Tatenen. Detail

Detail. Ramesses III and Prince Amonherkhepshef in the presence of Ptah identified with the Memphite earth-god Tatenen, who wears on his head a headdress consisting of a sun disc, two ostrich feathers and two uraeus serpents resting on two ram's horns. The god Tatenen, as his name 'the rising earth' indicates, personified the earth that emerged from primordial Chaos.
