A received coregency with Amenhotep III opens the Aten-court file

A received coregency with Amenhotep III is a public chronological heading of the early reign. The dated opacity is not the later name-change to Akhenaten and not the capital move. Akhenaten’s documented role is: Some monuments are read as a coregency with Amenhotep III. The father still lived or did not; the debate is public; unique years are contested. A coregency debate is not the Akhenaten renaming. Later editors, printers, and excavators remain named where they appear.
