DID YOU KNOW? Neith Was Worshipped at Esna

The creative goddess Neith actually shared with Khnum the great temple at Esna. In the Latopolite district's massive sanctuary, we learn that Neith helped Khnum create the world and then turned herself into a fish before swimming north to her primary cult-center at Sais, in the Nile delta.
To learn more about Neith and all the great Egyptian goddesses, order The Intrepid Wanderer's Guide to Ancient Egyptian Goddesses from Amazon or your favorite retailer. Click on the appropriate book cover-link to the right.
