The name Herishef is a variant of Harsaphes or Heryshaf, the Egyptian ram-headed god who was also identified with Ra and Osiris. The name Herishef seems to be used more on French and Spanish websites: http://mythologica.fr/egypte/herishef.htm http://es.wikipedia.org/wiki/Herishef The English version of Wikipedia lists this deity as Heryshaf, but the names Harsaphes and Herishef seem to be more common. (From the number of hits returned from a Google search, anyway.)

What has the body of a man and head of a ram from Egyptian mythology?
There are several: 'Arsaphes' (Herishef), 'Kherty','Khnum','banebdjedet','Amon'. There are also variants of 'Re' and 'Horus' with the head of a Ram. They are all the ones that I can think of off the top of my head. . :)
