Aamon is a demon and the Grand Marquis of Hell and the seventh spirit of the Goetia. He is not to be confused with the Egyptian god Amun, who often shares the same name as him.

In demonology Aamon is one of Astaroth's assistants, also going by the name Amon. It is stated he knows past and future, giving that knowledge to those who would make a pact with Satan. According to the "Dictionnaire Infernal" by Collin de Plancy, he commands forty legions of demons and carries the title of prince. Demonologists have associated his name with the Egyptian god Amun or with the god Ba‘al Hammon of Carthage. Like many ancient entities, he is not all vileness and malignance, as he is also an entity many looked to reconcile friends and foes. He was also said to procure love for those seeking it.
