Something I wish people would keep in mind with Egyptian mythology is they didn't apply the concepts of good and evil to their gods as other cultures have. It makes perfect sense that Khonsu could be absolutely terrifying. But his terror was still in service to pharaoh. Same with Set. Folks like to completely ignore that Set's consent is required in the crowning of new pharaohs and he protects Ra in the underworld every night. People like to just label him "the Egyptian Satan."
Same thing as Hades. Guy just chills in the underworld but everyone thinks he's evil.
Depends of the era i guess. Seth is both seen has evil and untrustworthy but also necessary to the cosmic order (he does defend the sun every night after all). It´s a balanced thing. You´re right but it´s understandable that he is seen this way since even his hieroglyphic symbol was use to describe negative concepts
Like, how many times that Anubis depicted as evil necromancer in movies or games? One of his job in the mythology is literally being a funeral director, LOL.
@@noirtreize2713 yes !!! Leave Anubis alone dang it ! He Just wants to do his job ! XD
You want a villain ? Seth is right there ! (and his complexity makes him a great antagonist)
@@switchplayer1016 So as the Dark Hindu God/Goddess Kali which is the Grim Reaper and Dark light. That doesn't make him or her evil. So people has tendencies to snap judgments to their deities.
Khonsu is a pretty fascinating deity. It's a shame he's not covered as heavily as gods like Isis or even Horus.
Dude comparing the Obydos triad to khonsu is like comparing April fool's to Christmas
@@holbvgbbbbkfzlol no.
As a passionate fan about Egyptian mythology, I am really happy that my boy moonknigth which I loved since I saw him in a game, is getting some spotlight along with Khonsu and other gods
@@caversdelight what does this abomination game has to do with my comment ? 🤢🤢
@@caversdelight no man, the game is called "Future Fight". I've been playing it since I was 6 or sth. It's a really cool game 🔥
First time I saw moonknight was in spider-man web of shadows.
@@caversdelight lol they just added moonknight a week ago and a lot ppl have first seen him via mobile games or ultimate alliance
Same here! I realized a lack of Egyptian representation in entertainment and was waiting for everyone to realize how much rich history is in Egypt.
Here because of Moonknight. Hopefully we get more about Khonsu in Moonknight. Its a very interesting backstory. A cannibal god that turns into a defender. A god of time and of the moon. That's an interesting story. He's very underutilized. #moonknight #khonsu #moon knight
totally. I think of all the heroes that borrow power from and basically work on behalf of the Gods he's my fav. Shazam never really appealed to me, and Wonder woman wasn't that interesting, but Moon Knight was so cool. It was neat to see a hero struggle with really bad mental issues. I know most heroes have personality issues they struggle with but his were so overwhelming that you just had to feel for the guy.
Khonsu was always a defender and his aggression was a product of the challenges faced, he earned his bloodthirsty reputation as the God of Kings protecting pharaohs much in the same way Mithras was considered God of Kings in Persian mythology. Both symbolised in their own way divine justice in different traditions.
MoonKnight was Fantastic.. totally unexpected favourite..
Fascinating stuff, thanks for the upload it's really nice to get some back-story before delving into Moon Knight. I can't wait to see where Marvel decides to go with it!
aer
The moon knight is yahuah. Freemasons run the entertainment industry. Want to understand the Trinity? Watch death note. Light is the moon knight God. Misa is Light. L is El. Also Jesus. Near is his replacement. Ryuk is Lucifer. All are one.
True
You need no look into back story clearly marvel didn't do any
I think the Khonsu path work better in a grey ideology where neither good or bad are clearly defined and separated. Unlike modern days, antiquity civilisations were very nuanced with seemingly good characters doings bad things and seeming evil characters doing good things or have positive roles, there is rarely a entirely good or bad character. Maybe it reflected better the environement ancient peoples lived in.
