Chapter 285: 5. _The Link_ ⁂⁂⁂⁂. Another appellative of the Sun god,

applied to Tmu and Horus in the oldest texts. The notion of ⁂ is that of _concatenation_, _connecting_, _combining_, _fastening_, _binding_, _setting in order together_, σύνταγμα, σύνταξις, as in ⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂ _nectere coronam_. Hence its occurrence in words signifying ‘the vertebral column,’ ‘a row of teeth,’ ‘a chain of hills,’ ‘a body of troops’ (σύνταγμα ἱππέων or πέζων), or their ‘captains,’ literary ‘composition’ ⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂⁂ (Pap. Prisse V, 6), and the seven divine ⁂⁂⁂⁂ οἱ συντάσσοντες, the first authors of artistic composition. See note to
