Egyptian Tour Guide

Is it accurate in any way lol. I'll take your word that you are an Egyptian guide

I kinda went a deep rabbit of Egyptian mythology because of this Manhwa and the answer is: Sorta... Not really and sorta complicated because Egyptian myths are inconsistent because of cults and culture
Here the list the manhwa didn't get (sorry if is long)
•Annubis already a god when Horus around even aided Horus through out his youth ( there some depands if his Seth son or Ra) he even attack Seth when transform to spotless leopard to attack Osiris with hot iron rode henceforth why leopard have strip and he wear pelt as reminder for Seth
•There several key story in Horus that never mentioned (or reference) such the seven giant scorpions who aid Isis while she raise Horus and the goddess Neith who only reference here
•Seth has several children (again depends) such as Wepwawat the wolf god of war and death, Tawaret the Hippo/lion goddess of fertility and protection (some say that also his consort), and his son the crocodile demon Maga, and he several consort besides Nephthys and even fathered different children from different mother as well he even Fathered Sobek the crocodile god of war and the Nile (Sobek even fused with Horus called Sobek-Horus)
•Also Egyptian practice polygamy even the title "The great wife" which Pharaoh favorite wife again this is why Seth have several consort same goes for Osiris
•There close to zero mythical creature of Egyptian here such as the Sha other title "set of animals" which Seth represent and Serpopard, and most important Ammit, which is Annubis close with and yes there is the Ba but that not mythical animal that is generally what several part their of their soul look like
•Also no Apep (confirm by the author) which is the giant snake Seth always fight with
•Also Seth and Ra are generally close. That there some account claim Ra adopt Seth after the trial. Also Osiris close with Annubis even adopting him after the trial (it's dependable if Annubis is his son)
•Hathor magical healing milk that help Horus injured eyes (yes that true)
•Also no silver bones which is all except few Egyptian gods have
•Also Egyptian ascented doesn't mean they reborn without their old memories. Egyptian make big deal their lives record which also the few reasons why they're don't like grave robber
•Also Cavaran here is sorta not like that? Don't get me wrong the thing the manhwa say is true but they're mostly traveler and merchants. They only raided village when they're desperate and they their own woman and children to protect and their job is dangerous because people than to hunt them for their loot. And their not purely Egyptian either they're from Canaanites and they introduced many stuff to Egypt (even their iconic sword the Khopesh) the main reason they worship Seth is because they scared of him because their in his domain
•Also the Cavaran aren't Seth main follower either. That title goes to Hyksos (also descended from Canaanites) that conquered lower Egypt for 100 years and introducing Egyptian many things including the chariot. And the Main reason they worship Seth because he resemble Ba'al the Canaanites god because they're similar this also why Seth gain the title "God of Foreign" he even gain two wive because of this who both war goddess Called "Anat and Astarte"
•Also forgot mention this in the Ascented part Egyptian gods reborn all the time Ra and Horus is literally strongest. Horus because all Pharaoh are Horus recronation and Ra every sunset

Also theirs nothing wrong not adding this just in case

Thanks for writing this I've been on the subject fo hours

i appreciate ur dedication on this thanks for sharing!

Also I forget to add this
•Despite this Manhwa claim Thoth has daughter with Ma'at called "Seshat" (also his consort sometimes and yes Manhwa did reference it I think?) who is goddess of Writing and Measurements aswell Wisdom who invented writing and her father introducing it to human. He also have son with Seshat called "Hornub" who is "The Golden Horus"
•Also Serket (sometimes Horus consort) the Scorpions goddess of poison and healing is the mother of seven scorpions. She even gain the title of protection of children because of that
•Also Thoth did not play with Ra it was Khonshu (yes the one in Moonknight) his father Amun who follower have war with Hyksos and won. Also Amun fused Ra and called Amun-Ra
•Also forget to add why the Hyksos thought Ba'al resemble Seth. It because Ba'al is the god of storm and war like Seth. It also their word for Lord
•Anat is Canaanites/Egyptian god and the sister-wife of Ba'al and three daughters together called Pidray, Tallay, Arsay. As for Astarte is Canaanites/Phoenician she than pair with Anat
•Forget Why Neith is important in "The Contendings of Horus and Seth" (is what the manhwa based on). Is because she close with Seth henceforth why he Fathered Sobek (Neith his mother) but later aid Horus after the whole incident
•Also Ra did not stop Nut and Geb because what this Manhwa claim. Granted because of Egyptian Pharaoh or cult than to not write down or they change it. The closet we get is Ra heard a prophecy that Nut and Geb kids will change Egypt forever (granted they're were sorta right)
•Also Ra give Osiris the throne because he was getting old and now work with the sun boat

