Ancient Egypt

Taweret is a fascinating figure from ancient Egyptian mythology. She was a goddess associated with childbirth, fertility, and protection. She was called: "Lady of Heaven", "Mistress of Pure Water", and "Lady of the Birth House" Throughout the history of Egypt, female hippopotamus was revered as she studiously protect her young from harm. So Egyptians called her Taweret or Taurt ("GREAT ONE") They frequently depicted her as a female hippopotamus holding the hieroglyphic sign "Sa" "protection" No house or temple was void of an image, a statue, or a Protective amulet of Taweret. Although King Akhenaten in the 18th dynasty proscribed the worship of many traditional gods, Taweret's survival in the artistic corpus found at the Aten's capital demonstrates her overwhelming significance in Egyptian daily life. -- Hymn to Taweret the Goddess of Mothers and Children | Ancient Egyptian Gods https://youtu.be/yVNAWPNR-VI -- My channel "Atum" on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4GrfTi1FYF87_wJnPxaSyA My email miladsidky1969@gmail.com Donation via PayPal if you see my content worth watching https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/miladsidkyatum -- Credits MUSIC Eastminster by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Source: http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/index.html?isrc=USUAN1100719 Artist: http://incompetech.com/ -- Photos and videos https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:1514_Estela_de_Hy_(52585343263).jpg Museo Egizio, CC BY 2.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Estatuilla_de_Taweret,_Btitish_Museum.jpg Jl FilpoC, CC BY-SA 4.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Flickr_-_schmuela_-_Taweret.jpg Karen Green, CC BY-SA 2.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:KV17,_the_tomb_of_Pharaoh_Seti_I_of_the_of_the_burial_chamber,_Nineteenth_Dynasty,_astronomical_vaulted_ceiling_Valley_of_the_Kings,_Egypt_(49867418546).jpg Carole Raddato from Frankfurt, Germany, CC BY-SA 2.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Statuette_of_Taweret_dedicated_by_the_draughtsman_Parahotep,_wood_-_Museo_Egizio_Turin_C_526_p01.jpg Museo Egizio, CC BY 4.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Stela_dedicated_to_a_child-god_(Harpocrates,_Khonsu,_or_Nefertum)_and_the_hippopotamus-goddess_Taweret,_limestone_-_Museo_Egizio_Turin_C_1669_p01.jpg Museo Egizio, CC BY 4.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Tawaret_figurine_(Boston_MFA).jpg Madman2001, CC BY-SA 3.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Taweret-AF_2346-IMG_8032-black.jpg Louvre Museum, CC BY-SA 2.0 FR https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/fr/deed.en --

He was also considered to be the god of fine arts and craftsmen. It was also considered that Ptah manifested himself in the Apis bull who was buried at Saqqara.

Hor, Har, or Heru, in ancient Egyptian religion, is a god in the form of a falcon, or a man with a falcon head known today with the name, Horus. His name means "The Distant One", or the "One Who is Above". Horus had different titles and epithets: Harsiesis (Har-si-Ese, “Horus, Son of Isis”), Harpocrates (Har-pe-khrad, “Horus the Child”), Harakhte (“Horus of the Horizon,” Haroeris (Harwer, “Horus the Elder”). According to the Osiris Myth, Horus was born miraculously after Goddess Isis retrieved all the dismembered body parts of her murdered husband Osiris. Horus had to fight Set, the murderer of his father, to restore the order and sovereignty of Egypt. In the fight, Horus’s left eye (representing the moon) was damaged and was healed by the god Thoth. The figure of the restored eye (the wedjat eye) became a powerful amulet for healing and good luck. It was believed that Horus had four Sons represented in Canopic Jars. They were made to contain the internal organs removed from the body during the mummification process. The four sons were believed to protect these organs. The jackal-headed Duamutef protected the stomach; the falcon-headed Qebehsenuef, the intestines; the baboon-headed Hapi, the lungs; and human-headed Imsety, the liver. Egyptians believed that the reigning king was a manifestation of Horus. So the king was typically depicted with a hovering form of Horus above his head. -- My channel "Atum" on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4GrfTi1FYF87_wJnPxaSyA My email miladsidky1969@gmail.com Donation via PayPal if you see my content worth watching https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/miladsidkyatum -- Credits MUSIC Mayan Ritual - Jimena Contreras -- Cylinder Seven by Chris Zabriskie is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Source: http://chriszabriskie.com/cylinders/ Artist: http://chriszabriskie.com/ --- Photos and videos https://pixabay.com/illustrations/sunset-ocean-nature-sea-landscape-2126686/ https://pixabay.com/videos/mystery-fog-fear-halloween-dark-38199/ https://pixabay.com/vectors/gold-frame-brown-background-7434303/ https://pixabay.com/photos/moon-sky-night-cloudy-moonlight-142977/ -- Credits to be included https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:F4155_Louvre_offrande_a_Osiris_par_le_portier_du_temple_Amon_Irethorrou_N3387_rwk.jpg Mbzt, CC BY-SA 4.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:%D9%83%D8%B4%D9%83_%D8%AA%D8%B1%D8%A7%D8%AC%D8%A7%D9%86.jpg Ahmed karmy, CC BY-SA 4.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Stele_egizia_con_horo_su_coccodrilli,_IV_secolo_ac.,_dall%27area_dell%27ospedale_di_crotone,_01.jpg Sailko, CC BY-SA 4.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Flickr_-_archer10_(Dennis)_-_Egypt-4B-033.jpg Dennis Jarvis from Halifax, Canada, CC BY-SA 2.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Seth_%2B_horus.jpg Soutekh67, CC BY-SA 4.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Amulet_depicting_the_gods_Isis,_Horus_and_Nephthys,_faience_-_Museo_Egizio_Turin_C_759_p01.jpg Museo Egizio, CC BY 4.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Jewel_Osiris_family-E_6204-IMG_0641-black.jpg Louvre Museum, CC BY-SA 2.0 FR https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/fr/deed.en https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:StatueOfHoremhebAndTheGodHorus_KunsthistorischesMuseum_Nov13-10.jpg Captmondo, CC BY-SA 3.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0 --

