Meet Geb, Earth made god—the ground beneath Egypt’s story.
This artifact invites you to read the land as a deity: a powerful figure lying along the soil, skin alive with green, the promise of crops.
In the Heliopolitan myth, Geb and the sky goddess Nut were pried apart by Shu, the air; their separation made space for creation.
Here, his body is the field, his ribs the ridges, his laughter the quake.
The goose mark names him Geb.
Priests called pharaohs “heir of Geb,” tying rule to fertile ground.
Pieces like this taught order: earth below, sky above, life between.
Look closer—and the world begins under your feet.
