Akhet

Akhet was an ancient Egyptian concept representing the horizon during the annual Nile flood, symbolizing the convergence of the horizon and the sky. It was associated with renewal, rebirth, and the cycle of growth, as the inundation brought fertile silt to the land. In Egyptian mythology and religion, Akhet also represented the horizon where the sun rose and set, symbolizing the connection between the earthly and divine realms. The term often appeared in religious texts and iconography, emphasizing its importance as a symbol of life's cyclical nature and cosmic order.
