Thus creation of the god's began.
The white baboon created Atum- the sun god
Shu- god of air
Tennut - the god of moisture
Geb- the god of the Earth
Nut- the god of the sky
and a bunch of others but all we care about is the story of Atum and kids.
Amun is the ram headed god who molds mortals out of clay like a potter.
Hathor is the mother goddess with features like a cow. Was she a cow? Cant say for sure but I would speculate that the answer is yes.
Atum had this thing for Hathor together they had 3 kids
Seth- the god of chaos
Osiris- god of the underworld
Isis- goddess of the throne
Osiris has this thing for Isis luckily it is mutual. Osiris and Isis get married. Brother Husband anyone?
This upsets Seth whom gets jealous and wants Isis for himself. So he decides to kill his brother Osiris and dismember him.
This really upsets Isis. She decides to reassemble him with the help of Amun. Together they rebuild Osiris, god of the underworld and Bammo he is back. Isis and Osiris have a child to avenge the actions of Seth. They give birth to Horus, Falcon god and he does exactly what he was supposed to do, avenge his father. Seth is slain and goes to the underworld where he will face his final judgement by the jackal headed god Annubus.
How does Annubus decide who is eaten by monsters, dismembered and those who deserve to go before Osiris god of the underworld? He weighs your heart. If your heart is lighter than a feather you may enter the underworld. But.... if it is heavier than the weight of a feather than the monsters get to feed on your flesh and rip you to shreds.
This is part of the beginning of Egypt.
