Horus was one of the most important deities in ancient Egyptian mythology, often depicted as a falcon or a man with a falcon's head. He was associated with the sky, the sun, and royal power.
As the son of the sun god Ra and the goddess Isis, Horus was believed to represent the rising sun and the king's divine right to rule. He was often depicted as battling the evil god Seth, who was associated with darkness, chaos, and the desert. Horus' victory over Seth symbolized the triumph of order and good over evil.
The Eye of Horus, a symbol of healing and protection, was often depicted on amulets and talismans. It was believed to have the power to ward off evil and to restore health.
