History

"Sekhmet's name means 'powerful', and she was a goddess of war and the heat of the desert. She rose to prominence during the second millennium BCE, when Egypt engaged in many wars extending its domain and was a leading power in the world. The hot wind produced by the desert to the west, which was sometimes called the breath of Sekhmet, became one of many representations of divine force. More practically, projectiles flew faster and harder when the wind was behind them."
