Talk:Banebdjedet

Untitled
"In a chapel in the Ramesseum, a stela records how the god Ptah took the form of Banebdjedet, in view of his virility, in order to have union with the woman who would conceive Rameses II." – Wilkinson writes that it was Ramesses III, and Medinet Habu. – Alensha   talk  17:42, 2 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Yes he does, but I've checked the citation for the Ramesseum claim, and it checks out. Medinet Habu was pretty similar to the Ramesseum, and Ramesses III imitated Ramesses II in a lot of ways, so I'd guess that both sources are correct. A. Parrot (talk) 01:23, 4 February 2014 (UTC)

He looks more like a Goat then a Ram to me.

 * Apparently it's because Banebdjedet, like most other Egyptian ram deities, is depicted as Ovis longipes palaeoaegyptiacus. A. Parrot (talk) 01:15, 22 January 2019 (UTC)


 * Well, when dealing with an Anime not even known outside Egypt, and wasn't around when modern Zoological Classifications systems were developed, how does one even decide it's relationship to the difference between a Ram and a Goat?--JaredMithrandir (talk) 01:36, 22 January 2019 (UTC)


 * I don't know, but I'm not exactly an expert on ruminant identification. The sources cited in the article on Ovis longipes look solid, and a source I have (Reading Egyptian Art by Richard H. Wilkinson, 1993) supports what it says. A. Parrot (talk) 01:58, 22 January 2019 (UTC)
