The beliefs and practices surrounding the ancient Egyptian gods and goddesses were the foundation of ancient Egyptian religion, which emerged somewhere in prehistory. This paper investigates the god Re Horakhty-Khepri. The syncretism of two strong gods, Re and Horus, was one of the most significant events in Egyptian mythology, and it appears to have had a substantial philosophical and iconographic impact on Egyptian history. Re's power was augmented by this, which consisted of a falcon headed man crowned with a sun disc; in the mornings, Re has combined with Horus to become Re-Horakhty. As for Khepri who was the form of the sun god which represented the solar disc rising on the eastern horizon. The Egyptians saw the scarab or dung beetle as a sign of the god due to the beetle's habit of rolling a ball of mud or dung over the ground in a manner indicative of the god pushing the solar disc across the sky in its earliest known occurrences, kheprer. The combination of these two gods is the aim of that study.
