Thoth in Egyptian Hieroglyphics.

Thoth


Thoth was a popular Egyptian god represented mostly as a man with the head of an ibis bird or sometimes having the form of a baboon.In Ancient Egyptian the god was actually called Djehouti (Ḏḥwty) .Thoth (Θωθ) is the Greek word for Djehouti.

His name was written in various ways in hieroglyphics.Take a look at the image below.



The snake,the birds,the flamengo and the sitting god-all living things-  are all facing to the left ,so reading from left to write we got:

snake+flax tow+chicken+bread(above)+two dashes+sitting god with bird head=Thoth

or
flamengo+bread+two dashes=Thoth

or
hand+flax tow+chicken+bread+two dashes+flag=Thoth

or
flamengo+bread+two dashes=Thoth
