Re, Horus or Harakhte – probably Horus, as the figure has NO solar disk.>

"Numerous were the names of the Sun-god. The most general one, Re, denoted the

Sun itself. Horus or Har-akhte originally stood for the god, regarded as a bird of

prey with blazing eyes, while Khepre denoted the god in form of a beetle.

Finally the evening Sun was represented by Atum in the form of an old man.

The Sun god is usually represented with the head of a sparrow-hawk surmounted

by the Sun; this is encircled with its terrible servant, the fire spitting serpent,

who destroys his enemies. For there is no lack of enemies to oppose the progress

of the sun, and one of these, Apophis, the cloud and storm serpent, is the

embodiment of all that is terrible. But they cannot obstruct the progress of the

god, he accomplishes in triumph his journey across the heavens, and in

the evening arrives at the mountain of the West, where he is received by the Goddess

of the West. Here he quits his Morning bark in which he travels by day, and

enters the Evening bark to begin his mighty journey through the under-world."
