbade iconographic depictions of Aten (not human like); he was only depicted as a circular sun disc with rays of light.

3. Aten was later, no longer, identified with the sun that sat 93 million miles away from earth; although that is what we, till this day, call it. But, rather the "ball of light" that roams the earthly sky in a up and down motion (Genesis 1:3-5; Psalm 84:11), being dentified as the sustaining force that gives life: knowledge, wisdom, and understanding—to all creation on earth.
Do you know that "Akhenaten" is the God of the Torah, Bible, and Quran right?

"Akhenaten" is believed to had given the prophet Moses the ten commandments.

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