Bastet or Bast (The Cat Goddess) is a feline-headed or feline-bodied deity in Egyptian religion. She was an ancient deity whose ferocious nature was ameliorated after the domestication of the cat around 1500 BCE. She is the daughter of Re, the sun god, and her titles are: The Lady of Flame, and The Eye of Ra. Originally she was viewed as the protector goddess of Egypt. In the Middle Kingdom, the domestic cat appeared as Bastet’s sacred animal and after the New Kingdom she was represented as a woman with a cat’s head, carrying an ancient percussion instrument called sistrum in her right hand; an aegis, or breastplate in her left hand; and a small bag over her left arm. She wears an elaborately ornamented dress. Her cult was carried to Italy by the Romans, and traces have been found in Rome, Ostia, Nemi, and Pompeii. Bastet was so popular that people from all cultures kept small figures of cats as amulets. I hope this collection of artworks housed in Egypt and world museums will be a source of your tranquility and solace. -- My channel "Atum" on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4GrfTi1FYF87_wJnPxaSyA My email miladsidky1969@gmail.com Donation via PayPal if you see my content worth watching https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/miladsidkyatum -- CREDITS MUSIC Grass - Silent Partner -- Photos and vids https://pixabay.com/illustrations/eye-of-horus-eye-of-ra-egypt-gold-6078479/ https://pixabay.com/videos/mystery-fog-fear-halloween-dark-38199/ https://pixabay.com/videos/particles-stars-twinkling-movement-323/ https://pixabay.com/photos/bastet-cat-egypt-cat-sculpture-3201562/ https://pixabay.com/photos/cute-cats-kittens-animals-mammals-3273789/ https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Amuleto_2018-10-032009-19-3420(A2CRadius32CSmoothing2).tif Museo Egizio, CC BY 2.5 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.5 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Bastet_as_cat_headed_woman-AF_9684-IMG_0554-white.jpg Rama, CC BY-SA 3.0 FR https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/fr/deed.en https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Bastet_dame_katzenkopf.jpg Kotofeij K.

Tutankhamun's treasures are among the most iconic artifacts of Ancient Egypt. When Howard Carter discovered his tomb in 1922, it was virtually intact, providing an unparalleled glimpse into the wealth and artistry of the New Kingdom period. Perhaps the most famous of all the treasures is Tutankhamun's gold funerary mask. It is an exquisite piece of craftsmanship, made of solid gold inlaid with lapis lazuli, turquoise, and other precious stones. It covers the pharaoh's mummy and is adorned with symbolic imagery. The pharaoh's golden throne, adorned with scenes of his wife, Ankhesenamun, was another significant find. It symbolizes his royal status and depicts him and his queen in various ceremonies. Inside Tutankhamun's tomb, Carter discovered a canopic shrine containing four alabaster canopic jars, each holding the preserved internal organs of the young king. The shrine is intricately decorated with scenes from Egyptian mythology. Tutankhamun was buried in a series of coffins, each nestled inside the other. The innermost coffin is made of solid gold and depicts the pharaoh as Osiris, the god of the afterlife. Among the treasures were several statues of the pharaoh, including a life-sized statue found near the entrance of the tomb. These statues served both a religious and a symbolic purpose, ensuring the king's immortality in the afterlife.

