Description
One of the most significant aspects of Horus was his association with the pharaohs of Egypt. He was considered the divine protector of the reigning monarch, and the pharaoh was often seen as the living embodiment of Horus on Earth. The "Horus Name" of a pharaoh was an essential part of their titulary, signifying their divine right to rule and their connection to this powerful deity. Horus also played a central role in the mythological battle with his uncle, Set, over the throne of Egypt. This conflict symbolized the eternal struggle between order (Horus) and chaos (Set), reflecting the Egyptian belief in the importance of maintaining cosmic balance and harmony.
