The god Seth of the evil and darkness


The god of brute force, god of evil and darkness, the god of drought and desert as the
 myth Osirian that the ancient Egyptians believed strongly. Seth was the patron god of storms, war and violence, was also patron of the creation of islands
Seth's appearance is almost always a strange animal to the Egyptians from the earliest times.He has a crooked nose, ears and tail raised, or animal-headed human form of a donkey in general but with time this god in the form of 
other animals such as pig, greyhound, ass, oryx, crocodile, hippopotamus, snake, fish, male donkey and a snake-headed some students say Seth took many forms of animals to escape from Horus who had to avenge the killing of his father Osiris by Seth who killed him according to the myth that we have counted in details
Seth from the start was god of the desert he inherited from his father the god Geb. 
was revered, feared and hated by his protector-destructive quality, Seth played the role of jealous brother, the representative of evil, when integrated into the myth osiriaco.pero later during the New Kingdom, is considered good god Seth has been considered patron of weapons and war becoming popular because it could create confusion and discord among the enemies of Egypt, so some pharaohs are named as Pharaoh Seti the First, father of Ramses the Second
Seth was the god of sandstorms, as god of the desert and guard the caravans that crossed the land of the pharaohs. 
Because of the extreme hostility of the desert climate, Seth was seen as extremely powerful, so much as a deity.
Seth also was responsible for protecting the solar boat of the god Ra when you travel to the other side with the dead, and the bow of the boat Seth daily struggle against the god Apophis threatening the passage of the sun god, Apophis has 
as shocking as a very large snake with three heads and wings
Seth's name means glory, and by other means: a pillar of stability, meaning associated with the monarchy because Seth was crowned after Osiris.
The conflict between Seth and Horus was very complicated and resonant that some Pharaohs sought his help in reconciliation between the two gods as  Ramses the Second and the  third, the 
best opinion is to win sympathy of the Egyptian people

The egyptian tourism is the super tourism
