Humanoid Khepri, Late Period, ca. 664-332 BC. Egyptian Museum of Berlin

Khepri is an ancient Egyptian god associated with the rising sun, creation, and rebirth. He is often depicted as a scarab beetle, symbolizing transformation and renewal.

Khepri’s name is related to the verb kheper, meaning “to become” or “to incarnate,” reflecting his role as a symbol of birth and transformation. In ancient Egyptian cosmology, he represented the morning aspect of the sun god Ra, while Ra embodied midday and Atum sunset. Thus, Khepri was part of the triune image of the sun, embodying eternal rebirth.
