Chons

The Egyptian god of the moon, son of Amun and Mut with whom he forms a triad at Thebes.

As the 'master of time' he is sometimes identified with the god Thoth.

In human form he is depicted a young man in the posture of a mummy with the child's side lock and the curved beard worn by the gods, but also with a full moon and a crescent on his headdress.
