Aqedis

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Aqedis is a Nubian god.

Aqedis apparently only had local significance in Naqa . He is depicted on the side wall of the lion temple in Naqa, built by Natakamani, together with Apedemak , Horus and Amun . Its iconography is similar to that of Ptah . He also appears on the fragments of a kiosk found in the Temple of Tabo .
