I do feel like I should point out that while Seth/Set/Sutekh is often an antagonist to Horus in the texts at Heliopolis, he is hardly a god of evil. Sutekh's spheres were Chaos/Change, the Desert and Power/Ruling Authority. He also was associated with foreigners and storms. While he wasn't as cuddly or overtly benevolent as Hathor or Bastet (in post-unification times), he played an important role in protecting the infant Horus and empowering the armies of Egypt. One of the reasons he gets such a bad rap from later texts, is that he was revered by many of the foreign powers who dominated Egypt during the Second and Third Intermediate periods, which caused many Egyptians to highlight the negative aspects of his domain. But despite being a rival for the throne and the authority granted to his brother, Osiris/Wesir, and nephew Horus, he was a revered part of the Egyptian pantheon and to call him evil is not only an oversimplification, it's disrespectful to those who still honour him.

Yeah, I couldn't help but cringe a little when they referred to him as the god of evil. I hope they don't do this with every single chaos and trickster deity, because that's forcing a modern Western good/evil binary on cultures that didn't necessarily have one.

the concept of "good" and "evil" didn't really exist as we know it until Zoroastrianism, so applying that dichotomy to Ancient deities is inappropriate. (this can be confusing since some religions that existed before Zoroastrianism later redefined their own stories to incorporate absolute Good and Evil.)

Yes, this. You don't name Pharaohs after Gods of Evil, certainly not Great Pharaohs. Set also protected Ra in many stories on his nightly journey to the Underworld. Set also helped Ra defeat the demons therein who wanted stop Ra and thus the worldly order.

It's called hijacked by Jesus. If a pantheon doesn't have a god of evil in it later adaptions of it will pick one( usually a god of fire, death, or winter) and transform them into something closer to what Satan is like in Christianity.

It's cyclic though, with Daksha giving birth to Aditi, who gave birth to Daksha. It also changes depending on the time period, so understanding stories is difficult, since many gods share the same name. It will make doing a video on it difficult.

(im probably going to be crucified for this but..) I've been studying Egyptian Mythology for years, i ve never heard anyone refer to Isis as a moon and earth deity, nor Shu and Tefnut as anything but the different aspects of Air. Even as a crash course i would imagine it as being pretty off. Also, i wouldnt consider ancient egyptian's obsessed with death, rather, in love with life and its continuation of it.

1. Nothing about syncretism and myth adoption by conquered peoples? it's the main reason for the different stories. the Atum-Ra part of the story was purely a Greek invention. 2. Set (Sutekh) was only evil after the 20th Dynasty when the Romans and Greeks brought their fear of death to Egypt. before that time he performed roughly the same duties that Charon did across Styx. (at least 6 pharaohs have the name "Beloved of Set" Seti)

Seth is not a god of evil. Set is a god of necessary chaos. The nemesis of the pantheon is Isfet which is often translated as uncreation, and its avatar is Apep who is slain by Seth every night. Y'all, do a little deeper research. (Granted it's my religion, so of course I'm going to take issues with inaccuracies.)

Depends whose Hinduism. In the largest version, 330 million (although they can effectively be thought of as 10 million 'versions' of 33 main deities). The figure '10 million' isn't specific, btw. It's just supposed to represent a very large number (the largest people back then would've had any sense to think about) and hence infinity (meaning the actual number would properly be an infinity of gods). And of course Hinduism is 'supposed' to be mono-theistic, since all the different deities are really just manifestations of one creator being (although in actual practice, most Hindus just worship them as separate deities anyway).

Changes depending on time period. After the end of a manvantra the (demi)gods in heaven become demons and some demonic race become gods. Also there are some beings just as powerful of gods, but not e.g. Chyavana, Parashara, Janamejaya etc.

Hinduism can also be agnostic or atheistic. It's kind of your choice on how to perceive it, and you can have multiple religions too. Same with Buddhism and some other religions from south Asia.

Rick Riordan spoke of the Demon Days, is that another version or not true at all...?

кιмσиє Lots of myths have multiple versions since they were originally passed down orally, only to be written down much later. It's almost impossible to say which version is right or wrong, just which ones are more or less popular at the time. For instance, on version of Medusa is just one of a set of three sisters, but is the only one that is mortal. In another, she was a mortal woman cursed by the gods. Both are 'right', but they have waxed and wanned in popularity over time. If I remember correctly, Roridan's version of the Demon Days is accurate to the original myth - that they were added to the year so Nut could give birth.

Rick Riordan definitely didnt come up with the idea, so it's in Egyptian mythology. As for if they're mentioned in another version, I am not sure.

The five gods born on the demon days were directly mentioned, so… Even Riordan points out the inconsistency though - Horus is either born on the 5th demon day to Geb and Tefnut, or he's the son of Osiris and Isis. It gets harder trying to have both stories at once.

Another funny thing about Set is that he might not always have been viewed as en evil god, but once seen a trickster god who was, among other things, god of foreigners. Then Egypt got invaded and, well, suddenly the god of the foreigners was viewed in a less than positive light.

I was bothered too and this is the answer I got in a previous video: "There a few reasons why one would pronounce a word/name like thoth differently, but his pronunciation works along with your pronunciation because the language of ancient egypt pronounced the god's name differently, as did greek and latin, with phonemes that don't exist in modern english or would be unusual to use according to some phonological laws of modern english, to explain that in detail, ancient egyptian pronounced the name as /tʃʼiħautiː/ or /ɟiħautiː/, so to put that into a sort of english orthographic context, chihauti or jihauti, the ancient greeks transliterated the name of the god as theta-omicron (later omega)-theta, which, considering ancient greek didn't have a tʃʼ/ch sound or a ɟ/j sound, and I'm assuming /au/ had been monophthongized into /o/ or /ɔ/, they just dropped the last vowel and pronounced it /tʰɔːtʰ/, which closely resembles his pronunciation of the word as /tʰoʊt/, but from the theta-o-theta greek spelling we got our latin transliteration spelled 'Thoth,' and according to modern english orthography 'thoth' is pronounced /θäθ/"