Mythological interpretations aside it's worth noting that Egypt has at least once in remote antiquity experienced famine so devastating that the population was forced to descend into cannibalism during prolonged periods of crop failure. It would seem as if the entity of Khonsu embodies a symbolic interpretation of those events within the psyche of the Egyptians. The first thing people tend to do in extreme circumstances is question the gods themselves and react in anger. It's not surprising then that in the Cannibal Myth the pharaoh would send Khonsu forth to eat the gods themselves in a time when even Egyptian royalty were subjected to the most grim form of survival instinct imaginable. His association to the moon reflects the passage of that time and their own transition back into the light from the darkness of their own cultural identity from the things they did to survive that time. They find their own redemption through the characterization of the blood thirsty god transforming into the benevolent protector of travellers, witness to the weighing of their souls in the afterlife and patron of the crops which once failed that led them into that darkness to begin with and the madness of the things they did to survive.
It's been said many times that in his effort to understand God that man has continuously created new aspects of God in his own image to give an explanation to and understanding of his own behavior and condition. Khonsu, it would seem, was the Egyptians way of understanding and confronting the darker parts of human nature and our own ability to find redemption
Basically the Traveller from destiny 2 is literally just Khonsu.
Is a moon, gives peeps immortality, is literally called the Traveller, is benevolent.
Is a God of moon, is mentioned in a script meant to give the pharaoh immortality, is supposedly benevolent.
Bundie been real quiet since this came out☠️☠️☠️
The Traveler is not a moon, but I see what you mean
@THE DREADED ONE wtf
It wasn't a question just a reaction
@@ryanlindstrom3564 that guy probably smokes too much weed
@THE DREADED ONE like dude are you alright
Also that's why people gets a little crazy anywhere you go and don't know why. But when you look up at the night sky, it'll make sense to say "Ah, it's a full moon!". Khonsu bathes the moonlight towards us and discovers on what filled our maddened hearts in the night.
Thanks, i´ve choose Khonsu for one of my schools home work, so your video is gonna help me a lot!!!.
cheerings from the federal institute of tecnology, science and educaton of Bahia, Brazil!.
Wow this was new, subbed! It kinda makes sense because at first they (Egyptians) had a handful of Gods, and the only stable deity who minded his own business, never arguing for power among other deities was Anubis. The others argued quite a lot, and this might be where Khonsu came in the picture. Just my little deduction, I might be off with the time periods. Good job guys
This was a brilliant video, I look forward to more
Ooh, a cool new channel! This was a good one, I can't wait to see what else you do.
I really, really needed to hear this story. Thank you. ♡
Liked the video, decided to look at your channel and was really surprised that this was your first video because of how well made it is. Looking forward to whatever you make next
the thing about lunacy is not so much a pun as it is an ode to the original meaning of lunacy. At the time the word was created, people believed the moon attributed to insanity.
As someone who moongazes a lot I feel like having too much lunar and not enough solar energy in yourself is what leads to lunacy
When it comes to modern characters with a redemption arc like the ones discussed here, I might want to point out Stitch, from Lilo and Stitch. Yes, he's a cutesy cartoon character, but - similar thing. A genetic experiment (the last of 626 of them) created by an "evil genius" for the purposes of destroying cities, who uses the talents that were put in place to facilitate that destruction in service of good instead. And in fact, with only a few exceptions, the other experiments do the same thing. They learn to use talents in service of good that they were originally created to do evil with. And that's the entire premise of the cartoon series. With the service of good, in each case, being called "the one place (each experiment) belongs". Again, while this is the sort of thing that is overlooked a lot (in no small part due to the comedic and "cutesy" aspects), it's very similar to the roles of gods and how said gods find their roles. And to some extent, the "evil genius" who created those experiments, Jumba, also finds his role, in a way that's not much different from what the experiments themselves do - in his case, he ends up being like a crazy uncle stereotype that doesn't entirely leave the "evil genius" roots behind but shows that he was never entirely evil to begin with.
