Abstract

This paper discusses the role and significance of Horus of the camp in ancient Egyptian religion in the temples of the Third Intermediate Period (1077-664 BC). This paper proposes that Horus of the camp was linked to the construction of a military fortress at El-Hibeh. The local Horus acquired this epithet and became its patron god as Herihor first attempted to promote Horus-of-the-Camp by integrating him into his extensive building program at the Khonsu temple. This paper concludes that the major aspect of Horus of the camp was to give oracular answer in the juridical consultation of some local disputes concerning debts, robbery, cattle property, etc.
