Sah (god)

Sah (sꜣḥ) was a god in Ancient Egyptian religion, representing a constellation that encompassed the stars in Orion and Lepus,[1] as well as stars found in some neighbouring modern constellations.

[2][3] His consort was Sopdet known by the ancient Greek name as Sothis,[4] the goddess of the star Sirius.

Sah came to be associated with a more important deity, Osiris, and Sopdet with Osiris's consort Isis.

[5] Sah was frequently mentioned as "the Father of Gods" in the Old Kingdom Pyramid Texts.

The pharaoh was thought to travel to Orion after his death.
