Abstract

The Ancient Egyptian Language is rich of terms and expressions. nHy or nHi was among these terms. The word nHy probably comes from the verb nHi which means to pray, wish, covet. The aim of this paper is to deal with nHi or nHy in the religious' texts. It will provide an overview of the different writings and the meaning of the word. nHy/ nHi presents the gods as it appeared between their names. It discusses the role and iconography of these gods in the Ancient Egyptian religion. Throughout out the religious' texts, the term nHy appeared in the Pyramids texts, Coffin Texts, Book of the Dead, the Amduat, Litany of Ra, Book of the Day, and Book of the Night. It appeared in gods names such as nHi, nHy, and nHi Hr.
