The ancient Egyptians believed that the deceased would need their organs in the afterlife, and that they should be carefully preserved and buried in the grave of the corpse.

Cookies PolicyPrivacy Statement above: Four Sons of Gore Rising from the Lotus Flower (Blue Lilly) Four Sons of the Mountain are sometimes described as hilarious deities, or genii (singing, genius). Their names are Imsety (imsti), Hapy (hpy, not to be confused with the god of the Nile River, happy), Duamutef and Kebehsenuef. All references to these deities are amusing in context, and it seems that no cult has ever honored them. Although the family genealogy of these deities is not well known, they are clearly listed as the sons of Gore in any number of texts. For example, while Isis are said to be their mother, in a spell of 125 Books of the Dead, they are seen as having emerged from a lotus flower (Blue Lilly). In various texts, Gore Hema, Harsies and Mountain the Elder are called their father. The four sons were also associated with four protective goddesses, usually paired with Imseti and Isis, Hapi and Oil, Duamutef and Nate, and Kebehsenuf and Selket.

May Buchanan in 1912.It preserves parts of six columns of a hieroglyphic inscription separated by vertical lines. The surviving text is part of a hymn to the sun in the form of the god Ra-Horakhty, a combination of the sun-god, Ra, with the falcon god, Horus-of-the-Two-Horizons. The inscription reads: '[Giving praise to Ra]-Hor-akhty, when he goes to his rest in life in this his great mountain […] he says, ‘Hail to you, great one of the Ennead, who comes into being […] in peace to the land of the Western mountain […]' '[… when] he rises in the eastern horizon of the sky, by the servant / deputy […] praise […]' Hymns invoking Amun-Ra-Horakhty do not appear before the 20th Dynasty, suggesting a date of the 20th Dynasty for this fragment.

    CLEAR II Egyptian Mythology and Religion Packet by Jeremy Hixson 1. According to Chapter 112 of the Book of the Dead, two of these deities were charged with ending a storm at the ​ ​ city of Pe, and the next chapter assigns the other two of these deities to the city of Nekhen. The Pyramid Texts describe these gods as bearing Osiris's body to the heavens and, in the Middle Kingdom, the names of these deities were placed on the corner pillars of coffins. Maarten Raven has argued that the association of these gods with the intestines developed later from their original function, as gods of the four quarters of the world. Isis was both their mother and grandmother. For 10 points, consisting of Qebehsenuef, Imsety, Duamutef, and Hapi, the protectors of the organs stored in the canopic jars which bear their heads, these are what group of deities, the progeny of a certain falcon­headed god? ANSWER: Sons of Horus [or Children of Horus; accept logical equivalents] ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ 2. According to Plutarch, the pro­Spartan Kimon sent a delegation with a secret mission to this deity, though he died before its completion, prompting the priest to inform his men that Kimon was already with this deity. Pausanias says that Pindar offered a statue of this god carved by Kalamis in Thebes and Pythian IV includes Medea's prediction that "the daughter of Epaphus will one day be planted... amid the foundations" of this god in Libya. Every ten days a cult statue of this god was transported to Medinet Habu in western Thebes, where he had first created the world by fertilizing the world egg.

    Ta lektura, podobnie ak tysiące innych, est dostępna on-line na stronie wolnelektury.pl. Utwór opracowany został w ramach proektu Wolne Lektury przez fun- dacę Nowoczesna Polska. BOLESŁAW PRUS Faraon TOM III Czy prorocy podziemne świątyni sfinksa widzieli nowego władcę Egiptu, ak obozował pod piramidami, czy dali o nim znać do królewskiego pałacu, i — w aki uczynili to sposób? — nie wiadomo. Dość, że gdy Ramzes zbliżał się do przewozu, nadostonieszy arcykapłan Herhor kazał obudzić służbę pałacową, a gdy pan przepływał Nil, wszyscy kapłani, enerałowie¹ i dostonicy cywilni uż zgromadzili się w wielkie sali. Równo ze wschodem słońca Ramzes XIII na czele drobnego orszaku wechał w pała- cowy dziedziniec, gdzie służba upadła przed nim na twarz, a gwardia sprezentowała broń przy odgłosie trąb i bębnów. Powitawszy wosko, ego świątobliwość udał się do łazienki i wziął kąpiel przesyconą wonnościami. Następnie pozwolił uporządkować boskie włosy; lecz gdy yzer napokor- nie zapytał go: czy każe ogolić głowę i — zarost? — pan odrzekł: — Nie potrzeba. Nie estem kapłanem, tylko żołnierzem. Słowa te w chwilę późnie przeszły do sali audienconalne, w godzinę obiegły pa- łac, około południa rozniosły się po mieście Memfis, a nad wieczorem znane były we wszystkich świątyniach państwa, od Tami-n-hor² i Sabne-Chetam³ na północy do Su- unu⁴ i Pilak⁵ na południu. Na tę wieść nomarchowie, szlachta, wosko, lud i cudzoziemcy szaleli z radości, ale święty stan kapłański tym gorliwie obchodził żałobę po zmarłym faraonie. Wyszedłszy z kąpieli, ego świątobliwość przywdział krótką koszulę żołnierską w czar- ne i żółte pasy, na nią złoty napierśnik, na nogi sandały przywiązane rzemieniami, a na głowę płytki hełm z kolcem.
