Large Amun-Ra Egyptian Statue
Amun-Ra, God of Kings and King of Gods. The oldest and longest venerated ruler of ancient Egypt, Amun, meaning “hidden” and Ra meaning “light” translates to "hidden light". The sacred creature of Amun is the ram with curved horns. Pharaohs repeatedly called themselves “Merry-Amun” or Beloved of Amun. Also, since the ruler was “Son of Ra” it followed that Amun was father of the Monarch. As God of the Theban capital, Amun attained the position of supreme state God in the new kingdom, and as Amun-Ra was identified with the Sun God. Lastly, the God “He who abides in all things”, was imagined as the soul (Ba) of all phenomena. As a god, he carries an ankh, the sign of life in one hand while the other, against his chest, holds a scimitar, a symbol of power.

Large Ra-Harakti Egyptian Statue
Harakhte, whose name meant “Horus of the Horizon”, and who was also called “Horus of the Two Horizons”, was the form which Horus took when his early characteristics as a god of light were emphasized. He was identified with Ra as he made his daily journey from the eastern to the western horizon, and especially with his Khepri and Atum aspects. The roles of the two gods as solar and as royal deities became inextricably mixed, and under their combined authority Ra-Harakhte held sway over all Egypt. He was represented as a falcon or a falcon-headed man wearing the solar disk and triple crown or the uraeus and the atef crown.
