Heh. faience vase

 

 

depiction of the god Heh

Egyptian, 1350-1150 BC
From Tomb 61, Enkomi, Cyprus

The god of infinity

This faience vase has been made in the form of a closed lotus flower. It is decorated with a depiction of Heh. The primary meaning of the term Heh was 'millions', but Heh was transformed into the Egyptian god of infinity (as seen here), by association with the symbols for year and for rebirth. The god is shown in his usual guise as a kneeling man holding notched palm ribs (hieroglyphic symbol for 'year') in each hand and carrying one on his head. He is also holding lotus flowers, symbolic of rebirth. An Egyptian creation myth describes the new-born sun rising out of a lotus floating on the waters of Nun, personification of the ocean of chaos. Heh was also one of the Ogdoad, a group of eight primeval deities whose main cult centre was at Hermopolis Magna.
This vessel was found in one of the tombs at Enkomi in Cyprus, which contained many imported items, illustrating both the wealth of the occupants and the island's key position in the circulation of cultural influences during the Late Bronze Age
