(also Amun, Amen) - A neter associated with creation, popular in the city of Thebes, whose name means "Hidden One." Worship of this neter remained steady until interrupted by the brief reign of Pharaoh Akhenaton who banned the existing pantheon in favor of one deity, Aton. Amon worship was restored upon Akhenaton's death by the successor to the throne, the young boy-king Tutankhamon.

In demonology, Amon is a Marquis of Hell. He controls forty legions of spirits. He appears as a wolf with a serpent's tail, and breaths fire, or appears as a man with dog's teeth in the head of a raven, or simply as a man with a raven's head.

Amon was a Formula One team that competed in 1974.
