Lord god:
Eamon
The Greek name of the Egyptian god, which means "the hidden man" (also spelled "Amon"), is one of the eight Ogdoads, and his spouse is Mutt. At first, he was just a local god in Thebes. At that time, Thebes was just an unknown town on the east bank of the Nile, located in the surrounding area of today's Karnak Temple. The 1 1 dynasty originated from a family in Hermon Hite (or perhaps Thebes), who decorated temples with statues. Amon's name was incorporated into the name of Amon Nimhurt, the founder of the 12th dynasty. The name was inherited by his three heirs. Several kings of the Middle Kingdom also adopted the same name; The 17 dynasty in Thebes drove out the Hixos, and Amon was once again highlighted as the god of the imperial city.
However, it was not until the rulers of the 18th dynasty drove their victorious troops from all directions to the border that Amon began to become a universally recognized god in Egypt, excluding other Egyptian gods and even going out of Egypt to become the god of the universe. The pharaohs attributed all their victories to Amon and spent wealth and labor on the temple of Amon.
Amon is depicted as a human figure, wearing a headband with two parallel feathers sticking out straight from the headband. This may symbolize the tail feather of an eagle. Amon has two common images: one is sitting on a throne, and the other is standing with a whip, much like the gods of Coptos and Akhmim. The latter may be his original image. God of fertility. The king cultivates the land to be sown or harvests ripe grain before him. His spouse is sometimes called amaunet (negative word for amunemmon), but is usually called Mut. She has a head and wears a double crown of upper and lower Egypt. Their son's name is Jones.
The name of the sun god Ra is sometimes combined with the name of Amon, especially when he is the "king of the gods". In Egypt, the sovereignty of the kingdom of heaven belongs to the sun god, and Amon is the highest god, so logically speaking, Amon is La. Amon is called "the king of the two continents on the throne", or more proudly "the king of the gods".
Horus (also known as Heru-sa-Aset Horu = sand = aset, Hrw, Hr and Hor-Hekenu).
The patron saint of Pharaoh in ancient Egyptian mythology is a symbol of kingship. His image is the eagle head god.
Like many other gods, the essence of Horus, as well as the stories and legends about him, are constantly changing with the development of history. Horus can be regarded as a combination of many other gods related to imperial power and the sky. Most of these gods are sun gods. This is very similar to the Christian view of the Trinity of God.
Heru -ur (also known as Harmerti Hamedi) is the earliest version in Horus. He is a god of creation in the form of a falcon. His eyes are the sun and the moon. When the new moon appeared, he became blind and was called Mekhenty-er-irty (meaning "man without eyes"). When his eyesight recovered, he was also called Khenty-irty (meaning "a man with eyes"). When he was blind, Horus was very dangerous. He sometimes mistook his friends for enemies and attacked him. He is the son of Gaby and Knodt and the patron saint of Letopolis.
When Horus was a child, he was called Har-pa-khered (meaning "Horus" and called Harpocrates in Greek). He is the son of Osiris and Ai Xisi or Barneberget and Hartmeht. He is depicted as a naked boy with fingers, sitting on the lotus with his mother. This form of Horus is the god of fertility. He often carries a cornucopia. During the Roman Empire, the image of Hal-Pa-Heller was widely circulated, when he was depicted riding a goose or a ram (note that his father Banebdjetet was a ram god).
Later, Horus was identified as the corpse of Osiris and the son of Ai Xisi (or the acacia tree emerging from Saos), and was usually quoted as "Horus" in many academic works.
As Har-nedj-itef (called Harendotes in Greek), Horus is Osiris' guardian in Duyate in the underworld.
As Behedti, Horus is Behdet (now Edfu), where his image is closely linked with Falcon.
As a Chenti-irti, Horus is an eagle god in charge of law and order.
Later, Horus began to combine with the image of La, especially in Heliopolis, and began to be called La-Helieti (also called La-Helu-Ahti, Her- Ahti (meaning "Horus with double horizons") and Ha-Em (meaning "Horus on the horizon").
Anhur is the name of Horus, a combination of Hugh.
In 3000 BC, Saite replaced Horus as the patron saint of Pharaoh. However, when the legend of Seth's murder of his brother spread, Horus was replaced again. There was a battle between Horus and Seth that lasted for 80 years. Horus tore off Seth's testicles and a leg, and Seth dug out Horus's left eye (Horus was called "monocular" from now on). Horus later found his eyes. With the support of Nice,
Horus has four sons. In the Egyptian belief in funerals, they took care of the internal organs of the deceased, which were packed in four Kanoppi jars: Duamutif Domtif (stomach), Kebushenov Kabu Shanaf (intestine), Hapi Habi (lung) and Imset Imset (liver).
Anubis (Anubis)
In ancient Egyptian mythology, the guardian of death or soul, who opened the road to another world for the dead, enabled the dead to reach another world smoothly. He is sometimes regarded as the god of the underworld. He is the son of Seth and Nefertis. His name is pronounced "Anpu" in hieroglyphics.
Anubis has the head of a prone black wolf (or other canines). The wolf is his symbol, and sometimes it becomes the head of a jackal or a dog. This image of the wolf is closely related to his role in mythology. Because the wolf is the scavenger of the corpse and is closely related to death, it is also regarded as the guardian of the dead. In works of art, he is also regarded as the guardian of the dead.
Anubis was originally the king of the underworld, but with the worship of Osiris, he became the patron saint of mummies and cemeteries. As the patron saint of the cemetery, Anubis' main duty is to compare the soul of the deceased with Matt's feathers on the balance. If the soul is as light as a feather, Anubis will take him to Osiris, or feed him to Anmit.
The worship of Anubis may even be earlier than Osiris. In Unas's text (line 70), he is associated with the eye of Horus. In the Book of Death, he anointed Osiris's body, wrapped him in linen woven by Ai Xisi and Nefertis, and put his hand on Osiris's body to protect him.
