Ammit is the Devourer. He crosses the underworld eating souls of the wicked whose hearts are heavier than the feather of truth. Ammit has the nose of a crocodile, the body of a lion and the bottom of a hippo. These are the deadliest animals known to Egyptians.
HORUS
Horus was the God of the sky and the God of war. He was the son of Isis and Osiris and is one of the most famous ancient Egyptian Gods.
Horus lost his eye after fighting his uncle, Set and became the King of Egypt. Horus was worshipped all over Egypt and represented all the Falcon Gods. He appeared as a Falcon headed man.
His symbols are the Eye of Horus and a hawk.
The eye of Horus is an ancient Egyptian symbol of protection and good health.
The Pharaohs of Egypt ruling at any time saw themselves in the image of Horus. When the Pharaoh died, that Pharaoh became Osiris, the God of the dead and Father of Horus. Through the King, Horus watched over the people of Egypt.
Hello Miss Drury??‍?
here are my facts about my god.
The most important god of all was Ra he was the sun god. people believed that he was swallowed each evening by the sky goddess Nut. During the night he travelled to the underworld and was born again each morning.
I have a book about Ancient Egypt. I read some interesting things.
For example the base of some pyramids is bigger than ten football pitches!
The Egyptian god that I am interested in is Anubis. He was the protector of the dead. He is shown as a jackal-headed man and he conducted the dead to the hall of judgement.
I have learnt about Sekhmet who was the Goddess of War and Healing. Sekhmet was the daughter of Ra. I like her because she looks like a lioness and is known for her fierce character. She is also known as the Powerful One who could destroy the enemies of her friends.

My mum will post my facts and picture.
Osiris is the God of the underworld. He took some the buried people out of the underworld so then they were alive longer.
Great work Layla!
