Net, or Neth, was an ancient Egyptian goddess associated with hunting, warfare, and protection. She was often depicted as a lioness, symbolizing strength and fierce motherhood. Worshiped in Sais, Net served as a guardian for pharaohs, providing divine support in battles. Net was also linked to fertility and childbirth, highlighting her nurturing side alongside her warrior attributes. Her dual nature emphasized the balance between creation and destruction.
Neith: The Goddess Who Created the World
Neith, or Neith in Amazigh Tanit, is a warlike goddess from Amazigh mythology and ancient Egyptian mythology, although she also appears in other civilizations. Neith is the protector of domestic life and the protector of the western delta. Nit is the great mother who gave birth to Ra and who, according to Pharaonic beliefs: “the first to give birth to everything, before anything was born, but she herself was not born.”
In Pharaonic texts, the goddess (Neith) is called the “Lady of the West” - written Net or Neith - and according to different Pharaonic texts, she represents different goddesses, born in different eras and different stages of the Pharaonic civilization. She is the goddess of war. The shield with two crossed arrows is the sacred physical symbol of the goddess (Neith), and the ancient Amazighs specialized in adorning her by tattooing her on their arms, as shown by the remains of the Pharaonic monuments.
Herodotus mentions that ancient Amazigh women danced in two divided groups and wore warlike attire in a horse dance around Lake Tritonis, which is now in the Gulf of Gabes, Tunisia, probably in honor of the goddess Athena. She is the Athena of Greece according to Plato.
The cult of Neith flourished in later times, starting with the twenty-sixth dynasty called the Sais, and the kings of this dynasty had their origins far away from Libya. The original home of her religion is the city (Sais Sais), the capital of the fourth and fifth provinces in the Delta, and her cult spread after the political unification of the two countries in Upper Egypt as it was spread in the Delta before.
Her characteristics are indistinguishable from those of Isis, and Les Budge says that the origin of this goddess with her main characteristics goes back to the Nile Delta and eastern Libya, and her characteristics are represented in the rituals of procreation and reproduction. Dr. Rajab Abdul Hamid Al-Athram confirms that Neith in the western Nile Delta is the same as Tanit in the Tripolitanian region. (See Lectures on the Ancient History of Libya.) “It was called in ancient times {the one who existed before existence}.
In one of the immortalised texts she describes herself: ‘I am all that has existed - and all that is - and all that will exist - and there is no one who has ever existed to destroy me.’ The Egyptians called Isis the same, but with the name of Athena, who says: ‘I was created from myself: I was created from my own self. The meaning of the word Net or Net in ancient Egyptian is: ‘she or she that exists - or that which exists’ and is also described in Pharaonic texts as ‘hidden’.
