Heret-Kau

Heret-Kau is a little-known goddess whose name means 'she who is over the spirits', Heret-Kau seems to have been associated with the afterlife, but her exact nature and roles are uncertain. She was invoked in the foundation rituals of certain Lower Egyptian temples along with Neith and Isis, and a priest of the goddess is attested in Old Kingdom times, though little more is known of her cult.
