In a third story, The Contendings of Horus and Set (an Egyptian manuscript from c. 1190-1077 BCE), when Horus and Set are fighting for the right to rule, Thoth is said to have been created from the semen of Horus which was accidentally swallowed by Set during the struggle.

When was Thoth created?

Thoth can thus be regarded as an important Egyptian god since the earliest times. Worship of Thoth began in Lower Egypt most likely in the Pre-Dynastic Period, which was around 6000 BCE to 3150 BCE. His worship continued through the Ptolemaic Period, the last dynastic age of Ancient Egypt from around 323 BCE to 30 BCE.

Did Thoth write the Bible?

The book, written by Thoth, is said to contain two spells, one of which allows the reader to understand the speech of animals, and one of which allows the reader to perceive the gods themselves. The story reflects the Egyptian belief that the gods' knowledge is not meant for humans to possess.
