God Sia

God Sia, one of ancient Egyptian gods, was the deification of percept in the Heliopolitan Ennead cosmogeny and is probably equivalent to the intellectual energies of the heart of Ptah in the Memphite cosmogeny. He also had a connexion with writing and was oftentimes shown in anthropomorphic form holding a papyrus scroll. This papyrus was opinion to embody intellectual achievements. It was said that Atum created the two deities Sia and Hu from his blood spilled while cutting his own penis, a possible reference to circumcision.

Sia appeared regular on the Solar barge during its journey over the night in New Kingdom Hades texts and tomb decorations, together with Hu, the "creative utterance," and Heka, the deity of magic. These deities were seen as some powers assisting the creator, and although deity Heka had his individual cult Sia did not.

God Geb

God Geb

God Geb was one of the key gods of the Ennead, a family of nine deities revered in the city of Heliopolis start in the Early Dynastic Period. According to the Creation myth of this city, Geb's father, Shu, set out Geb from Geb's lover and sister, Nut, the goddess of the sky, and increased her up from his reposing body to form the spheres. In some versions of the myth, Geb's pain over this separation did him to fall on his face and weep profusely, thereby creating the oceans; the flat of his back as he lay prone grown  land.  Prior  to  their  separation, though, Geb and Nut made 2 sons and  2  daughters,  all  of  whom  were divinities: Osiris, Seth, Nephthys, and Isis.

As the father of god Osiris, the Egyptian God of the dead, Geb was finally knew  throughout  Egypt  as  a  major deity  and  grown  the  taken  of  other myths, one of which supplied the model for royal succession. Geb was said to have held the throne in the divine realm for a time and then went his rule on to his  son  Osiris,  just  as  human  kings gone their crowns on to their sons. Because  of  his  position,  many  kings  of Egypt strongly named with Geb, and in some times and places Egypt's kings were said to be Gebs heirs. Maybe for this reason, Geb was near always showed as having a human form, although in a few works of art he is shown with a goose atop his head. The goose was a source  to  a  myth  in  which  Geb addressed the Great Cackler made a cosmic egg that made the sun.

God Nun

God Nun

God Nun personating  the previous  waters  out  of  which  issued the creator god. Nun  is  called  father  of  the  gods but this  emphasizes  only  his  unrivalled antiquity  as  an  element  of  the  Egyptian in  terms  of  importance  he  is superseded  by  the  creator  sun deity. Nun has a continual existence natural by mythology or results and plays no part in religious rituals, owning no temples  or  priesthood.  When  defended  on tomb  walls  or  in  religeeious  papyri,  Nuns arms stuff the sun at the twelfth hour of the nighttime into the horizon to begin its journey in the day-boat.

God Mehen

Mehen keeping the bark of Ra

God Mehen was a coiled serpent-deity preservative the boat in which the sun-deity  Ra travels over the Hades. His coils envelope the kiosk on the decorate of the boat. The earliest quotation of the deity comes in a Coffin Text of the Middle Kingdom. Certain representation of the coiled one can be found in vignettes of funerary papyri and on the ramparts of tombs in the Valley of the Kings, specially  Seti I 19th Dynasty ,  and Ramses VI 20th Dynasty.

God Shezmu

linked to the cult of Shesmu,
on the walls of Nakht's tomb

God Shezmu was the Violent  god of wine and unguent-oil promotes. Shezmu is a divinity with a double personality  who  can  both  present  cruelty  and provide  benefits.  These  contrasts  are apparent as early as the Pyramid Era and coexist down to the Roman period. He is normally  envisaged  as  hominid but in the older period of Egyptian civilization  a  lion-iconography  of  this  deity goes more popular. In the spell in the Old Kingdom pyramids where the king draws extra divine strength  by  eating  tried  deities  and powerful beings, it is Shezmu as butcher who issues them up and makes them for the monarch  on  the  evening  hearth  stones. Also in the Pyramid Texts he brings the king  grape  juice  for  wine  production. There is evidence from a bowl found near the Step Pyramid that at this clip Shezmu already had a priesthood. By the Middle Kingdom  his  fad  had  went  well tried in the Faiyum.

