That’s right homies, Thoth is in the house! With the head of an ibis, and a super-cool name, he is One, self-begotten, and self-produced (i.e., no mother or father, he made himself).
He not only is credited with inventing the 365-day calendar, Wikipedia states that the ancient Egyptians believed him to be the author of all works of science, religion, philosophy, and magic.
The Greeks further declared him the inventor of astronomy, astrology, the science of numbers, mathematics, geometry, land surveying, medicine, botany, theology, civilized government, the alphabet, reading, writing, and oratory.
They also gave him props as the true author of every work of every branch of knowledge, human and divine.
He gets everything!
