Armant (Arabic: أرْمَنْت; Ancient Egyptian: jwn.w-n-mnṯ.w or jwn.w-šmꜥ.w; Bohairic: ⲉⲣⲙⲟⲛⲧ; Sahidic: ⲣ̄ⲙⲟⲛⲧ), also known as Hermonthis (Ancient Greek: Ἕρμωνθις), is a town located about 19 km (12 miles) south of Thebes. It was an important Middle Kingdom town, which was enlarged during the Eighteenth Dynasty. It is located today in the Luxor Governorate on the west bank of the Nile.

The ruined Temple of Hermonthis (sometimes Temple of Monthu) sits in the middle of the modern town.
