Chapter 279 The Lion Goddess and the Queen of Gods

As a Semitic goddess originating from the Phoenician region, Aphrodite can absorb new concepts from both the Mesopotamia and Egypt. Even Luo Yin did not know about Aphrodite. How many known and unknown godheads are there.

But borrowed concepts are always borrowed. In Luo Yin's eyes, the essence of Aphrodite is just the Semitic queen of gods, goddess of war, and goddess of virginity.

"Aphrodite..."

Holding Aphrodite in his arms, Luo Yin comforted her with a gentle smile.

"Although you are very important to me, Ankhesenamun may be the Queen of the Gods and the Sun Goddess in Egypt, and one of the women who belongs to me. You don't want me to deliberately neglect you because of other women. Bar?"

"I understand what you mean! If I don't want you to neglect me because of other women, I shouldn't stop you from approaching Ankhesenamon."

Aphrodite turned around in Luo Yin's arms and said.

"I won't stop you, but I won't provide you with any help either. If you want to know the identity of Ankhesenamon, just look for clues yourself!"

After saying that, Aphrodite wanted to leave.

Luo Yin immediately hugged Aphrodite's body tightly, leaned into her ear and whispered.

"Take me to the temple of Astarte and let's do some fun things. Don't you want to drain me of all my troubles and make me less interested in other women?"

Aphrodite was silent for a moment, and finally took Luo Yin to fly to a certain Astarte temple.

The Temple of Amun in the Royal Palace.

Ankhesenamun came to the temple alone, and was led by the priests to the throne where the statue of Amun was located.

"The great Ankhesenamun - the daughter of the god with the name of Amun in her name!"

Standing behind Ankhesenamon, the priest said expressionlessly.

"Now I want to ask you on behalf of God Amun, do you want to drive God Amun off the throne of the God of National Protection like your father?"

Ankhesenamon shook his head and said.

"Since my father's plan to promote the god Aten to replace the god Amun failed, I certainly will not repeat the same mistake as my father. Moreover, the pharaoh family and the god Amun are interdependent, and weakening the god Amun is equivalent to weakening the pharaoh family. ”

After hearing Ankhesenamon's answer, the priest nodded with satisfaction.

"You are as wise as a goddess! God Amun and the Pharaoh family are indeed interdependent. As long as the Pharaoh family continues to support God Amun, Amun God and our Amun Temple will also support the Pharaoh family. Now your husband in Xitai Not only does he want to take away your Pharaoh's power, but he also wants to depose the god Amun. Perhaps his ultimate goal is to let the Sun Queen of the Xitai people rule Egypt. Are you willing to join forces with the god Amun to deal with this foreign invader? ?”

Ankhesenamon hesitated for a moment, then finally nodded and said.

"I have no reason to let the royal power of the Pharaoh family be taken away by outsiders! Not Ayin II, who is from southern Egypt with me, nor the foreigner who became my husband."

After being busy in the Temple of Astartes until late at night, and letting Aphrodite get rid of her status as a virgin and being satisfied, Luo Yin returned to the palace.

The queen's chamber.

Luo Yin entered here quietly and saw Ankhesenamon lying on a big bed and already asleep. On both sides of the big bed, there were palace maids kneeling and dozing.

Walking to the big bed with silent steps, Luo Yin stretched out his right hand and touched Ankhesenamon's sleeping face, guessing her identity in his heart.

The identities of the three lion goddesses Bastet, Sekhmet, and Hathor are seriously confused because of the serious confusion about the identity of the sun goddess, so it is not easy to determine which lion goddess Ankhesenamon is the incarnation of.

Bastetto was the former queen of the gods in Northern Egypt, and Ankhsenamun was a member of the Pharaoh family of southern Egypt. Therefore, it can be determined first that Ankhsenamun should not be the incarnation of Bastetto, the lion goddess of Northern Egypt.

In addition to Bastet, there was another lion goddess in Northern Egypt, Tefnut.

As the lion goddess, Tefnut is of course also a sun goddess.

After the rise of the male sun god in northern Egypt, Bastetto and Tefnut became the eyes of the male sun god.

After being deprived of her identity as the Sun Goddess, Tefnut still retained her identities as the Goddess of Fire and the Goddess of Rain.

Ankhesenamon cannot be the incarnation of Bastetto, and certainly not the incarnation of Tefnut.

Excluding the two lion goddesses of northern Egypt, Ankhsenamun's true identity is obviously among the two lion goddesses of southern Egypt, Sekhmet and Hathor.

And compared to the lion goddesses of northern Egypt, the two lion goddesses of southern Egypt have a deeper connection with Aphrodite.

Aphrodite's deity as the goddess of love and beauty is derived from Hathor, the lion goddess of southern Egypt.

The wife of Hephaestus, the god of fire and the nemesis of the underworld - most likely derived from the southern Egyptian lion goddess Sekhmet.

Because in Egyptian mythology, after the decline of Sekhmet, the sun goddess and queen of the gods, she was set to be the wife of Ptah, the god of fire and craftsmen, the patron saint of Memphis.

Ptah, the Egyptian god of fire and craftsmanship, was probably the prototype of Hephaestus, the god of fire.

It is precisely because in Egyptian mythology, Sekhmet, who is confused with Aphrodite, is the wife of Ptah, the prototype of the fire god Hephaestus.

That's why in Greek mythology, Aphrodite became the wife of Hephaestus.

Just when Luo Yin was thinking about which one of Sekhmet and Hathor was more likely to be the original body of Ankhsenamon, Luo Yin suddenly thought that perhaps Sekhmet and Hathor were both the original bodies of Ankhsenamon.

Because the two lion goddesses of South Egypt, Sekhmet and Hathor, may have originated from the same goddess, but evolved into two goddesses because they were worshipped by different city-states.

Just like Circe, the sun goddess on the east coast of the Black Sea, and the sun queen of the Hittite Empire, both originated from the sun goddesses worshipped by nomads in the north of the Caucasus Mountains.

"Sekhemet! Hathor! If these two names belong to you, then you are undoubtedly a fallen queen of gods in South Egypt."

At this moment, Ankhsenamon, who was sleeping, noticed Luo Yin's finger and suddenly opened his eyes and woke up.

After the two looked at each other, Luo Yin smiled and said.

"Ankhsenamon, now we are husband and wife, shouldn't you fulfill your wife's responsibilities?"

Ankhsenamon sniffed his nose and frowned.

"You smell like other women. Since you have done good things with other women, didn't she satisfy you?"

"Because my body is as greedy as my heart."

Luo Yin leaned over Anhesenamon and said on her body.

"In order to continue the bloodline of the Pharaoh royal family, you should not refuse me as a husband!"

Anhesenamon raised her hands without hesitation to stop Luo Yin, and then said expressionlessly.

"I will not refuse my husband, but I cannot accept an enemy who competes with me for the power of the Pharaoh."

"Since you say that--"

Luo Yin pressed Anhesenamon's hands next to the pillow and whispered in her ear.

"Then I will turn you into a real woman and teach you how to be a wife."
