Egypt: the Temple of Sobek and Haroeris at Kom Ombo. This detail of a sandstone relief at the entrance to the proanos is part of a set which shows the sign of life, an ankh with an arm. In one hand he holds an ouas scepter which, at the top, is decorated with an animal's head with small eyes, marked ears and a long nose. It can be identified as many things ;a donkey, ant-eater, greyhound or okapi, which are all considered as figurations of the god of evil, Seth. Egypte: Temple de Sobek et d'Haroeris à Kom Ombo. Ce détail d'un relief en grès dans l'entrée du pronaos fait partie d'un ensemble qui montre le signe de vie, ankh doté de bras. Il tient en main un sceptre ouas dont le sommet est orné d'une tête d'animal, aux petits yeux, aux oreilles biseautées et au museau très étiré. De nombreuses identifications sont possibles: âne, fourmilier, lévrier, okapi.. qu'on considère toutes comme la figuration du dieu du mal, Seth.
