The extremely complex ancient Egyptian religion is really a melting-pot of hundreds of local tribal gods dating from before the Unification of Egypt. This resulted in many different gods and goddesses having the same or similar functions.

The goddess Nephthys (hieroglyphs: nbht) was connected with the moon and night, but also with justice, the weather and water.

The goddess Tefnut (hieroglyphs: tfnt) was another moon goddess who was also connected with justice, order, time, water, the weather (sound familiar?).

Isis was also considered a moon goddess, among many other roles.

There were also a number of gods associated with the moon.
