Meaning & History

Iunit of Armant means "she of Armant". Armant, also known as Hermonthis, is a town in Egypt whose name is derived from MONTU. In Egyptian mythology she was a minor goddess and a consort of Montu.
There is, however, another Iunit who was a minor goddess of death. She is mentioned in the Ancient Egyptian Book of the Dead and seems to have had a close connection to IAH. It is uncertain whether she is identical with Iunit of Armant.
