“She lives from the blood of the damned and from her provisions which these gods give” is the Ancient Egyptian name of a goddess who consumes the unjustified dead. She can be seen in the The Composition of the Hidden Chamber (commonly known as the Amduat), at the end of the Upper Register of the Fifth Hour and in the Catalog as No. 356 in Hornung’s numbering sequence.

In the KV34, the tomb of Thutmosis III, she is depicted schematically as a woman holding the immobilized damned. She will not harm those who belong, however, and states “He who knows her passes by her in peace.”
