2. Connection to Ancient Mythology: The Egyptian God Kek
• Historical Basis: 4chan users discovered that “Kek” (also spelled Kuk or Keku) is the name of a real ancient Egyptian deity from the Ogdoad cosmogony of Hermopolis (dating back to around 2000 BCE). Kek was one of eight primordial gods representing chaos and darkness before creation. Depicted as a frog-headed man (or sometimes a serpent-headed woman in female form, Kauket), Kek symbolized the void of pre-existence, night, and the “bringing of light” from obscurity. The frog imagery tied perfectly into Pepe the Frog memes, leading users to jokingly call Pepe the “modern avatar” of Kek.
