Horus and Set

In ancient Egypt, it was believed that the god Horus had a sky battle with his uncle Set over who would inherit the throne of Egypt. This story is depicted in hieroglyphics and is one of the oldest recorded mythological battles. 

According to the myth, Horus was the son of Osiris and Isis, two of the most important gods in the Egyptian pantheon. Set, on the other hand, was Horus' uncle and brother to Osiris. The story goes that after Osiris was murdered by Set, Horus sought revenge and challenged Set to a series of battles for the right to rule Egypt. 

One of these battles was a sky battle, in which Horus and Set transformed into hawks and fought each other in the sky. After a long and grueling battle, Horus emerged victorious and was declared the rightful king of Egypt. 

This story is significant not only for its mythological importance but also for its historical and cultural significance. It is one of the oldest recorded myths in Egyptian history and has been depicted in hieroglyphics and other forms of ancient Egyptian art. It is also a reflection of the complex relationships between gods and mortals in ancient Egyptian religion and the importance of power and inheritance in Egyptian society. 

After the battle between Horus and Set, Horus emerged victorious and became the rightful king of Egypt.
However, the victory was not without cost. According to the myth, Set managed to injure Horus in the eye during their fight, resulting in Horus losing his left eye. Horus' eye became a symbol of protection and healing in ancient Egypt, and was known as the "Eye of Horus". The eye was depicted in many Egyptian artworks and was believed to have the power to ward off evil and provide protection to the wearer.
The eye was also associated with healing, and ancient Egyptian physicians would often invoke the power of the Eye of Horus during their treatments. 

The myth of Horus and Set continued to play an important role in ancient Egyptian religion and culture. It was often depicted in artwork and was the subject of many rituals and ceremonies. The story also had political implications, as it reinforced the idea of the rightful king being determined by the gods and their battles, rather than simply through lineage or military strength.
