God of the Moon
It is well known that the Pharaohs and the ancient Egyptian civilization were linked to the worship of the moon, which was believed to have three gods. These gods, according to their antiquity, are the moon god "Aah," followed by "Khonsu," who is known as the wanderer or traveler and for whom the Temple of the Moon God is located in Luxor. The third moon-related deity is the god "Thoth," who is credited with creating the lunar calendar.
One of the most significant temples in the Luxor Temple Complex is recognized to be the Temple of Khonsu, also known as the Moon God. It is filled with inscriptions and illustrations that depict the beliefs of the ancient Egyptians and how they saw the Moon God Khonsu, as well as his parents, the god "Amun" and this goddess, "Mut."
Among the most significant and exquisite structures in ancient Egypt is the Temple of Khonsu. It was initiated around 1198 BC by King Ramses III, the second monarch of the Twentieth Dynasty. Ramses IV, his son, and later Ramses XI finished building it. Herihor, the last king of the Twentieth Dynasty, was a high priest who ascended to the throne in 1085 BC.
The inscriptions discovered in his Karnak temple describe him as looking like a man with a lock of hair hanging from his head and the head of a falcon capped with a lunar disk. He took on a distinct form and was depicted clutching scepters and a set of emblems in other inscriptions.
