Produktbeschreibung

Ra: The Sun God of Egypt
Ra, revered as the supreme deity in ancient Egyptian mythology, embodies the sun's life-giving and sustaining power. Ra's daily journey across the sky symbolizes creation, light, and order triumphing over chaos. Depicted with the head of a falcon and a sun disk, Ra sails through the sky in his solar barque during the day, bringing light and warmth to the world. By night, he travels through the underworld, fighting off chaos embodied by the serpent Apophis.
According to the myth, Ra was born from the primordial waters of Nun and emerged from a sacred lotus flower. He created the world and all living things through his spoken word. Ra's divine rule on earth was later challenged by his own children, Geb and Nut, and his influence began to wane as the reign of other gods like Osiris and Horus rose.
Throughout Egyptian history, Ra's identity merged with other deities, such as Amun, to form Amun-Ra, symbolizing his continued supremacy. The myth of Ra underscores the ancient Egyptians' belief in the cyclical nature of life, death, and rebirth, and Ra's eternal struggle against the forces of darkness and chaos.
