Egyptian god Horus Falcon Museum Bust Sculpture Statue
Item No. 3327S
Reproduction after Museum Original
In Egyptian mythology, Horus was the Divine Child of Osiris and Isis. As the Incarnate God, his
roles were numerous. He united the cosmic principles of male and female. He acted as the
uniting force between Upper and Lower Egypt. He interceded on behalf of the King to the Gods and
as a living God, it is Horus who bestowed supreme power and divine kingship to a Pharaoh. From
his union with Isis he has four sons, guardians of the four Canopic Jars that contain the visceras
of the embalmed deceased. Horus's most important cult centers were at Edfu, where the God was
venerated in the image of the winged disk, at Kom Ombo, where as Son of Ra he bore the name
Haroeris, and at Heliopolis where he was regarded as the God of the Morning Sun under the
name of Ra-Harakhty
