The Egyptian god Horus was often pictured with the head of a Hawk (or Falcon). In hieroglyphs, the name Horus looks like a Hawk (or Falcon). One of the forms of Ra (or Re) was also a man with the head of a Hawk (or Falcon), as well as Mentu (or Montu, god of war), and Seker (or Sokar, a funerary god).
The Norse goddess Freya had a magical feathered cloak which she could use to transform into a Hawk. During one instance, she lent this cloak to Loki who was sent to rescue Idunn from the giant Thiazi.
In Greek myth, Apollo was sometimes associated with the Hawk. In one instance, Apollo transformed Daedalion into a Hawk when the man threw himself off a cliff after his daughter, Chione’s, death.
