Mehit (or Menhit), is the Egyptian/Nubian goddess of the full moon, war, protection, and the restoration of cosmic order.
Her name means "The Full One," symbolizing the full moon, and she's central to the "Distant Goddess" myth where Onuris (or Anhur) retrieves her from Nubia, representing the return of the Eye of Ra and cosmic order.
