Let me share with you a set of pictures of the ancient Egyptian god Anuket.Anuket is depicted as a woman wearing a feather headdress (a detail that most Egyptologists believe originated in Nubia).Her sacred object is an antelope, and her function is to divert river water and make the earth fertile.It is mainly worshiped on Elephant Island and Sehel Island, and forms a triple deity with Knum and Satit.
