In the ancient Egyptian religion, Horus was a god who was often depicted as a falcon or as a man with a falcon head, whose right eye was the sun and whose left eye was the moon. He was believed to be the god of war and the sky, and his importance grew until he eventually became the most revered god in ancient Egypt. He is probably most well-known as the protector of the ruler of Egypt. The Pharaohs were intimately connected with Horus, and often an image of Horus was carved above the doors of the Pharaohs’ palaces. It’s not really a stretch of the imagination to think that nomadic tribes might seize upon this mythology to create their own apparel… just look at how the American Indians incorporated their own mythology into ceremonial wear. I (of course) have given even a step further, adding wings and horns since those are a part of who I am as a character, but all elements can be used separately or in any combination, making them the perfect addition to any fantasy wardrobe. Happy shopping!

I originally blogged these horns almost a month ago on Sept 23rd when they debuted at the Black Fair (you can see my post HERE), but with 5 wear styles & 40 colors in each of the 6 color HUDs, they work perfectly with so many outfits, I couldn’t resist blogging them again. (This time, I’m wearing them in the Baph style.)
