That doesn't make sense. If the subject is Egyptian men having foreign wives light skinned images representing gold has nothing to do with foreign wives. Logically it should be two separate thoughts, not associated with one another and requiring two separate sentences and it would still be inexplicable if these two sentences followed each other. But you are confused That aside you say light skinned images are actually representations of gold. So apparently you don't know what a "primary source" is. Merely showing a yellow figure does not prove it was intended to be gold. That would have to shown in an Egyptian text. - which you have not provided. You have merely copy and pasted a picture and made a claim lacking a primary source , plus you didn't even know the goddesses name until Djehuti mentioned it [/QB][/QUOTE]hathor is called the golden one Hymn from the Sanctuary of the Temple of Dendera "Adoration to You, , [b]the Golden One[/b] Mistress of Iunet, The August and Powerful One in the Sanctuary-of-the-August-One, The One who shines like gold in the Temple-of-the-Sistrum, The Atenet in the Land of Atum! I adore Your Majesty with Your heart's desire. I invoke Your Image with the sacred texts, I exalt Your Ka to the height of heaven, I worship Your Image to the limits of the rays of the Aten. Come in peace, progress in joy, Your heart is sweetened by hearing prayers, Het-Hert the Great, Mistress of Iunet, The Eye of Ra, Mistress of Heaven, Sovereign of All the Gods, The Great Uraeus, the Mistress of the Great Sanctuary, Your beautiful face is satisfied with your beloved son, The King of Upper and Lower Egypt, Master of the Two Lands, eternally." Hathor is depicted on many monuments as golden Egyptians took on foreign Asiatic wives example One of the "Amarna Letters" negotiating a marriage between Amenhotep III and Tushratta's daughter Tadukhipa [IMG]https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/a/aa/AmarnaLetterOfMarriageNegotiation-BritishMuseum-August19-08.jpg/220px-AmarnaLetterOfMarriageNegotiation-BritishMuseum-August19-08.jpg[/IMG] [/QB][/QUOTE]
