Italian term or phrase:Amon panteo
From a description of the Egyptian Museum in Cairo:
Si prosegua nella sala 19 con una serie di statuine in bronzo, talvolta con incrostazioni d’oro, di divinità, tra le quali si riconoscono, tra le altre, un Amon panteo, una bella Iside alata e il dio Imhotep

PANTHEON AMON
Appearing, in the neighborhood of Thebes at the beginning of the Middle kingdom, Amon was represented as a human being sometimes with a ram\'s head. Mut, the Goddess near Karnak and Khons, the Moon God are his wife and son. Politics gave Amon historical success, for he was the God of the Theban Kings who drove out the Hyksos.
Thanks a lot! I went with this one. I considered Amon-Ra (thanks Mario!) but that very term appears later in the text so I didn't want to cause any confusion. 4 KudoZ points were awarded for this answer
Hi folks, I know what "Panteo" means. What I need to find out is if there is an "official" name for this or not. Like Pallas Athena to refer to Athena. Hope this is clear.
