## Description

One of the oldest deities in the Pyramid Texts and the god of the Nile River and crocodiles was Sobek. He was also Anubis’s brother. He was usually pictured as a full crocodile or a man with the head of a crocodile holding a scepter and an ankh while wearing a crown of feathers. He had the power to grant pharaohs strength and protection. He could also protect people from the dangers of the river, including crocodiles and other dangerous animals. Another thing he could do was bring the flooding that brought water and fertility to the land. (When Sobek was in the Nile one day he saw the body of Osiris who was murdered by set. That day he was extremely hungry so he couldn't resist taking a bite. He had his tongue cut off as punishment and it is why, in Egyptian myths, crocodiles have no tongue.) The words in the parentheses are complete myth.
