Is Ra El?

Re: Is Ra El?

The Egyptians didn't believe in a transcendent creator: the first God emerged within the world. Re is just the Sun God, although that's obviously pretty important. (Ra is a Polynesian.)

This depends more on what time period in Egypt.

Also, technically there are no vowels in Egyptian heiroglyphic...and the sound after the "r" doesn't exist in the English language, so how you spell it is a bit of a moot point, either is recognisably correct in the vernacular.
