Ikhnaton was an Egyptian Pharaoh.
Akhenaton or Ikhnaton, also called Amenhotep IV, pharaoh of Egypt from about 1353 to 1335 bc. Akhenaton was the son of Amenhotep III and Tiy, and husband of Nefertiti, whose beauty is now famed through celebrated portrait busts of the period. Akhenaton was the last important ruler of the 18th dynasty and notable as the first historical figure to establish a religion based on the concept of monotheism. He established the cult of Aton, or Aten, the sun god or solar disk, which he believed to be a universal, omnipresent spirit and the sole creator of the universe. Some scholars believe that the Hebrew prophets' concept of a universal God, preached seven or eight centuries later in a land that Akhenaton once ruled, was derived in part from his cult. After he established the new religion, sometimes referred to as solar monotheism, he changed his name from the royal designation Amenhotep IV to Akhenaton, meaning “He who is devoted to Aton.”

If you are stating your question directly from a homework sheet - perhaps you are asking "What is the CAPITOL of Ikhanaton?"
That being the case, then it would have to be where the statue or mummy was placed, since capitol can mean "a building or group of buildings". Therefore, if you look in the following you will find some very interesting infomation about him.
