Thoth was depicted in several different forms, but he is often seen in human form with the head of an ibis bird. Sometimes he is a baboon, or a complete ibis, or a human scribe sitting cross-legged and writing on papyrus across his lap.

His Egyptian name was written djhwty in hieroglyphs, which means "he of the ibis".
