Some thought the pharaoh was like Ra, others said like Horus. The pharaoh was god on Earth and when he died, he went to join the gods in the Underworld.

He was held to be son of Ra.
Ra ruled the other deities of ancient Egypt, like pharaoh ruled his/her people.
Ra was the god of the Sun, not a pharaoh.
The pharaoh was seen as being the living god, such as Ra or Horus.
Ra was not a pharaoh, but a ancient Egyptian god.
The pharaoh is at times called the "son of Ra".
Pharaoh
Pharaoh, originally.
Ra or sometimes spelled as Re, was the Egyptian god of the sun.
Yes, the Ancient Egyptians associated Ra with the ruling Pharaohs. The first pharaoh was Ra, then Osiris, Set, Horus and then the first Human Pharaoh. In some myths, Horus is the son of Ra, rather than Osiris and the ancient Egyptians believed that the ruling pharaoh was a reincarnation of Horus, so yea.............. that's why the Pharaoh is also referred to as ' the sun of Ra' ^ 0 ^...... Glad if I could help.........
Each Pharaoh of ancient Egypt was worshipped as the actual "son" of Ra.
Ra, the sun god.
Osiris and Horus were both gods who were worshiped and decedents of Ra. As well as the pharaoh.
