They say Anpu has a daughter, but I haven't seen any mention anywhere of who her mother is. Does anyone know?(5 comments \| Leave a comment)From:phoenix_falls Date:September 5th, 2006 06:52 am (UTC) (Link)I haven't seen anything about Her Mother either, but my opinion is that her mother is probably Ma'at, since traditionally, Kebechet was sometimes depicted as an ostrich or an ostrich feather which was indicative of Ma'at.(Reply) (Thread) From:jayed Date:September 5th, 2006 07:10 am (UTC) (Link)The goddess Anput (Input, Inpewt, Yineput) - ynpwt inpwt - was the goddess of the 17th Nome of Upper Egypt, who was depicted as a woman wearing the jackal standard of her nome or a woman with the head of a jackal.

Otherwise my information on her is very vague, but I'd LOVE to learn more.(Reply) (Thread)
