• Ammon — A major deity in Egyptian mythology (Amun / Amon), originally associated with the air and hidden aspects of creation, later syncretized with the sun god as Amun-Ra and adopted by the Greeks as the god Ammon. Often depicted with ram horns, his cult was centered at the main temple in Thebes and the famous oracle in the Siwa Oasis, where Alexander the Great was proclaimed a legitimate son of this deity.
