Seth was a Goa'uld who opposed the system lords and tried to rise up
and overthrow them. When he failed, he fled, and when the system lords
and the Tokr'a put price on his head, he took shelter among the Tau'ri
and hid out on Earth for two thousand years. He fed his need for worship
by leading various cults with his Goa'uld technology. SG-1 and Jacob identified
the location of Seth when the Tok'ra began to conduct a Goa'uld census.
He was the head of a cult of worshippers in Seattle under the influence
of Goa'uld technology. It was here that the SGC, with the help of Selmac,
tracked him down, and he was killed by Carter using a Goa'uld hand device.
Myths of Seth:
Seth was the Egyptian god of chaos, the slayer of Osiris. He was associated
with foreign lands. Seth was usually depicted in human form with a head
of said to resemble that of an aardvark. He had a curved snout, erect
square- tipped ears and a long forked tail. Sometimes he was represented
in entirely animal form with a body similar to that of a greyhound. He
was said to be the son either of Nut and Geb or of Nut and Ra, and the
brother of Isis, Osiris and Nephthys. Nephthys was sometimes given as
his consort, although he is more commonly associated with the foreign,
Semitic goddesses Astarte and Anat. For a time during the third millenium
BC, Seth replaced Horus as the tutelary deity of the pharaohs. However,
the story of Seth's murder of Osiris and subsequent war with Horus gained
currency and Horus was restored to his original status. The war with Horus
lasted eighty years, during which Seth tore out the left eye his adversary
and Horus tore out Seth's foreleg and testicles. Horus eventually emerged
victorious, and became the rightful ruler of the kingdoms of both Upper
and Lower Egypt. Seth was forced to return the eye of Horus and was either
castrated or, in some versions, killed. In some versions Seth then went
to live with the sun god Re, where he became the voice of the thunder.
In the Book of the Dead Seth was referred to as the "lord of the
northern sky" and held responsible for storms and cloudy weather.
Seth protected Re during his night voyage through the underworld against
Apophis. On the other hand, Seth was a peril for ordinary Egyptians in
the underworld, where he was said seize the souls of the unwary. Among
the animals sacred to Seth were the desert oryx, crocodile, boar, and
the hippopotamus in its aspect as a destroyer of boats and of planted
fields. The pig was a taboo in Seth's cult. The Greeks later equated Seth
with their demon-god Typhon. His other names were: Set, Setekh, Setesh,
Seti, Sutekh, Setech, Sutech.
