Totemic Form Cow or Pig About Her Cult Cult Center: No known temples Because Nut was regarded to be a cosmic deity, she wasn't worshiped as a "person" the way other goddesses were. Legends Myths identify Nut as the mother of Osiris, Isis, Nephthys, Horus the Elder, and Set. Nut gave birth to the sun every day and swallowed him every night. In this way, she controlled the passing of time. Ra asked Nut to raise him into the heavens to remove him from the world, which he found distasteful. Carrying him on her back, Nut rose upward, but the higher she reached, the dizzier she became. She would have crashed to the ground if four gods had not steadied her legs and Shu held up her belly. These gods became the four pillars of the sky, and Nut's body became the firmament, to which Ra attached the stars. |
