| Abstract | ||||
| Rait-tawy started as a female counterpart of the Sun god Ra and as an epithet for other goddesses from the time of Queen Hatshepswt then as an independent goddess and a wife of Montu. During the Ramesside period she became associated with other deities related to the sun especially in the Theban nome. Her worship was attested in the great temples of Thebes as well as in the tombs individuals and statues of her priests. In the Late Period she became his wife in a triad worshiped at Medamud and Karnak with Herpare-Khered as a son. | ||||
