God with human and mummy appearance and head of baboon.

It does not take animal aspect as an independent entity. Integrated to the set of the " Four Sons of Horus " and as representative of one of the points of the compass, it can always present the form of a bird or snake that four heads go out along his body, related to funeral assignments.

As its own name indicates, the " Four Sons of Horus " have direct bearing on Horus; as such, they assist and protect Osiris and, for extension, to the deceased and to his guts. Hapy is the protector and guard of the lungs.

Four Sons of Horus and with them Hapy, are the representatives of Four Winds and of four points of the compass, being Hapy the delegate of the North.

He appears along with his brothers on a lotus flower opened opposite to Osiris, in the " Room of Two Truths " or " Room of the Bore of soul".
