Thoth (/θoʊθ, toʊt/; from Koinē Greek: Θώθ thṓth, borrowed from Coptic: Ⲑⲱⲟⲩⲧ, the reflex of Ancient Egyptian: ḏḥwtj "[He] is like the Ibis") is an ancient Egyptian deity. In art, he was often depicted as a man with the head of an ibis or a baboon, animals sacred to him.
The Greeks conflated Thoth with Hermes because they share some similarities — they're both gods associated with language and the written word, and both have a deep association with magic. The Egyptian city “Hermopolis” is called that in Greek, because it was the center of Thoth's cult.
that's interesting
History is so fascinating! and often more "His Story" than "History" I find.
