The ancient Egyptian goddess Nebt-het (better known by the Greek version of her name, Nephthys) is a goddess in shadows: associated with death, liminality and time, creation and destruction. In Nebt-Het: Lady of the House, Nebt-het’s identity, titles and functions are discussed in detail, as well as Her relationships to the myth cycle of Wesir and Aset (Osiris and Isis), the equally misunderstood deity Set, and Her overlooked connections with the goddesses Nit (Neith), Hethert (Hathor) and Seshat. This special second edition of the original paper adds a comprehensive listing of Nebt-het’s epithets, titles and known divine syncretizations, never before available in English translation.
Dr. Tamara L. Siuda is an Egyptologist and Coptologist with three decades of experience in translating ancient Egyptian texts for modern audiences.
