介绍（中）	古埃及人崇拜蜣螂，将其作为太阳每天通过的象征，当它推动粪球向前时，它反映了在天空中移动的太阳盘。从第一个中间时期到晚期，圣甲虫是小护身符和邮票印章的流行形状，作为创造和复活的象征。早在公元前2世纪初，埃及圣甲虫海豹就传播到黎凡特和克里特岛，很快当地的仿制品开始出现。在这只圣甲虫的下面，一条被唤醒的眼镜蛇（uraeus）被放置在塞斯-巴力神的形象面前，通过他伸出的翅膀、长长的耳朵和鼻子来识别。在他上方是一个太阳盘。这种表现在新王国晚期的邮票印章上非常流行，当时赛斯成为拉美赛德王朝（王朝19-20，约公元前1295-1070年）国王的守护神。赛特与近东神巴力密切相关，成为"混合"神，有翼的赛特-巴力。
介绍（英）	The ancient Egyptians adored the dung beetle as a symbol of the daily passage of the sun, as it pushed the dung ball forward it mirrored the sun disk moving across the sky. From the First Intermediate Period to the Late Period, the scarab was a popular shape for small amulets and stamp seals as a symbol for creation and resurrection. Already in the early 2nd millennium B.C., Egyptian scarab seals spread to the Levant and Crete and soon local imitations began to appear. On the underside of this scarab, an aroused cobra (uraeus) is placed in front of a figure of the god Seth-Baal, identified by his outstretched wing, long ears and snout. Above him is a sun disk. Such representations were very popular on stamp seals during the late New Kingdom, when Seth became a kind of patron deity of the kings of the Ramesside dynasties (Dynasty 19–20, ca. 1295–1070 B.C.). Seth was closely identified with the Near Eastern god Baal, becoming a ‘hybrid’ deity, the winged Seth-Baal.