Also there two type of ways of how Egyptian gods worship. The higher class such as Royal one worship only gods with higher class and those gods are Osiris or Horus, while household deity only worship all class such as Bes and Serket aswell Tawaret

For more Fun Fact that not important here
•Osiris worshiper claim he invented beer making associate with beer
•Nephthys is Goddess of beer (which also funny there already Goddess of beer called Tjenenyet) and mourning, death, river and the night (there lot of them)
•There male God called Ash. His is the god of oasis and wine he than to be associated with Seth, and this where people thought his Seth consort and thought Seth is bisexual. But reality we don't have information on him and Seth besides relics of old jar wine have a Writing "This wine blessed by Ash" but doesn't mean it not true
•Ancient Egyptian have 2,000 gods that majority only have name and have no idea what they gods of. So... Good luck out there

I want to address this. There nothing wrong for Author not to add this and make her own take because Egyptian mythology kinda messy because of the Roman and Pharaoh those period. Is not like Greek and Norse mythology (Norse is already hard because their records is after them becoming Christian) it also her story make and I kinda understand her position

I forget this too this will the last time
•Khumn (yes the lamp god here) is widely considered Sobek Father and again he father with Neith the god Heka personification of magic himself. He also created human and yes the manhwa is right. That he than associated with Isis (Idk if that sorta degree) and Heka himself help Osiris from Seth
•For Sobek himself is dangerous considered extremely violent and sexual violence (He represent the violence of the Nile and the Crocodile) but he protect innocent children
•Also if you curious who really the Supreme God (this is dependable again) Is "Amun-Ra"

This will be the last time I swear
•Seth is conically shape shifter even one point his mural depicted him as falcon head and I heard this one few reason why the gods don't want to mess with him
•Also Seth is not the only God of Chaos there several God of Chaos. Sobek is even consider God of Chaos, even Apep who literally purely chaos themselves, and Nun who created all the Gods is called "The Primordial Ocean of Chaos"

Noo it's okayyy keep going super insightful and if anyone gets annoyed by this they can just silence it so

Yeah, please continue.❣

And please tell me, where you find this contain and points l love to know. Please

What I meant is. I may or may not continued because that what I can share. But Iuckily I remember more
•I made few error with Heka his the son of Khumn. I think my wording didn't sound like. He also associated with Isis because they both associated with magic. His also (some sources) Apep brother
•Nephthys is become the goddess of mourning because she stick Seth after the trial. Horus warn her this is dangerous but she didn't care. This cause Egyptian always depict them together. Also during Osiris dismemberment her and Isis hugging together and cry, causing the title "The Mourning Sister"
•Also Egyptian gods have golden skin. But what I understand it only appear when they're being skinned. Also I don't know if they bleed only one account when was Seth injured and bleeding in his animal form not other gods have mention that except Shezmu Vulture/Lion god of protection and violence where he bleed wine
•I didn't mention this properly, what I meant was "Those gods are Osiris and Horus" what I mean was there are other gods worship only by the High Class Osiris and Horus are one of them. Again sorry, same goes for household Gods
•More informed about the Caravan. Yes they have slave but only transform them and sold them (primary African slaves), and they rarely raided villages. The real people treated the slave woman and children like that are Pharaoh and higher class who I argued are treated them worst than it sounds and they're the one raided without mercy. Also the Pharaoh protect Caravan because they're part of Ma'at balance

There more
• the God of architecture and Craftman (also reference here his the one with blue cup and blue skin during the trial) Ptah is "The Harer God" meaning he associated with ears and thanks to that, his slabs contain lots of ear drawing (this is just funny to me)
•Forget to mention this. The gods with the higher Class are the one with temple (Ptah is one of them). The household Gods doesn't
•More about Sekhment she from Ra left eye when humanity no longer worship Ra causing him to release Sekhment to killed them. This cause Sekhment nearly extinct humanity causing Ra (He did ask but Sekhment refuse) stopping her by mixing wine with human blood and left them for her to find. Sekhment found them (there were lot of jar of wine btw) and get blackout drunk. Ra used his power to either alter or separate Sekhment to either Bastet (this also the symbolize domestication of cat) or Hathor this cause Sekhment no longer a angry violent god and just her used her power for good
•Ra other eye is either a god or symbol called Wadjet who is snake who is symbolize protection and despite her look she actually a girl. She also associated the green stick where the other gods hold
•Also another key story is the copra Isis created from Ra saliva (she get it from the sun boat Ra sleep a lot there causing him to drool) and dirt. She than commanded the copra to bite Ra to get this ren (part of soul where the identity and name is) she did this to that Horus secured for the throne. There other version she did it to get more power not for Horus

