Setian

The Oryx was one of the Setian animals and it was perhaps during the wars of the “Followers of Horus” (i.e., the Falcon people) with the Set clan, towards the end of the IInd Dynasty, that this conquest took place.

Under the New Empire Rameses II, whose father was named Seti, the ‘Setian’, did not hesitate to proclaim himself the ‘Beloved of Set’.

At any rate, Muller goes on to note that when the myth was related to the sea, the latter changed from Osirian to Anti-Osirian, i.e. “Setian” or, Typhonic, to use the later Greek form.
