Atum
 
 

A Bisexual High God

 
 

‘Coffin Texts’ I, 161: ff.

I am Atum, the creator of the Eldest Gods,

I am he who gave birth to Shu,

I am he who did what seemed good to him,

I took my space in the place of my will,

like those two serpentine circles.

  Translated by R.T. Bundle Clark,
in his Myth and Symbol in Ancient Egypt (London 1959)p.80.
