The Ugaritic Great Goddess of life and death, and the Canaanite "Lady of the Mountain". Apart from Anat being virgin, mother and whore, she is also famous as an aggressive and ruthless warrior-goddess wading in the blood of her human victims. Anat was introduced into Egypt by the Hyksos and was there partly identified with Hathor, from whom she acquired her symbolic cow-horns. The Egyptians regarded her, together with Astarte, as daughter of the god Ra (the sun), and Pharaoh Ramses III (ruled 1198-1166 BCE) used both goddesses as divine protectors on his battle-shield. Anat, as a goddess of fertility and sexuality, is sometimes depicted together with the ithyphallic god Min. She is said to have given birth to a wild bull that sprung from the union with her brother and lover, the Ugaritic/Syrian god Baal.

Other names connected with Anat are Avaris and Aphrodite Anaxarete, and she may, perhaps, be the same deity as Anatu (see Ishtar).

"Bloody Mistress": Also known as Anat, She was worshipped throughout Canaan, Syria and Phoenicia. She was a popular Goddess of War and Fertility. She was largely syncretized with Asherah and Astarte (both profiled in this section), and so there is some confusion as to Her myths and relationship to other Deities of the area.