Wasnt the last, there's 3 after him. 627, 628, and Leroy (629)
@@playerjj4304 I knew that. It started out that way, though, with 626. The others are created in later episodes. And something tells me that despite how mummies are treated in the movies Lilo watches, Ancient Egyptians would like the story anyway. And besides, Lilo isn't actually all that disrespectful towards said mummies, she just hadn't had any history lessons on Ancient Egypt yet - the ones that would tell her what a mummy actually is.
I am very interested in khonsu, you are the most informative channel, you need more likes and subscribers, I don’t know how this isn’t viral
This is absolutely fantastic, thank you for this!
this video is absolutely amazing, this channel is awesome, and this dude is the person that we didn’t deserve but got anyways.
fascinating indeed this is,been looking for writings that had the God-eater attribute of Khonsu , thankfully this was the most informed one I found. My thanks! ✨
I just popped up here after moon knight to gain a batter understanding of konshu.
Same, was scrolling and it scrolled all the way down to this. FREAKING
Wow, I love it! Perfect video, thanks!
That’s a wonderful presentation 👏
Watching Moon Knight, I didn't know if Khonsu was a figure made up for the story or based on a real figure in Egyptian mythology. I think the design also threw me off, the head looks like a crow skull and not any of the familiar animal heads I've seen on the Egyptian gods.
The crow imagery is very unfamiliar to the type used in Ancient Egypt but I think it is a way to show Khonshu's ambiguous personnality. He is intelligent like a crow, yet childish ; He is a defender of humanity but judge of those who did evil. The crow is very ambiguous in itself : we see it at the bird of Death (Edgar Allan Poe with The Raven) but it is also a messenger of the gods (Odin in Norse Mythology). A falchion would be more difficult to show as ambiguous even if you are accentuate the predator side of it.
@310165 310165 That is what they were saying : the crow imagery of the show was strange to them because there aren't any crow resembling animals used to depict ancient Egyptian gods
In the last episode it implies that the crow skull imagery comes from Steven/Marc's past - shown in the cave
@@DaraButterfield Yes I thought about it but still Konshu's temple still had a crow skull
It’s a FALCON skull not a crow skull
Loved this! Thank you! The skull in the show and comic books is that of a crow and not a hawk or falcon. Leads me to hope we might see Amun-Re and/or Horus, and they wanted Khonshu to be visually distinct. Loved this and Khonshu!
The level of quality is greatly appreciated! I look forward to experiencing the rest of your work 😁
I’m glad these lore keepers of CZcams are making videos about khonsu and his origins in mythology that influenced the marvel interpretation of him. :3
Great video! Thanks!
Your background music is perfect for me. Helped me focus on what you were teaching.
AMAZING work on this video! 4/6th the way through the Moon Knight show, and your video seems to be most prophetic. They seem to be following the characterization you laid out pretty much exactly.
Thank You that was very informative 👍
Awesome video man. Khonsu 4 life.
I really enjoyed watching this, greetings from Giza Egypt! :)
so Khonsu really did empty out Moon-Knight - not just mentally but physsically!!
Yes!!! I Love this!
great story and very well told
I love how this is on my recommended
Great video
I've been watching the show and I was watching a CZcams video about mooknlight. Then this video showed up on my recommendation. I like this video, very insightful. I actually would like to see a follow-up video of your review of the series based off of your Egyptian knowledge.
As a historian and mythology buff, this was an impressive presentation. Well done.
In translation to psychology, Khonsu would be the persons shadow. It can determine your fate and happiness on your path to enlightenment. In death your shadow or negative karma must be lite as a feather to determine your reincarnation. Lizard brain or mammal/humane brain? In moonknight the character is schizophrenic wich I relate too and in the film it's depicting the entirety of what the psyche goes through in order to not only balance themselves but how our chakras are tied to ancient spiritual beliefs within the physical/quantum world where time space and dimensions all collide within ourselves.
5:35 Mesoamerican cultures, especially the Mayans, recognized the moon as a goddess figure and plays a big role in the mythology
This is a very informative and helpful video. Thank you.
