Hu (mythology)
In Egyptian mythology, Hu is the god of the word which Ra used to create the world (and is also the word itself). He, and Sia, were created from a drop of blood that came from Ra's penis. They both represent the mind and wisdom of Ra. His name means “Endlessness.” Hu was a god who personified intelligence and the perceptive mind. Associated with royalty, Hu was sometimes pictured as a sphinx.
Hu also is referred to by the ancient Egyptians as the "divine utterance". As such it is analogous to Christianity's logos, the Om of Hinduism, etc.
