Mars

    On the Denderah Zodiac, Mars is seen as a male figure with the Egyptian waas-scepter in his left hand, and is standing on the back of Capricornus.
    Since Mars is seen as a netjeru in human form, it represents a spiritual understanding.

    He is seen with a hawk head, with a star above his head and beneath Pegasus and the little bird, which is Cygnus.

    The Coptic called it Melokh, broken, bruised, wring, where as the Egyptians knew it as Khons, wounded (Hercules comparison), smitten.    Other sources have Khem, red, angry (Pan, as wrathful or brown, hairy?).

    Hor-tos, or Hor-tas, means bruising, thresh.
    Another source claims it is called Hor-desher (Heru Descher), meaning "Horus the Red," and also given the name "Horus of the Horizon."

    Mars is seen as: Latin, bruised or breaker.    Ares, is also Mars.

    Hebrew madim (Edom, Hebrew Edowm) and may be compared to Nergal, transplanted from Assyria to Kutha (2 Kings 17:30) as Mars.    Another source shows the Hebrew Madim, made like blood, Arabic sense, Adom, red, blood shedding.

   Arabic Melekh, as compared to the Coptic Melokh.

   In "Hamlet's Mill" by Giorgio de Santillana and Hertha von Dechend, Gambit Inc. 1969 it states in the preface, "Aukele-nui-a-iku" as Mars.

    Persian Azar, blood-flowing, Arabic sense distress.

    One sources claims this is the Egyptian VAR-A-DEG-S.    Where DEG = falcon.

    Others see this as the Sumerian Marduk.
    Other Sumerian names are LUgal.BAnDa which may be a determinative for Mars.    Sumerian Lugalbanda (lugal, great man, king + bànda, young, fierce), implying "The Young/Fierce King", and the father of Gilgamesh.

    Compare Mars to Grand Temple Decan 14 below with its hawk headed figure, which is in line with Denderah Decan 7.

    Mars is seen by some as a "symbol of rationality."

    On the Grand Temple these two deities seen in the image below are located after Cygnus and located above Decan 19.    The figure to the left may be Mars.