From  the  Coffin  Texts  there  is  the living  image  of  an  Scheol  demon who squeezes out heads like grapeshots and who  lassoes  sinners  for  the  slaughter-block. A Fantastic Papyrus (Dynasty XXI) describes this vengeful aspect of the wine-press  god  by  display  two  hawk deities twisting the net of the wine fight which  takes  three  human  heads rather  of  grapes  and  explains  to  the Egyptian  brain  the  red  beam  of  the  sky after old.

God Ash

God Ash

God Ash was God of the western Desert of Egypt accepting  the  breeding  oases,  and of Tehenu or  Libya,  first  old  on sealings from the Early Dynastic Period. Although  his  dominion  is  in  what  the Ancient  Egyptians  addressed  the  Red  Land (Deshret) as opposed to the crop-bearing silt up of the Black Land (Kemet) marching the River Nile itself, Ash is not an foreigner or a deity of alien origins. He masters the get of the oases in favor of the pharaoh gone archaeology in the Egyptian western Desert has  read  how  the  Egyptian  monarch savored the prosperity of its senior fertile depressions.  Ash  also  had  ties with vineries in the western Egyptian Nile Delta.

His work is normally anthropomorphic as  attested,  e.g.  in  a  backup  from  a temple of King Sahura (Dynasty V). He can as well be  showed  with  the  head  of  a  hawk. As master of the desert an plain identification was made between Ash and Seth as early as Dynasty II. This connexion was main because Ash, it would seem, was the original god of Ombos in Upper Egypt  before  the reaching of Seth as its major deity  so an epithet  of  Ash  being  nebuty or he  of Nebut.

God Bes

God Bes

God Bes was a house god (a deity worshiped primarily at home, as defended to temple ceremonies) connected to childbirth who was first revered in Egypt during the New Kingdom. Egyptologists discord on where Bes might have developed, but Babylonia or Punt (a foreign land that might have been located in Sudan or Ethiopia) seem the most likely nominees. Egyptologists also discord on how Bes came to be linked with childbirth, particularly since the deity was saw as male. The two prevailing theories, however, relate to the deitys appearance. In many depictions, taking on Ptolemaic Period statues and birthing-room wall art, Bes was a hideous, bearded shadow with game legs. Some Egyptologists consider that these disfigurements made Bes a visible internal representation  of  a  pregnant  womans worst concerns for her child. Others believe that  the  god's  role  was  as  a  guardian whose malformations would frighten devils away from the child about to be born. It does seem that women in labor named on Bes for good luck and that he was saw a kindly deity. He was likewise said to dance with a tambourine to keep evil spirits out, and many young children wore pendants  with  his  likeness  to  have  this same protection.

God Dedun

God Apedemak was a god from Nubia in the deep south of Egypt and he bore for war and victory and was too the own protector of the king. He was venerated alongside the other great gods, especially those who came from the south border themselves same Khnum and Ankhet. His few local fellows all like him had typical Egyptian features, like Dedun - god of the four serious points, wealth and cense.

God Yam

It has indicated that the Sea looking in the tale is a god imported from Syria-Palestine, the god Yam. This designation is harder to support. It may be close that the goddess Astarte and perhaps also the god Yam was used by an Egyptian author because she fit the wants of the tale. If this is true, like the divinities of the Hittite Elkunirsha myth, she rnay be displaying the very device characteristics that she displayed in Syria-Palestine,. but she may as well have been redesigned for an Egyptian audience. It is also viable that "The S ea does not even mention to Yam. but even if it does. the bossibililv of large licence again arises. Since this rnythological rag of a story controls clear references to Egyptian religious traditions (the Ennead, Ptah, and Nut), the narrative is less be-like to have had a Syro Palestinian blood than the Elkunirsha shard.
