[Please paste your work in here .... it should look like this] =The Sky God. (is that good?) im still awsome teehee :)= Horus was known as the sky god and the spirit of light. His eyes were said to be the sun and the moon. His head was formed as a falcon. Horus is one of the most important gods to the egyptian people. The falcon is the symbol of kingship. Horus has a falcon head because his father, Osirus was the priveous king so Horus should be the rightful owner of the throne. But Horus's uncle,Seth, murdered Osirus and stole the throne. Horus was also the son of Isis so he inherited the magic and power from her. Horus challenged his uncle for the throne and the battle between them went on for 80 years. Horus lost an eye during the battle and the eye was then after called utchat. It was considered a powerful amulet.
