Ptah, the ancient Egyptian god, has origins that date back to at least the Early Dynastic Period, around 3100 BCE. This makes him over 5,000 years old in terms of worship and significance within ancient Egyptian mythology. As a creator god and patron of artisans, Ptah was central to the culture and religion of ancient Egypt for millennia. His veneration continued well into the Greco-Roman period, highlighting his enduring legacy.
