In Egyptian mythology, the god of the sky is Nut. She is often depicted as a woman arched over the earth, with her body covered in stars. As the goddess of the sky, Nut is associated with the heavens, cosmic order, and the celestial bodies. She was believed to swallow the sun at dusk and give birth to it at dawn. Nut played a crucial role in the creation myth and the cycle of life, embodying both the physical sky and the spiritual realm of the cosmos.
