    Interesting that Horus was described as feeble and weak but grew up to be strong. Almost like the Egyptian Royal line was in denial about the effects of incest…
    “Our child was born weak and deformed! Do you think it’s because we’re siblings?”
    “Nah, I’m sure they’ll grow out of it.”

    • @johmlemon532
      @johmlemon532 2 ปีที่แล้ว +412

      The Egyptians were actually awkwardly knowing about what happens when you commit incest, and even some gods and a lot of the royals resented it, and still yet, at the same time many people did extremely incestual things. *cough* cleopatra *cough* married her brother *cough*

      I hate to keep talking but… lol. Poseidon’s sons Orion and other son Triton posed as a threat to the gods, so Artemis had to kill them as the great hunter she was. She pretended to like Orion better than Triton to make him hate his brother and kill him, blah blah I don’t have to say the full story. But basically, when Artemis was in love with her cousin, nobody questioned that? Not weird at all? *cough* incest

      Actually it was more because Ra foresaw the children of Nut and Geb would bring disaster (and he was right since Isis was able steal Ra’s saliva and create a deadly cobra to poison Ra. Ra didn’t die but was in so much agony. Isis was able to cure it, but under the condition Ra giving her his secret name, which she was able to use to get him to step down and let Osiris rule, which then snowballed into all the Set drama)
      In response to said prophecy, Ra forbade Nut from giving birth any day of the year (and in this time it was 360 days) Nut got a loophole by having Thoth gamble with Khonsu the Moon God and won enough moonlight for 5 new days, resulting in her and Geb’s children Osiris, Isis, Set, Nephthys, and Horus the Elder. This loophole abuse seriously pissed off Ra, who then had Shu keep Nut and Geb apart

  • @Felipe70185
    @Felipe70185 2 ปีที่แล้ว +85

    So, here's one interesting thing I learned about Egyptian Mythology these days
    Remember how Atum suddenly turned into Ra? That's mostly because Egypt was really a kind of Game of Thrones with sand - in a smaller scale also. While rulerships conquered each others' cities, it seems like some of them got the knowingly good will of our big boy Alexander of conquering while letting them be with their own cultures. Nevertheless, they would share some funnies about each others gods, and that's when Atum and Ra probably merged into one, while being the "supreme and primordial" god of two different cultures.
    In some versions of the New Kingdom myths, Ra and Horus are also just one character, but most of the versions I read, Horus took the position of sun God - and thus supreme god - while Ra was in his underworld daily trips. It can be really confusing most of the times
    But we're talking about 3000 years of history that is mostly burried and, maybe, lost in translation. So we can be satisfied on what we got

    • @xenotypos
      @xenotypos 2 ปีที่แล้ว +7

      Well religion just depended on the city and so when one particular city dominated their version of the story became the dominant one. Sometimes they just edited the story. It happened on most very ancient mythologies (Greek myths varied depending on the time and place) but it's very visible for the Egyptians since it's the chief god that changed several times (3?). Probably because the center of power of the whole Egypt changed like that.

    • @JakeDoubleyoo
      @JakeDoubleyoo  2 ปีที่แล้ว +26

      That specific part is referring to the greek writer, Plutarch's recounting of the Osiris Myth.
      Isis travels to Byblos where Osiris's body had washed up on a pile of heather which grew around him into a tree. The tree was then chopped into a pillar for the king of Byblos's temple, with Osiris still inside.
      I believe all of that is corroborated in other authentic Egyptian sources, but what follows matches a section from The Homeric Hymn to Demeter to a tee:
      Isis (Demeter in the Homeric Hymn) disguises herself as a human woman and meets the king's maidservants who bring her back to the palace. She's then charged with taking care of the king's son, who she nurses and attempts to make immortal by bathing him in fire each night. But the mother sees her and interrupts the spell, causing Isis to reveal her true form in anger.
      This story structure is first seen in The Homeric Hymn to Demeter, and as far as I'm aware does not show up in Egyptian tradition until Plutarch. So it was either adopted from Greek tradition, or added by Plutarch himself.

    2:52 Yeah...
    That is a confusing way of wording that. You made it sound like the Egyptians copied from Greek mythology. It wasn't. The myth of Osiris was already THOUSANDS OF YEARS OLDER THAN GREEK CULTURE, let alone Greek myth. It's just that it was passed down mostly orally and the Egyptian written records of the story were fragmentary and incomplete, so Plutarch took it upon himself to fill in the gaps. We still don't know how much of his retelling reflects Greek culture or Egyptian culture.

      Hmmmm but they did copy from other cultures though, even if it wasn't from the Ancient Greeks that we know, it has loads of similarities with Mesophotamian myths and potentially proto Greek stories that shaped Ancient Greek stories. So you can't make it sound like it was all original because it wasn't

I like listening to these funny mythology videos, it's nice to play in the background while you're drawing and or doing your homework (but on that note you may or may not get easily distracted like I do and I having the dreaded curse of laziness.)

    Fandom: Why don't we make it sexual.
    Yeah we can all agree Egyptian Mythology is a great reference for a Telenovela. If you look at it, it got it all, one brother gets much better reputation and the other brother is jealous because both of them are trying their best but his brother gets all the attention, a son getting revenge for his father killer who is his uncle because of jealousy, and ofcourse hot people having sex.
