Mut/Mewet[credits]

by Mirjam



Mut is the mother of Khonsu and wife of Amun at Thebes. She can be traced back to the Middle Kingdom, but was probably worshipped earlier. She was depicted as a woman with a vulture skin on her head, together with the crown of Upper Egypt.

Mut became the Eye of Re when Amun was in the position of the sun-god, and she was then shown as a lioness. In the New Kingdom she acquired the position as a primeval goddess, called: "Mother of the Sun in Wom He rises".

Main center of worship:

Wast/Thebes

Festivals: (exact dates not historically verified)

12 June - 29th Epipi - Festival of Mut;

Feeding of the Netjers
