This paper deals with one of the mysterious and rare names, which appeared in the Pyramid text, a name HqA-s. The researchers and the ancient Egyptian language dictionaries presented many opinions about what this name means and what its demonstrative represents.

Whether this name refers to one of the ancient deities? Or it refers to a piece of royal clothes? Or represents one of the sacred, royal badges or decoration? Moreover this paper aims at identifying its demonstrative and correct transliterate of this name.
