Sobek was an ancient god of crocodiles. The people of Egypt worshiped him to gain his protection and strength, or reviled him and killed the crocodiles of the area because of the evil that they could do. To his worshipers, he was a god who created the Nile, a god of fertility and rebirth, and the symbolic strength of the ruler of Egypt. Sobek's temples are found scattered throughout Egypt. |
