Ha (mythology)


Ha, in ancient Egyptian religion, was a god of the Western Desert of Egypt. He was associated with the Duat and pictured as a man wearing the symbol for desert hills on his head.
Ha was said to protect Egypt from enemies such as invading ancient Libyans.
The dinosaur Hagryphus was named after Ha; it was discovered in Utah and Ha's association with the western deserts was carried over to the deserts of the Southwestern United States.
