Iah

Iah ( Egyptian: Jˁḥ, transliterated as Yah, Jah, Jah(w), Joh or Aah ) is a god of the moon in ancient Egyptian religion. His name simply means moon. By the New Kingdom he was less prominent as a moon deity than the other gods with lunar connections, Thoth and Khonsu. As a result of the functional connection between them he could be identified with either of those deities.

He was sometimes considered an adult form of Khonsu and was increasingly absorbed by him. Iah continued to appear in amulets and occasional other representations, similar to Khonsu in appearance, with the same lunar symbols on his head and occasionally the same tight garments. He differed in usually wearing a full wig instead of a child's sidelock, and sometimes an Atef crown topped by another symbol. As time went on, Iah also became Iah-Djuhty, meaning "god of the new moon."

Iah was also assimilated with Osiris, god of the dead, perhaps because, in its monthly cycle, the moon appears to renew itself. Iah also seems to have assumed the lunar aspect of Thoth, god of knowledge, writing and calculation; the segments of the moon were used as fractional symbols in writing.

    Iah (also Yah, Jah or Aah = "Moon") was a king's mother and queen of ancient Egypt c. 2060 BC, during the mid 11th Dynasty (21341991 BC). Daughter of a pharaoh, possibly Intef II, and mother of pharaoh Mentuhotep II she was the queen of Intef III.

    Biography

    Little is known for certain about the origin and life of Iah. She bore the title of king's daughter (S3t-nswt), which indicates that she was the daughter of pharaoh, possibly Intef II, but this remains conjectural. Her name is a reference to Iah, an Egyptian Moon god.

    Iah was married to pharaoh Intef III, although the important title king's wife is not attested for her. Their children were:

  • Pharaoh Nebhepetre Mentuhotep II (2046 BC – 1995 BC)
  • Queen Neferu II
  • As the mother of Mentuhotep II and Neferu II, Iah was both the maternal and paternal grandmother of king Mentuhotep III.

    Iah appears on a rock relief in the Shatt er-Rigal where she is shown standing behind Mentuhotep II. In front of both of them are depicted the beloved god's father, son of Ra, Intef and the royal sealer and treasurer Kheti. She also appears in the tomb TT319 of her daughter Neferu II. She is named on relief fragments of Neferu's tomb and on model coffins, where it is written: "Neferu, born of Iah".

    Steady Risin'

    by: Yo Yo

    [Chorus]
    I been on the low for a while, but now
    It's time to rise up, so open your eyes up
    And recognise the real, that's all up in your grill
    Yo Yo gots the flow, y'all niggas know the deal [x2]
    [Verse 1]
    It's a must that I thrush world plush a little lush money
    Green like sus-money, cream and takes the bus
    International connects, plus discuss the hush-hush
    West-side, Who Ride?, World-wide, Bomb-rush
    So what's the deal with all this 'keep it real' rapping
    I'm still flexing skills, collect my mill and keep stepping
    Pack a weapon close if I ghost a nigga then I'm Swayze
    Cause rapping pays me to live shady, wilin' crazy
    Just the killer Cali lady, snatch your fuckin lady
    If rappers be board, you niggas still couldn't play me
    So save the drama for your mommy and your poppy
    When I hit the track up a mad truck couldn't stop me
    To all you, Versace wearin' Donna Karen tricks
    Starin' all up in my grill, I'ma let you know the deal
    I'm still droppin' bombs like Sudam Husain
    Who-Bang, like Mack-10, sip gin and kick game
    [Chorus]
    [Verse 2]
    I've been on the low, but now it's time to show and prove
    Turn my dues to power moves, I got 'em winning never lose
    So whoever snooze, on the Y-O-Y-O better buy you
    A superior plot, I'm blowin' up the spot
    Hip-Hop's the mil-ticket, and I still kick it
    For my niggas in the hood, best believe it's all good
    My game is understood from LA to Amsterdam
    So I organise my fam' and rock the world like Pearl Jam
    This girl's a thriller, got more game than Shirl' Miller
    And as this world turns, my main concern is earnin' scrilla
    I'm realer than most don't test this west coast fever
    On your reciever, with more respect than Aretha
    Franklin, got mo' bankin', drudge and wheezy
    I'm movin on up so give it up this shit ain't easy
    But see I, step to my B I and be fly
    Like a sparrow, but their all stackin' up 'Genaro
    [Chorus]
    [Verse 3]
    You best rocognise game about the things that I told
    Everything that glitters an't gold, but this mic I hold
    Is worth about a million, really don't peep the flow
    I generate more pace than Wall Street when I blow
    You know this how we do, in killer Cali rule
    Mic check, one two, when the Yo be comin' through
    With the lyrical, verbal miracle, oh Jesus
    I say what I want and I do as I pleases
    For any nigga step in my direction and question
    My affection for this game that I be flexin'
    The same as chin-checkin, I'll be right there like demolition
    I'm on a mission, so just listen
    I'm spittin', the game related, that keep you faded
    Intoxicated, then your pocket get raided
    I made it, for them G's and Ladies
    Beneath the palm trees just shootin' the breeze
    [Chorus]
    That's the way, uh uh, we like it
    Bad as I wanna be, you don't wanna step to me
    That's the way, uh uh, we like it
    Steady Risin' to the top, movin' up another notch [x2]
