Thoth was among the most complex and mysterious gods of the ancient Egyptian world. His origins lost to time, he would become the deity of writing, heka (magic), the moon and fate. He would aid in the resurrection of Osiris, intercede on the part of justice (ma’at) in the dispute between Horus and Set and go on to become worshiped at Hermopolis as Lord of the Ogdoad.
