After leaving the queen, Amen calls on Khnum or Khnemu, the flat-horned ram-god, who in texts of all periods is referred to as the "builder" of gods and men; and he instructs him to create the body of his future daughter and that of her Ka, or "double", which would be united to her from birth. See Naville, Deir el-Bahari, Pt. II, pp. 12 ff., plates xlvi ff. See Budge, Gods of the Egyptians, Vol.
The ram, therefore, was killed, not as a sacrifice to Ammon, but as the god himself, whose identity with the beast is plainly shown by the custom of clothing his image in the skin of the slain ram. The reason for thus killing the ram-god annually may have been that which I have assigned for the general custom of killing a god and for the special Californian custom of killing the divine buzzard.
