“Amun (the bull) and Amunet (the cow) are primordial creators, preceding and forming the Ogdoad, which consists of four bulls (Montus) and four cows (Raettawys). Amun and Amunet's union symbolizes the creation of the sun, a key cosmogonic event. This is reflected in Amenope's epithet, "eldest of the primeval ones," and Amunet's designation as "the Great Cow that gave birth to Ra"”
