The '''Horites''' were the Horus King Pharaohs descended from Horus son (the elder) one of the sons of Lotan/Apep/Geb son of Shu/Seir. Horus (the elder) was one of the Other sons of Geb (Apep/Lotan) including along with Set, included Osiris and Osiris. Apep attacked El-Ra, but was defeated by Set the servant of El-Ra. Horites were originally hostile towards El-Ra (and therefore their Set brethren too) but were eventually conquered by the Edomites. Apep attacked El-Ra, but was defeated by Set. In time Horus and Osiris took over the role of Ra, and Set came to be unfairly associated with the Apep. Akhenaten tried to restore the ancient religion of El-Ra but failed.
