Hello, do you do research on Mafdet / Mafedet / Maftet? and after the Egyptian gods, do you think to research other gods? thank you for making it on Wepwawet! good luck! take care, Siel Obscur
I haven’t found much on Mafdet. Have you been to the Henadology website? There is a great article on Mafdet and other gods there.
I’ve done research on other gods. If you look at my books page, you’ll find a list of anthologies I’ve contributed to. Some of them I’ve contributed an epithets list for such as First and Last (Hestia anthology) and Shield of Wisdom (a forthcoming Athena anthology).
There are many different calendars from ancient Egypt. Each temple, each location, and different time periods had their own holidays. Aset’s birthday was celebrated on different days, dates, and times. Epagomenal Day 4 is Aset’s birthday on many calendars, but its date depends on when you start the New Year. The ancient Egyptian start of the New Year varied by time period (if you start it in June, August or September) determines on when the holiday falls. In the Roman Period Temple of Soknopaiou Nesos, there is a festival called Birthday of Aset, with the Beautiful Throne that lasts 19 days (on my calendar it takes places in June-July). There are other Roman area Birthday of Aset holidays which were on different dates as well. I’m not remembering December 30th off the top of my head.
you miss spelled a word in the paragraph about Hades about Athena’s Relationship with the gods
