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.)
