Harsomtous est la seule divinité qui, à Dendara, soit figurée sous troisformes absolument différentes et cependant complémentaires: serpent, faucon, homme.
Le serpent des origines s'adjoint bientôt le fauconmaître des immensités célestes; également devenu homme, Harsomtousenglobe naturellement la royauté terrestre dans le champ de sasouveraineté.
Le faucon est un incarnation d'Horus, ses yeuxreprésentant le soleil et la lune, il domine le sud et le nord, l'orientet l'occident. À Dendara où est exaltée la primauté féminine, cetteroyauté pluri-millénaire dont atteste le Roi-Serpent passe toutefois audeuxième plan.
Somtous, l'unificateur du pays , apparaît dèsl'Ancien Empire pour présider à cette fusion du Delta et de la Valléequi constituera l'objectif politique récurrent des maîtres du pays duNil. Cependant, sa première représentation humaine n'apparaît que sousMontouhotep, un souverain qui a contribué plus qu'un autre à unir lesDeux Terres.
