Apep (Ancient Egyptian: ꜥꜣpp), also known as Aphoph (/ə.ˈfɒf/, Coptic: Ⲁⲫⲱⲫ, romanized: Aphōph)[1] or Apophis (/ə.ˈpɒ.fɪs/; Ancient Greek: Ἄποφις, romanized: Ápophis), is the ancient Egyptian deity who embodied darkness and disorder, and was thus the opponent of light and Maat (order/truth). Ra was the bringer of light and hence the biggest opposer of Apep.