YouTube and article (please don't ask me for link. It a mess)
But if you want the real source there three type of source of this
•"The Pyramid Text" from the Old Kingdom c. 2700–2200 BC where is written in the walls of the pyramid
•"The Coffin text" a vast collection of ancient Egyptian funerary spells, rituals, and maps painted on coffins are from the Middle Kingdom c. 2130–1630 BCE
•"Book of the dead" incient Egyptian collection of mortuary texts made up of spells or magic formulas, placed in tombs and believed to protect and aid the deceased in the hereafter. Also basically where tons of the myth come from, and also from the New Kingdom c. 1570 – c. 1069 BC
•There also Plutarch version of Egyptian myth. His Greek writer whose the one who made Annubis Osiris blood son. When The Papyrus Jumilhac never mentioned that. Please knowledge just Plutarch written could be or could be not true but sadly he one of the few surviving Egyptian myths

Also YouTubers called @MelissainDeNile who does deep dive not just myth but artifact too aswell @ancientsitesgirl

Thank you so much ❣

There also more I just want to share
•Anubis is actually older than Seth and Osiris been around the Old Kingdom and was primary god of dead until the Osiris cult overshadow them and Osiris become the King of the dead. It also few the main reason why some say his the son of Ra
•Ptah and Bastet are married in myth and they produce two son. One is Nefertem (the manhwa Osiris mention him) lion/normal head perfume God even had mural where his father and Sekhment (few connection of her and Bastet seen) depict together, and another lion headed God Maahes always depict with dual sword his the god of war and protection
•Another God considered the oldest deity of Egyptian is Min (don't search his images up in public. Trust me you will thank me later) God of Fertility. It not really sexual pressure it more of agriculture and that why his symbols is lettuce. The mean reason I mentioned him his also said to Horus father before Osiris, and the husband of Isis. He also fused with Horus called "Min-Horus" and he also fused with Amun called "Min-Amun"
•Also Ptah and Osiris fused together with another called Sokar "Ptah-Seker-Osiris". Also Sokar is a falcon headed God of resurrected dead. His also in charge of the Fifth Kingdom of Night, which is called "Hidden", and is tasked with punishing the souls of evildoers by throwing them into a boiling lake

I forget to mention this
•The beer thing with Osiris is also the few reasons he Dionysus during the time roman conquered Egypt
•I forget what kind of god of Neith. She the god of Hunting, War, Pychochomp, (basically grimreapper same goes with Nephthys) she and Anubis are called Wepwawet opener of the Ways(this is correct spelling sorry) and yes is the same spelling of the god Wepwawet
We don't know if there a connection between them all and why is spell like that. She was Artemis during time and she also (some account) mother of Ra
•Horus has plenty of son here the list
°Ihy the god of Childhood Innocent, Music, and Grain his mother is Hathor
°Harsomtus his name meaning "Horus who unites the two lands" his mother is Hathor or his a lotus child. In the new Kingdom his Amun son. I have idea what his godhood is? But what I can find his also the god of the sun
°Montu the falcon/bull headed God of War, Straight. His fused with Ra called "Montu-Ra" and he was Ares in roman. I don't know if his Horus kin but his epithet is literally called "Horus of the Strong Arm"
•Thoth or the sun disks where Thoth wear. This was born during the salad incident

This is either Hathor, Serket,Isis and Seth kin depending which source ( Fun Fact this is also Horus the elder kin with Isis) but they also come from the lotus
The Four son of Horus are the gods represent the canopic jar during mummification and they also protected Osiris in duat (even sit front of him in mural) from danger
*Imsety name meaning "The kindly one" or 'The dill one" is the human headed jar and protected the liver. The Egyptian believe the liver hold you emotion basically function like a brain (Fun Fact the Egyptian didn't know the brain is important they just melt and throw it away). His guardian or protecter is Isis and his cardinal direction is South
*Qebehsenuef name meaning "He who refresh his brother'' he a falcon headed jar, he protected the intestines. The Egyptian believe the intestines the poisonous part of your body and that is why Serket is his protector or guardian. His cardinal direction is West
•Hapi (yes the same spelling another Egyptian god Hapi) I have no idea what is his name mean but his considered Horus favorite son, his the Baboon headed jar and his associate with Thoth. He protected the lungs where is vital during the afterlife. His guardian or protecter is Nephthys and his cardinal direction North
*Duamutef his name mean "He who adore his mother" or "He who worship his mother" he the Jackel headed jar like Anubis. He protected the stomach, I be honest I have no idea what the stomach do. His guardian or protecter is Neith and I think he associated with fire because Neith get him a flaming sword but I can't confirm that is all true (Neith guardian is true, the sword part is not sure). His cardinal direction East