An amulet is anything worn or carried by a person for protection or good luck. There were several Ancient Egyptian words for amulets, most notably 'Sa' and 'Wedjau', which were associated with protection, well-being, and prosperity. In ancient Egypt, amulets were often small figures of the gods featuring the most well-liked deities. Often, they were inlaid in other types of jewelry or hung on a thread around the neck. Favorites included Amun, Isis, Hathor, Bes, Min, Taweret, and other Gods and Goddesses. Newborns were adorned with amulets to keep them safe and healthy, and parents placed amulets around their children's necks to ward off evil spirits and protect them from scorpions, snakes, and crocodiles. Amulets were thought to possess a variety of abilities. Some amulets have divine power and served only as protection. For example, Bastet, the cat Goddess, would defend you if you wore a little cat charm around your neck. An amulet of the lion-headed Goddess Sekhmet would make you bold, a bull amulet of the God Apis would give you strength, and an amulet of Thoth would aid you in gaining wisdom. -- My channel "Atum" on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4GrfTi1FYF87_wJnPxaSyA My email miladsidky1969@gmail.com Donation via PayPal if you see my content worth watching https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/miladsidkyatum -- Credits MUSIC Drums of the Deep by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Source: http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/index.html?isrc=USUAN1400021 Artist: http://incompetech.com/ -- Ghost Story by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Source: http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/index.html?isrc=USUAN1300034 Artist: http://incompetech.com/ -- https://pixabay.com/videos/mystery-fog-fear-halloween-dark-38199/ https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:D%C3%A9tail_du_pectoral_de_la_statue_de_I%C3%A2hmessaneith_55.jpg https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Magical_Stela_(Cippus_of_Horus)_MET_DP319007.jpg https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Amuleto_raffigurante_il_dio_Horus_2019-08-0217-55-10(A,Radius6,Smoothing3).tif Museo Egizio, CC BY 2.5 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.5 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Amulet_depicting_the_god_Harpocrates,_faience_-_Museo_Egizio_Turin_C_417_p01.jpg Museo Egizio, CC BY 4.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Amulet_of_Seth-E_7715-IMG_2882-gradient.jpg Louvre Museum, CC BY-SA 2.0 FR https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/fr/deed.en https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Heryshaf_as_ram_sitted_on_nenufar-E_11074-IMG_8145-gradient.jpg Louvre Museum, CC BY-SA 2.0 FR https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/fr/deed.en https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Arte_egizia,_stele_di_horus_sui_coccodrilli,_bassa_epoca_(da_collez._cardinale_Giuseppe_Spinelli).JPG I, Sailko, CC BY-SA 3.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Aegis_of_Neith-H1550-IMG_0172.jpg Photograph by Rama, Wikimedia Commons, Cc-by-sa-2.0-fr, CC BY-SA 2.0 FR https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/fr/deed.en https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Bronze_Aegis_of_Isis._She_wears_a_tripartite_wig_with_12_uraeus_serpents._From_Saqqara,_H5-228,_Egypt._Ptolemaic_period,_30th_Dynasty._The_Petrie_Museum_of_Egyptian_Archaeology,_London.jpg Osama Shukir Muhammed Amin FRCP(Glasg), CC BY-SA 4.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0

