Synopsis "Horus in the Pyramid Texts"

In a group of five pyramids at Sakkara, the tombs of Egypt's Fifth- and Sixth-Dynasty pharaohs, who ruled from about 2650 to 2475 B. C, is preserved as the largest body of inscriptions known anywhere from that remote age. These mortuary and religious texts not only present through their allusions an invaluable commentary on early Egyptian civilization, but they reveal the earliest discernible phases of man's thoughts on the great problems of cosmic origin and human destiny. Here lie the occurrences of divine names and epithets. Differentiation of independent deities from the mass proved a rather arbitrary matter. Not only do various types of supernatural beings appear, from the great. Cosmic powers down to representative of the animal and vegetable world geographic incarnations, and even inanimate objects. These texts shed light on The most detailed myth traceable is that which records how Horus was born to Isis in Khemmis, fought with Set in his young manhood, and after recovering his eye? which Set. had taken and swallowed, bestowed it upon his father Osiris. The judicial proceedings that ensued at Heliopolis seem to have been a trial of Horus himself or, again, concerned the eye. They resulted in any case in the defeat of Set.