The description of konshu in the second set of magical spells sounds a lot like ammit, the bloodthirsty beast who swallows and lives off of the hearts of those who make it through the underworld and make it to the scales where their hearts are weighed
Read the Anunnaki gods they were there ,read Mahabharata Hindu they are there ,and Hebrew book of Enoch ,they maybe have different name but the rules won't changes.
This were the watchers and thier children ,and wives who they made as goddes.
Great video, tough as suggestion, could you add your references to the description for further reading.
Sooo love history ❤️
All the best in you future
Khonsu then would be associated with twilight the time between the moon setting and the sun rising. That's a very powerful spot to be because that twilight is when traditionally evil is banished and good is allowed to flourish the end of night and the beginning of day.
Nice ❤❤❤
Awesome video! Keep making videos. The Egyptian god Set is my vote for a video. Personally I think he is a scapegoat to make Osiris the hero of the story.
Yeah like imagine your trusted brother impregnating your wife while you're on duty protecting Ra, that alone is enough for u to go full psycho mode,
damn boi typical us soldiers story
@@kindbeast6974 the weird part of it all is the Islamic story of Harut and Marut also known as Ouza and Aza. Two fallen angels who fight each other over a maiden, Zohra. Aza loses the battle and returns to heaven. Aza becomes Azael and Azazel in Hebrew means scapegoat. Ouza I think becomes Osiris, but general consensus is that he was Shemihaza from the book of Enoch. I wonder if he was both. And I wonder how Emmenduranki second to the last king on the Sumerian Kings list before the flood fits in to it his name means, meeting place between heaven and earth, and he gets remembered as Enki.
@@Mortismors Islam states that there's no other gods other than Allah so I don't think muslims believe that Haruth is Osiris, here's their story
I'm too lazy to type so I'll just copy paste an article
Hārūt and Mārūt, in Islām, two angels who unwittingly became masters of evil. A group of angels, after observing the sins being committed on earth, began to ridicule man’s weakness. God declared that they would act no better under the same circumstances and proposed that some angels be sent to earth to see how well they could resist idolatry, murder, fornication, and wine. No sooner did Hārūt and Mārūt, the angels chosen, alight on earth than they were seduced by a beautiful woman. Then, discovering that there was a witness to their sin, they killed him. The angels in heaven were then forced to admit that God was indeed right, whereas the fallen angels faced atonement for their sins either on earth or in hell. Hārūt and Mārūt chose to be punished on earth and were condemned to hang by their feet in a well in Babylonia until the Day of Judgment.
Hārūt and Mārūt are first mentioned in the Qurʾān (2:102) as two angels purveying evil in Babylon, and the legend probably appeared to explain how they happened to be in that position. The story itself parallels a Jewish legend about the fallen angels Shemḥazaī, ʿUzza, and ʿAzaʾel. The names Hārūt and Mārūt appear to be etymologically related to those of Haruvatāt and Ameretāt, Zoroastrian archangels.
@@kindbeast6974 I personally think Ouza became Osiris. Bahai' scripture which is the continuation of Islam from Judaism states that there are only Archangels and Gaurdian Angels and that the "Watchers" were just men. We're also talking about the book of Enoch or the book of Watchers with events taking place before the Younger Dryas probably 13,000 years ago. That's why I think Emmenduranki on the Sumerian Kings list is Ouza or Osiris.
@@Mortismors
How old is the first Book of Enoch?
Most scholars believe that 1 Enoch was originally written in Aramaic perhaps as early as the 3rd century B.C. The oldest fragments of the book were found among the Dead Sea Scrolls and dated to roughly the second century B.C. This places the book squarely in the middle of what scholars call the Second Temple Period
The oldest known depiction of Osiris dates to about 2300 bce, but representations of him are rare before the New Kingdom (1539-1075 bce), when he was shown in an archaizing form as a mummy with his arms crossed on his breast, one hand holding a crook, the other a flail.