The Ancient Egyptians believed that amulets have divine or magical powers such as: - the ability to protect against a specific type of danger, - the ability to cure disease, - or the ability to give preternatural strength to the wearer. Amulets were made in the shape of gods, animals, plants, and Hieroglyphic symbols. They were made of gold, bronze, crystals, glass, stones, and other materials. Amulets were often inscribed with a spell, magic incantation or symbol that protects the wearer against evil or provides aid and magical benefits. A large variety of amulets were placed on the mummy body and scattered among the wrappings to ensure the safety of the body and any easy passage into the Afterlife. Several of the spells in the Book of the Dead were intended to be spoken over specific amulets, which were then placed in particular places on the body of the deceased. Amulets were not only a representation and an incarnation of ancient Egyptian religion, but an apparent witness to the great Egyptian art as well. -- My channel "Atum" on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4GrfTi1FYF87_wJnPxaSyA My email miladsidky1969@gmail.com Donation via PayPal if you see my content worth watching https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/miladsidkyatum -- Credits MUSIC Drums of the Deep by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Source: http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/index.html?isrc=USUAN1400021 Artist: http://incompetech.com/ -- Ghost Story by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Source: http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/index.html?isrc=USUAN1300034 Artist: http://incompetech.com/ -- https://pixabay.com/videos/mystery-fog-fear-halloween-dark-38199/ https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Amuleto_raffigurante_il_cuore_1_2019-08-0219-39-07(A,Radius6,Smoothing3).tif Museo Egizio, CC BY 4.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Amuleto_raffigurante_un_cobra_Cat.963-hel08B8854rt.tif Museo Egizio, CC BY 2.5 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.5 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Amuleto_raffigurante_un_falco_2019-07-3017-32-31(A,Radius6,Smoothing3).tif Museo Egizio, CC BY 2.5 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.5 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Cat_amulet-E_10661-IMG_9288-gradient.jpg Rama, CC BY-SA 3.0 FR https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0/fr/deed.en https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Khaemwaset%27s_tomb_treasure_(Serapeum).jpg Louvre Museum, CC BY 2.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/2.0 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Pectoral-E_69-IMG_2498-white.jpg Louvre Museum, CC BY-SA 2.0 FR https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/2.0/fr/deed.en https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Shabti-box,_wood_-_Museo_Egizio_Turin_C_2441_p01.jpg Museo Egizio, CC BY 4.0 https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0 --

Ancient Egyptian art is renowned for its distinctive style, symbolism, and longevity. Here are some key features and aspects of Egyptian art: - Symbolism and Representation: Egyptian art was highly symbolic and often depicted gods, pharaohs, and important events. It aimed to convey eternal truths rather than realistic portrayal. representation. - Hierarchical Scale: Important figures, such as pharaohs or gods, were often depicted larger than others to denote their significance and power. This hierarchical scale was a common feature in Egyptian art. - Material and Techniques: Egyptians used various materials for their art, including stone, wood, metals, and pottery. They were skilled in carving reliefs and sculptures, as well as painting on walls, papyrus scrolls, and other surfaces. The use of vibrant colors, especially in wall paintings, was characteristic of Egyptian art. - Subjects and Themes: Egyptian art predominantly focused on religious and funerary themes. Scenes from daily life, such as farming, hunting, and domestic activities, were also common. Mythological narratives, particularly those involving the journey of the soul after death, were frequently depicted in tombs and temples. - Funerary Art and Tombs: Much of the surviving Egyptian art comes from tombs and burial sites. These artworks served both practical and religious purposes, providing provisions and protection for the deceased in the afterlife, as well as conveying religious beliefs about death and the afterlife. - Tomb Paintings: Wall paintings in tombs, such as those in the Valley of the Kings and the tombs of nobles, are famous for their elaborate scenes depicting the journey of the deceased through the afterlife, including encounters with gods, judgment scenes, and offerings to sustain the soul. - Statuary: Egyptian statues were often static and idealized representations of the subject, emphasizing permanence and divine attributes. The famous Great Sphinx and colossal statues of pharaohs, such as the statues of Ramses II at Abu Simbel, are prime examples of Egyptian statuary. - Continuity and Tradition: Egyptian art maintained a remarkable continuity of style and themes over thousands of years, with changes occurring gradually and within a traditional framework. This stability was closely tied to the religious and cultural beliefs of ancient Egyptian society. Overall, ancient Egyptian art is not only visually striking but also offers valuable insights into the religious beliefs, social structures, and cultural values of one of the world's oldest civilizations. -- My channel "Atum" on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC4GrfTi1FYF87_wJnPxaSyA My email miladsidky1969@gmail.com Donation via PayPal if you see my content worth watching https://www.paypal.com/paypalme/miladsidkyatum -- CREDITS MUSIC Desert Caravan - Aaron Kenny Restless Natives - Doug Maxwell_Media Right Productions Drums of the Deep by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Source: http://incompetech.com/music/royalty-free/index.html?isrc=USUAN1400021 Artist: http://incompetech.com/ -- Photos and vids https://pixabay.com/photos/palette-paints-oil-painting-1482678/ https://pixabay.com/illustrations/wave-painting-drawing-artistic-81840/ https://pixabay.com/videos/black-abstract-background-lines-18327/ https://pixabay.com/illustrations/tree-pen-universe-write-stars-5831258/ -- Ancient Egyptian Artworks included: Nebamun Hunting Fowl in the Marshes https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:TombofNebamun-2.jpg The beautiful Egyptian Woman https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Tomb_of_Nakht_(3).jpg The Blind harper and the beautiful ladies Musicians and dancing girls, and wine. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Nebamun_tomb_fresco_dancers_and_musicians.png Painting of Khai-Inherkha and wife enjoying music.
