1458	ENT_EGY_HORUS	received_as	ENT_SYN_HARPOCRATES	high	Harpocrates (Greek Harpokrates, "Horus the Child") is the direct Hellenistic reception of the child Horus (Hor-pa-khered), depicted in Egyptian art as an infant with finger to lips — a conventional Egyptian gesture indicating childhood. Greek visitors reinterpreted this as a gesture of silence, making Harpocrates the Greco-Egyptian god of silence and keeper of divine secrets. The figure appears extensively in Ptolemaic and Roman-period material culture; Plutarch (De Is. ch. 19) discusses him. The Horus-child-on-Isis's-lap iconography became the direct visual model for later representations of the Christ-child with the Virgin.	SRC_PLUTARCH_ISIS_OSIRIS	reviewed	PER_GRK_HELLENISTIC
