| | Shu (Egyptian deity) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | In Egyptian mythology, Shu (meaning dryness and he who rises up) is one of the primordial gods, a personification of air, one of the Ennead of Heliopolis. | | | Due to the shared headdress, and Shu's position as the one who holds up the sky, Shu was later identified as Anhur, whose name could mean Sky Bearer, becoming Anhur-Shu. | | | Since Anhur was the more popular and significant deity, and, indeed, Shu was more a concept than a god, Shu was eventually absorbed completely into Anhur. |

| | Maybe she is also the atmosphere of the Underworld, but the most noteworthy thing about her might be that she, as the daughter of the sun god has direct access to him and is therefore called the "Eye of Ra". | | | There were no temples built to Nun, but this deity is made present in many shrines as the sacred lake which symbolizes the non-existence before creation. | | | That is to say that there was an ennead (or pesdjet) in the temple of Abydos consisting of seven deities and in the temple complex at Karnak there was as many as fifteen. |

| | This is because in the Dendera Zodiac, Gemini, the Twins, is represented by Shu and Tefnut. | | | She was widely-worshipped in Egypt, which because of the Egyptian habit of having local reinterpretations of the gods, means she is a complex goddess of many attributes and symbols. | | | After their 'birth', Shu and Tefnut became separated from their father and were lost in the Nun, which were the vast primeval waters that existed before the world was created. |

| | Hathor |
| | In the very late stages of Egyptian religion (over two millennia after Hathor had first appeared) she became almost totally absorbed into Isis (who acquired, aside from Hathor's headdress, the sistrum as well), resulting in frequent mistaken identity between the two. | | | Her cult flourished in Ta-Netjer ("Land of God" -- modern day Dendera) in Upper Egypt and her priests included both men and women, many of whom were dancers, singers, or musicians as the arts fell under Hathor's domain. | | | In some versions of this story it is Tefnut, not Hathor, who wanders away from Egypt, and Shu, not Thoth, who brings her back. |
