 Ptah (Ancient Egyptian ''ptḥ'', Ancient Greek ''Φθά'') is an ancient Egyptian deity, regarded as the creator god and a patron deity of craftsmen and architects. In ancient Egypt's cosmology, Ptah was the husband of Sekhmet and the father of Nefertem, and together they formed the triad of the city of Memphis, a very important city in ancient Egypt; he was also regarded as the father of the sage Imhotep. He is generally represented in the guise of a man with green skin wearing the 'divine beard', a skull cap and a tightly-fitted white shroud, while holding a sceptre that combines the stylized animal head of the ''was'', the symbol of life known as the ''ankh'', and the pillar of stability known as the ''djed''.
-Like many deities of ancient Egypt, Ptah takes many forms, including the appearances of ancient deities of the Memphite region known as Sokar and Tatenen: his form of Sokar has a similar white robe and wears the Atef crown, an attribute of [[Osiris]], and represents the patron deity of the sites where the royal pyramids were built. His Tatenen form is represented by a young and vigorous man wearing a crown with two tall plumes that surround the solar disk; this form embodies the underground fire that rumbles and raises the earth, as well as resembling Ptah's sacred animal in the bull. Ptah was particularly revered by metalworkers and blacksmiths, but he was equally feared due to causing earthquakes and tremors of the Earth's crust.
