The hieroglyph says “Sobek.” God of the Nile, or Protector of the Nile, associated with fertility, whose temples during the Twelfth Dynasty revived the declining Nile crocodile population. He also mythically helped Isis find Osiris’s severed body part in the Nile after Set chopped him up and scattered the bits. (I think I remember which part specifically but I’m not sure!! One of the important ones) Nile crocodiles fiercely and aggressively protect their young, and that’s where the mythology comes from. End text wall~ Thanks for reading~
