The Amulet of the Frog

The Amulet of the Frog
The Amulet of the Frog is a symbolization of generation, rebirth, and fertility in ancient Egyptian lore, the  frog goddess was Heket, depicted as a creature or as frog-headed woman. The four male gods of the Ogdoad of Hermopolis were also frog-headed, a symbolisation of their role in the greening and impregnation  of  Egypt at the creation and at the annual flood periods. Frog amulets were  used  to  check rebirth for the cold in the tomb.
