   Khepri: The Morning Sun
   Khepri personified the rising sun and the concept of spontaneous self-creation. He was iconographically represented as a scarab beetle (Kheper), pushing the solar disk over the horizon, analogous to the beetle rolling its ball of dung.
   $$ \text{Khepri} \equiv \text{Rising Sun} + \text{Dung Beetle} $$
