Inumama - Goddess of the Sky
Picture information
Description:
Nut - The Goddess of the Sky
She is considered one of the oldest deities in Egyptian culture. She is the companion of Geb, the God of the Earth. A sacred symbol for Nut was a ladder, which her husband, Geb, used to climb into the sky for her company. She protected the dead after they entered the afterlife. She is normally pictured as a woman arched on her toes and fingertips over the god Geb, who lays beneath her.
