The Cult of Geheb is the organised worship of the god Geheb.

Geheb is the patron diety of Ka-Sabar and many of its kings were powerful warriors and generals as true sons of their god. [1a]

Notable

Sacrifices

Bullocks are brought to his altar to be sacrifced and the resulting life blood passed amongst assembled lords in bronze bowls. [1b]

Ushabti

The Ushabti of Geheb in Ka-Sabar were tawny giants with lambent eyes and cat like fangs but in Mahrak they became even more powerful hybrids of man and lion.. [1e]

Quotes

Darkness comes and darkness goes, but the great earth is not moved. Stand fast, like the mountains, and Geheb will bless you with the strength to defeat your enemies.

~ Hashepra.[1d]