So Osiris is actually older than Ouza
Now let's compare their charachteristics
Ouza, is a fallen angel of apocryphal Abrahamic traditions and Manichaeism who ranked in the heavenly hierarchy as the leader of the Watchers,
His name means "I have seen"
He is portrayed as the leader of a band of angels called "sons of God" or "Watchers" (grigori in Greek). These Watchers became consumed with lust for mortal women and entered into machinations against heaven in order to consummate their desires.
When the rebel angels first meet upon Mount Hermon to organize their secret society of 200 members, Ouza, as their recognized chieftain, initially doubts the initiates' resolve to forswear heaven. This they had planned to achieve through dark alliances and clandestine oaths sworn under penalty of death, thereby binding themselves to that treachery whereby they would use their heaven-acquired knowledge to create a counterfeit religion on earth to satisfy their lusts and carnal desires, Having thus persuaded his fellow Watchers to join him in his schemes to fornicate with women, Ouza led his angelic brethren in their seduction of the human females for whom they yearned. The hybrid offspring born from this unnatural mating between heavenly and earthly beings were the Giants,
The Watchers shared with humankind various forbidden arts, sciences, and celestial "secrets" or "mysteries" of the true heavenly gnosis or knowledge - especially that Wisdom possessed by Azazel, who taught them also the secrets of magic, of war (including metallurgy and weaponry) and of seductive ornamentation (including jewelry and cosmetics) - all of which ultimately brought down the wrath of Heaven upon the rebel angels and their spawn.
Now let's see who is Osiris ?
He is the god of fertility, agriculture, the afterlife, the dead, resurrection, life, and vegetation in ancient Egyptian religion. He was classically depicted as a green-skinned deity with a pharaoh's beard, partially mummy-wrapped at the legs, wearing a distinctive atef crown, and holding a symbolic crook and flail. He was one of the first to be associated with the mummy wrap. When his brother, Set, cut him up into pieces after killing him, Isis, his wife, found all the pieces and wrapped his body up, enabling him to return to life. Osiris was at times considered the eldest son of the earth god Geb and the sky goddess Nut, as well as being brother and husband of Isis, with Horus being considered his posthumously begotten son.
Osiris was the judge of the dead and the underworld, and the agency that granted all life, including sprouting vegetation and the fertile flooding of the Nile River. He was described as "He Who is Permanently Benign and Youthful" and the "Lord of Silence". The kings of Egypt were associated with Osiris in death - as Osiris rose from the dead so they would be in union with him, and inherit eternal life through a process of imitative magic.
His name means "The Mighty One",
He was commonly depicted as a pharaoh with a complexion of either green (the color of rebirth) or black (alluding to the fertility of the Nile floodplain) in mummiform (wearing the trappings of mummification from chest downward).
So nope Osiris isn't Ouza tho you might think that way because of the similarities in name, but if you compare the age of the myths u gotta say that Ouza is copied from Osiris not the opposite, comparing their identities, fonctions and appearance is even worse as they have nothing in common, tho set got cheated on, he wasn't really angry, he was a cheater as well, the conflict between Osiris and Seth is having the throne not a hoe, on the other hand the conflict of Ouza and his fellow friend is about a woman while the main topic is about rebellion, Osiris wasn't a rebel Ouza was, Osiris wasn't An Angel but the mummy of the first pharoh, Osiris died and got resurrected, Ouza didn't, Osiris son is Horus a falcon man, Ouza's offspring are giants, Osiris and his bro fought for the throne, Ouza and his bro fought for a woman, u Can clearly tell they ain't the same person, they got different looks, jobs, personnalities and different stories as well as different timelines with Book of Enoch being new compared to Osiris myth
So...just like kali in Hinduism...she was a God eater too but somewhere along the way she had a change of heart in this free will zone,earth. She became the protector of evil and destroys black magic...maybe this is how we as humans create our own reality...you have the power and you have a choice. Is what you do with it. So even a murderer has a chance to enlightenment. They are us. Everyone, no matter what you did...there is always a choice you can make to be the light or to be darkness. This is my personal understanding...please correct me if I'm wrong
Love and light to you all🙏🙏

Isn’t Khonsu also the Moon God? Didn’t realize he was a being of destruction.
