Description
God representing the midday sun in its full splendor.
He was believed to have ruled as the first pharaoh of Egypt. In ancient times, he was the most important figure of the Underworld; it was said that every night he traveled through it in the form of Auf-Ra, the setting sun.

For his journey across the sky, it was believed that he traveled from East to West in a 24-hour journey.
During the day, he sailed in a boat known as the
"Mandjet," and at night, he traveled in a small barge called the "Mensenktet." Depending on the moments of the journey, he manifested in three different entities: at dawn, he was Jepri; at midday, Horaiti, and at dusk, Atum.
