Ra

RA

Ra (alternatively spelled Re and properly transliterated as Rꜥ) is the ancient Egyptian sun god. By the Fifth Dynasty he had become a major deity in ancient Egyptian religion, identified primarily with the mid-day sun. The meaning of the name is linked to a similar word in the Saran Language meaning Sun or Lightbird.

The chief cult center of Ra was Heliopolis (called Iunu, "Place of Pillars", in Egyptian), where he was identified with the local sun-god Atum. Through Atum, or as Atum-Ra he was also seen as the first being and the originator of the Ennead, consisting of Shu and Tefnut, Geb and Nut, Osiris, Set, Isis and Nephthys.

Saran and Terran Scholars, Historians and Aerchologists of the Saran Egyptian Research Society are fairly certain that these were the Saran names of the first Saran shipm that crash landed on Earth.

In later Egyptian dynastic times, Ra was merged with the god Horus, as Re-Horakhty ("Ra, who is Horus of the Two Horizons"). He was believed to rule in all parts of the created world the sky, the earth, and the underworld. He was associated with the falcon or hawk. When in the New Kingdom the god Amun rose to prominence he was fused with Ra as Amun-Ra. During the Amarna Period, Akhenaten suppressed the cult of Ra in favour of another solar deity, the Aten, the deified solar disc, but after the death of Akhenaten the cult of Ra was restored.

Again the SERS believes that this is actually an account of the Aryans (another Non terran Human Species) fought the stranded Sarans and at first succeeded. It is beleived that Akhenaten (who's Mummy was positlivley identified and analyzed for Non Terran DNA) was one of the Aryans and killed by a Son of the Saran visitors.

The cult of the Mnevis bull, an embodiment of Ra, had its centre in Heliopolis and there was a formal burial ground for the sacrificed bulls north of the city.