Time devours all.
Interesting how similar this background for Khonsu is with Sekhmet's blood madness
Just a small detail, Khonshu from moon knight doesn't have a falcon skull. It is a Corvid skull (Such as a Raven or Crow). Still very interesting video!
For years I thought konshu was created for the comics. Thanks for the info
love how youtube reccommended me khonsu when im waiting for moonknight finale 😭😭
I remember this
When I first watched moon knight without even knowing anything about it, I noticed the Thoth look alike in the scenes, but read that it's actually khonsu. Good to know I wasn't far off now hearing you say he is Thoth's partner
thus is the night ,as a child you are a fraid of the dark , when you get older you embrace it
Great video ! I love egyptian lore and mythologies in general so your channel is of to a great start ! Immediate subscribtion for me .
As for moonknight... Ho man they delivered ! Not spoiling anything but the mythology really shines in it. Would not mind videos on the other gods or concepts ^^
I like the fact that he used marvel characters as examples and then moon knight is a marvel character too
Interesting.
❤️ Khonsu
Interesting
My goodness
Holy 👻
Khonsu (Ancient Egyptian: ḫnsw; also transliterated Chonsu, Khensu, Khons, Chons or Khonshu; Coptic: Ϣⲟⲛⲥ, romanized: Shons) is the ancient Egyptian god of the Moon. His name means "traveller", and this may relate to the perceived nightly travel of the Moon across the sky.
I remember reading about how Khonsu lost five days to Thoth so the five Gods could be born.
Hail Khonsu!
The punisher hasn´t changed though. He is a captive of his own fight for revenge.
12:39 I knew it's like Assassin's Creed, I knew it! 😂😅 Furthermore, the games based the Assassins' symbol from the mark left by the skull of a eagle. Not of a falcon, but a falcon skull would leave a similar mark.
In the show, Khonsu is depicted with the skull of an ibis, not a falcon. It's curved beak perhaps representing the male phallic moon crescent?
Moon Kniiiiiight !
WAIT , KHONSU WAS REAL.... The time has come , time to unlock some personalities
7:20 I've never heard about the books of the end of the year before, I couldn't find anything online about them, Only things about the book of the dead pop up!!!
Same! I even reached out to an Egyptologist for more info, but couldn't find anything. There is mention of several books (I believe 4) written by the gods, so maybe it's one of them. It's a mystery that I've only found in one source, so the search continues!
@@themythicarchives8020 And the mystery continues!
perfect timing for moon knight
Snape's redemption arc essentially concludes when he stopped being a death eater and spied for Dumbledore. The rest of his story is him being a badass and dying while being a hero. Not for his crimes, but for his acting as a hero- albeit without voldemort knowing.
That's if you forget how he bullied kids for years. Snape isn't a "good" person. He torments children to feel better about himself. What's good about that?
Here cause I’m watching moonnight
Ok so I have read the The Cannibal Hymn twice over already and I don’t find the quote you showed anywhere. He is not even mentioned by names. And Unos is called Wenis. Can you please give me a source?
There are a lot of different translations and the English spelling of the name is also different, since we don't really know how spoken Egyptian sounded. As for the exact wording in the video, I combined a couple of translations, but the one closest to what's in the video is here: www.pyramidtextsonline.com/translation.html#anteeastg
This video only exists because of Moon Knight.
day and night
The recent episode of Moon Knight, there's baboons in the boat during their travel in duat.
Honestly male Lunar gods are just as common in the world if not more common than female Lunar gods. It's very Eurocentric to say Lunar gods are often female.
