living in the cosmic waters of Nun,
symbolizing the forces of chaos and evil; he
attacks Ra’s solar barque on its journey
through the dark hours of the day, but
defeated nightly by Set, who is positioned at
the bow of the boat; defeat of this serpent
signifies the final real challenge to the
pharaoh’s soul on its journey to the Duat; one
myth recalls that Apophis was an earlier form of Ra that was discarded, accounting
for his power

Aso — a beautiful sorceress and queen of Ethiopia, whose power was supposedly as strong

heavens and earth were separated, rising out of Nun, the waters
of chaos, to form the primeval mound; his name means “the all” or

pharaohs from the pyramid to the heavens); linked with various
animals, such as the lion, bull, lizard, serpent, and scarab beetle;

fertility, ultimately assimilated with Hathor by the New Kingdom; also represented

Horus and Set in poses of reconciliation; some scholars assert that Bata’s identity

became incorporated into two other gods: Set and Baal, a Canaanite bull god identified

“Bata,” here used as a magical name of Set, and possibly created by a phonetic shift
from “Seth” to “Beth”

escape Set’s captivity

beetle (dung beetle) who pushes the sun above the horizon and
across the sky; he is swallowed by his mother Nut each evening,

created, he is often identified with Atum; because he is associated
with the sun, he is also identified with Ra; his name comes from

of Atum, Ra, and Horus; Horus lost his left eye
