Sekhmet
"Thousands of amulets depict her, either seated or standing and holding a papyrus-shaped scepter. But what comes to mind for most Egyptian art lovers are the hundreds of larger-than-life-sized, granodiorite statues of Sekhmet carved during the 18th dynasty rule of the great pharaoh Amenhotep III. These many statues, now found in museums and archaeological sites, testify to the importance of the fierce goddess."
