Khonsu.svg

Summary

Description Khonsu, an ancient Egyptian god depicted as a mummiform child with a moon disk on his head. In this form, he is distinguished from Ptah by presence of a necklace and the shape of its keyhole-shaped pendent, the curved false beard rather than a square one, the presence of the moon-disk on his head, the sidelock of youth, and the crook and flail he holds. Khonsu could also be depicted as a hawk-headed man wearing the same moon-disk.
