Seth (center)

Seth, also known as Set, and classically known as Sutekh was an Isu revered as the ancient Egyptian god of the desert, storms, disorder, and violence.

Biography

In legend, Seth was the brother of Osiris and Isis. He married Nephthys and fathered the mummification god of the dead, Anubis. Seth was also one of Ra's protectors who aided him in his battles against the Serpent of Chaos, Apep.

The enclosed content is of ambiguous canonicity.
Seth later killed and dismembered Osiris, resulting in Isis using the Ankh to resurrected him for one night, long enough to conceive his son and heir Horus. Horus would then pursue a path of vengeance, with their conflicts forming the key Osiris myth central to Ancient Egyptian mythology.

Legacy and influence

One of the Isu messengers was called 'Seth Anath messenger'.

By the 1st century BCE, a tomb was built in the Desheret Desert, named after him and Anat. The tomb itself was connected to an Isu vault, Qeneb.too Kah'Aiye.

The Hidden One Bayek of Siwa would later encounter an individual named Sutekh during his travels to the city of Thebes. It can be assumed he was named after the classical Egyptological name of Seth, particularly as Sutekh was the name given by his ancestor, Rameses II, during the peace treaties with the Hittite kings.

Trivia

• In art works, Seth is usually depicted as an enigmatic creature called the sha, a beast resembling no known creature, although it could be seen as a composite of an aardvark, a donkey, a jackal or a Fennec fox.
