Thoth
Here you see the multitude of Egyptian gods....Osiris is the 1st from the right w/ the large head-dress; next we have Horus, flanked by Anubis going left. Behind Anubis is Isis. Hathor is next (unseen). Yes, I have an infatuation w/ Egyptian Mythology. It all started with Joseph Campbell.
Hathor Osiris IsisThere is a tendency in [pagan] religious history for the gods to be grouped in 3's .... Even in Christianity, the Trinity of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost reflects the underlying tendency. In India, the great Triad included Brahma, the Creator, Vishnu, the Preserver, and Shiva, the Destroyer. These represent the cycle of existence, just as the Babylonian triad of Anu, Enlil and Ea represent the materials of existence: air, water, earth.
