+<p>En la Mitología Egipcia, Khnum (también pronunciado como Chnum, Knum, o Khnemu) fué una de las primeras deidades Egipcias, originalmente el Dios de la fuente del Río Nilo. Dado que la inundación anual del Nilo traía consigo limo y arcilla, y sus aguas traían vida a sus alrededores, el fué considerado como el creador de los cuerpos de los niños humanos, los cuales moldeó en una rueda de alfarero, con arcilla, y depositó en los vientres de sus madres. Más tarde fué descrito como habiendo moldeado a las otras deidades, y teniente de los títulos de Alfarero Divino y Señor de las creaciones.</p>

El nombre de Khnum es derivado de su asociación secundaria, – significa constructor. Sin embargo, la posición temprana de Khnum como 'moldeador' de las otras deidades, lo lleva a ser identificado como Ra, o más específicamente como el Ba de Ra. Ya que Ba también significaba carnero, se llegó a creer que él tenía cabeza de carnero, pero realmente tenía cabeza de toro.</p>
