Hi Ian and Pete,

I was talking to a guy the other day who was says sometimes whats in the original text is different to the interpretation. He reckons it might not necessarily mean "horizon" but "spirit land", i.e. not akhet with sun-disc between two peaks, but crested-ibis and land sign. Mark Lehner discusses the matter in,'The Complete Pyramid'. I've not read this so wonder if you can comment on that maybe?
