Dalam mitologi Mesir, Ogdoad (Yunani Kuno: ὀγδοάς "Delapan lipatan"; Mesir Kuno: ḫmnyw, sebuah nisba jamak dari ḫmnw "delapan") adalah delapan dewa primordial yang disembah di Hermopolis.
Rujukan tertentu terawal untuk Ogdoad berasal dari Dinasti Kedelapan Belas, dalam inskripsi dedikasi karya Hatshepsut di Speos Artemidos.[1]
Teks-teks Periode Akhir menyebut mereka memiliki kepala katak (laki-laki) dan ular (perempuan), dan mereka seringkali digambarkan dalam cara ini dalam relief dinasti terakhir, Kerajaan Ptolemaik.[2]
