Arensnuphis

Arensnuphis (in Egyptian: Iryhemesnefer, ỉrỉ-ḥms-nfr, "the good companion") is a deity from the Kingdom of Kush, first attested at Musawwarat el-Sufra in the 3rd century BC.

His worship spread to the Egyptian-controlled portion of Kush in the Ptolemaic Period (305–30 BC).

His mythological role is unknown; he was depicted as a lion and as a human with a crown of feathers and sometimes a spear.

[1] Arensnuphis was worshipped at Philae, where he was called the "companion" of the Egyptian goddess Isis, as well as at Dendur.
