Not to be confused with
Hu (god). In
Egyptian mythology, Huh (also Heh, Hah) was the deification of
eternity in the
Ogdoad, his name itself meaning endlessness. As a concept, he was
androgynous, his female form being known as Hauhet, which is simply the
feminine form of his name.Like the other concepts in the Ogdoad, his male form was often depicted as a
frog, or a frog-headed human, and his female form as a
snake or snake-headed human. The other common representation depicts him crouching, holding a
palm stem in each hand (or just one), sometimes with a palm stem in his hair, as palm stems represented long life to the Egyptians, the years being represented by
notches on it. Depictions of this form also had a
shen ring at the base of each palm stem, which represented
infinity. Depictions of Huh were also used in
hieroglyphs to represent one
million, which was essentially considered equivalent to infinity in
Egyptian mathematics. Thus this deity is also known as the 'god of millions of years'.
