The Udjat Eye is considered one of ancient Egypt's most common offering symbols, and it survived into the Graeco-Roman period. In most scenes the reward of this offering is similar: the king receives everything upon which the sun and moon shine and his enemies are defeated and destroyed so that the offering reaffirms his kingship which of all the symbolic meanings of the eye offering is perhaps the most important factor, which gives a purpose and aim to the rite. The king is also enabled to see ‘’those things which are hidden in the dark so his power is supreme. This paper deals with the Hnk WDAt ceremony in Edfu temple. It will focus on the scenes of the Hnk WDAt rituals performed for various gods and the purpose of these rituals. The article also sheds the light on the religious significance of this ritual. A descriptive and analytical methodology will be followed to describe the Hnk WDAt ritual based on reexamining the scenes of the Edfu temple. Moreover, the article will provide an analysis of the scenes and inscriptions of the Hnk WDAt ritual. |
