Ptah is the creator god of Memphis,

the capital of the dual Kemetic for most of its history.

Ptah is symbolized as a mummified man wearing a skullcap

and holding the symbols of life, power, and stability in his arms.

Ptah is sometimes seen as an abstract form of the self-created one.

Ptah represents the sun at the time when it begins to rise above the
