2359	ENT_MER_APEDEMAK	aligned_with	ENT_EGY_SEKHMET	high	Apedemak and Sekhmet are both lion-headed war deities whose core function is military violence and the destruction of enemies in divine service to royal power. Though Apedemak developed independently of Egyptian lion deity traditions (Žabkar demonstrates he is not borrowed from Sekhmet), the functional and iconographic parallel is striking: both are lions who guarantee military victory, both are associated with the pharaoh/king as divine warriors. The alignment is cross-traditional and structural rather than an ancient explicit equation. Žabkar (1975) pp. 35-40; Török (1997) p. 470.	SRC_ZABKAR_APEDEMAK	reviewed	PER_MER_NAPATAN_MEROITIC
