Ansāb al-ʻArab al-qudamāʼ
The Nile nation whose lion-shaped goddess, royal war iconography and divine triads Zaydan uses to argue that several Arab idols were Egyptian in origin.
Now we have found among the gods of the Egyptians an idol in the form of a lion or a lioness which they call “Tafnūt”;
Examples of these triads are many among the ancient Egyptians, the Chaldeans and others.
