Serket

Serket is a minor goddess of scorpions and other venomous things. People call to her if they get hurt by something venomous. She is depicted as a woman with a scorpion on her head primed and ready to strike. She protected the throne of the king in the form of a scorpion. In a select few other interpretations she has been depicted as a woman, holding knives, with the head of a lioness and a crocodile head coming out of her back. She is the mother to a god named Nehebu-Kau, and she is also seen as a minor death goddess who guards the canopic jars or the god Qebehsenuef.