Well for example Hindus do not turn away judge or stick there nose up at those that have committed crimes. Everyone can eventually be saved or enlightened... maybe not in this life but the next. Think it was Shiva who took a demon to the water took his anger away and in return he protected the people around that spiritual water hole. Besides what normally happens when you put someone down for there actions... they don't choose the path your on that's for sure. I'd rather be friends with the monster and truly encourage an enlightened path... lead by example than push them away or make an enemy out of them
Summon the suit
He is the eclipse
A few quick flaws that warps the context and makes some of the misinterpretations persist...
- They're not "gods," they're "principles" - Principles are 'rules to live by.' They are rules to live by because they're reliable. These reliable rules were consistently noticed in nature. Then made into humanoid characters, and then made to interact with the other principles. Which is what creates the stories we hyper-fantasize today.
- Most of the names and words being used are warped, arab & european-english words. Ancient Kmt didn't use nearly as many vowels, which completely changes not only the way things are said out loud, but it also completely warps how things are understood. Spreading a misunderstanding makes things worse. Think of it like shooting an arrow 1% off its intended trajectory. You're going to land that arrow on the wrong target by a drastic margin almost every-time. - ((example:: Kmt/Egypt:: Hru | Asr | Ast | Tehuti | Set --//-- turned into Greek:: Horus | Osiris | Isis | Thot | Seth))
- All these principles, including Khons are neutral, not negative or positive. It's probably even better to say that they are 'beneficial,' 'neutral' or 'not beneficial.' Because they're meant for balance.
Off the top of my head.
Great points, thanks for your comment. Several comments on here are mentioning the concept of good/evil not being relevant, which is true. Ancient ideas of god were beyond those terms. I should have been clearer =)
Sounds pretty similar to Saturn/Kronos in a few ways
Khansu? Son of Atum?
Cain "Cah-in"... Khan son of Adam/Atum?
Cain's (Han/"Khan") son was "Khanoke"
This could mean King Unas was Nimrod/Osiris and Canaan/or descendant was Khansu.
It is said that Nimrod and Cush and an Uncle and Cousin travelled to a place where they found "three mountains" and that Nimrod developed a system of worship based on the writings on those "three mountains."
Nimrod was a "Hunter of men." And, despite the denial of the practice by Egyptologists - claiming it is metaphor - there is art in those pyramids depicting Cannibalism.

Very interesting.
In the quran his name was " Khoonuz " . Also in the quran we have " Khaber " you will find in the islamic quran all the ancient egyptian god names like ( kheber . Khoonuz . Heru . Osiris. Waaq. And many more ) read the Quran. Even the islamic prayer originated from ancient khem or eAgypt
@Prasanth Thomas don't talk about what you don't know. There are other sides of the story and what you are saying and the way you are saying it isn't even half right or 20% right. Just because our Eid has something to do with the telling of time of Ramadan,Eid etc doesn't mean Allah is a moon god. In Qur'an He is the god of EVERYTHING that has ever been created and is still being created.
I am a Muslim myself and never saw those names but I saw the names of the idols in which people of Noah used to worship
@Prasanth Thomas Allah is the one true God , all those are names made by people themselves, how can you create something that you can destroy later on is worthy of being a God? Allah is the creator of Sun and Moon as well the creator of everything, Jewism and Christianism were originally made for monotheism but they were altered over time , Ramsis the Pharaoh is also an example.
@Prasanth Thomas the black stone is something brought down from heaven and it was white but polluted from the sins of mankind. Allah is the lord of what the era of ignorance were worshipping during that time, He is the lord of all, Quran mentions the stories of the ancients and told their news for upcoming generations so they don't repeat the same mistake those people made before. It's a warning and sermon.
Abraham (peace may be upon him) built that house with his son and foreshadowed the last prophet upcoming.
@Prasanth Thomas Yasin is one of the prophets' names not Allah , Jewism's name is based on one of prophet Jacob's 12 sons ,both religions (Jewism and Christianism) were brought to worship Allah at the beginning but was altered over time.
Allah brought down The Quran so he knows and sees that he's not the only prophet who was denounced.
Ah yes my lore🤫🧏🏽
Why is there no Enditme story in Egyptian Mythology or Twilight of the Gods?
