| Abstract | ||
| The eternal gods appeared in many myths as bisexual. They mate and give birth as well. Bisexuality was a symbol of the absolute nature of the creator, who was not limited to one gender did not need a partner. Accordingly, Atum created Shu and Tefnut. Horbollon mentions that Ptah is considered male and female. In the statues of the late era, this god often appeared with a woman's chest, and Hapy also appeard in this form. Mut was the mother who gave birth to herself. It is a linguistic symbol for her as a mother to all, and one of the statues shows her with a male orgen. Neith was created the seed of men and gods, and bore the title of father of all fathers and mother of all mothers. In Esna, it was possible to address Khnum as if he were Neith.According to one of the papyri found in the Louvre Museum No.3079, Isis says: “I transformed myself into a man, even Though I was a female, in order to make your name Osiris last on the earth. Even Iemsty, had both male and female characteristics. Otherwise, he would not have been represented in the middle kingdom as a man without a beard and with the yellow skin of a woman. The Egyptians did not see this as a violation of nature, because the creator Gods must have the sexual power for both Genders. | ||
