Years: 486BCE - 486BCE

Darius, a probable Zoroastrian who apparently promotes the religion in Persia, has followed Cyrus’s example in respecting native religious institutions, empowering the Judahites to rebuild their Temple at Jerusalem and actively supporting Egyptian religion.

Assuming an Egyptian titulary in Egypt, he has built a temple to the god Amon in the Kharga oasis, endowed the temple at Edfu, and initiated restoration work in other sanctuaries.
