Thoth, or Tehuti, was a highly composite deity. His birth was coeval with that of Ra. Let us enumerate his attributes before we seek to disentangle his significance. He is alluded to as the counter of the stars, the measurer and enumerator of the earth, as being twice great and thrice great lord of books, scribe of the gods, and as possessing knowledge of divine speech, in which he was "mighty". In general, he was figured in human form with the head of an ibis, but sometimes he appears in the shape of that bird.

E perché Anubi, il dio dell'aldilà, sta pesando su una bilancia un cuore umano, affiancato dalla creatura più terrificante mai vista nell’antico Egitto? Migliaia di anni fa, in quella terra lontana ed affascinante chiamata Egitto, le persone veneravano strane divinità con il corpo d’uomo e la testa di animale.

Since the temple embodies all of divine life on a macrocosmic scale, it reflects the sublime qualities of divine regions in the physical world. The soaring columns of the temple’s hypostyle Hall, which leads celebrants into the environment of the Neteru, embody the sacred marshes of time. Auxiliary chambers and the Hall of Records in the temple reflect the majestic halls of the Duat. The divine genealogy of royal persons and thus humanity was recorded here. Additionally, the sacred mound on which the ancients rested at the dawn of time is in the temple’s sanctuary.
