 +In an exploration of the tripartite figure known in Sanchuniathon's works as the three Hermetic entities, or Thoths, we can delineate the following: 
 + 
 +1. The Primordial Hermes is identified with Enoch, who lived during the early third millennium BCE. It is said that he experienced a divine revelation pertaining to celestial mysteries, delivered through angelic entities, preceding the Noachide Deluge. The preservation of this revelation was ensured by the means of inscribed monoliths which survived the cataclysmic flood. 
 + 
 +2. The subsequent Hermes, emerging in the late third millennium BCE, is identified with Cush, a progeny of Ham. While Cush avowed to have accessed the revelations of the Initial Hermes, there are assertions that he in fact distorted the original messages, culminating in a form of pagan idolatry. He is associated with the inception of the Temple Tower, referred to as Eana, located in Shinar or what is now identified as Southern Mesopotamia. Following the dispersion, Cush, accompanied by fellow Hamites, migrated to the Egyptian territories. Historical accounts suggest that Cush, influenced by Luciferian inspirations, prophesied in regions of Ethiopia and Egypt. It is also believed that he held a royal status during the Predynastic era of Egypt. 
 + 
 +3. The Tertiary Hermes is conceptualized as a reincarnation, identified with Damascus-Eliezer, who is either a descendent of Nimrod or Canaan. This figure is also recognized as Hermes Trismegistus or "The Thrice Greatest," and his demise is dated to the early second millennium BCE. Historical narratives convey that Eliezer ventured into Egyptian territories accompanying his master, Abraham. Before his acquaintance with Abraham, and during his idolatrous phase, he expanded upon the teachings of the Second Hermes. His teachings are believed to have influenced the Egyptian Middle Kingdom Pharaoh Sesostris III. It is imperative to note that the predecessors of Sesostris III were acquainted with Joseph and the descendants of Abraham. 
 + 
 +It's also worth noting that beyond these three figures, classical paganism introduces two additional Hermetic entities. The fourth is equated with Moses and, within the Egyptian context, is identified with the deity Thoth, with his demise dated to the mid-second millennium BCE. The fifth is recognized as the Aboriginal monarch, Faunus, who perished in the late second millennium BCE. He is seen as a reincarnated form of Ab Hor (Father Hor, Liber Pater) or the initial Hor-Aha, the successor of Mizraim-Men.
