The first book to examine the feminine aspect of Egyptian religion sheds new light on the important role of the goddess Hathor-Sekhmet.

Drawing from temple art, myths, rituals, and poetry, Hathor Rising examines the feminine aspect of the complex Egyptian pantheon, particularly the fiery goddess, Hathor-Sekhmet. The book sheds much new light on ancient Egypt and provides a powerful new perspective on women's theology.
