	Remarkably little is known of Anuket, her followers, or the details of their beliefs. The inscription on the Obelisk of Seven Hungers would indicate she was concerned with water or the [[Aur River]], an idea reinforced by how the Obelisk connects her to [[Qadesh]] and [[Sokar]]. The story recounted on the Obelisk tells of how the river stopped flooding during the [[Scouring]], after which the priests of these three deities warned the Khapeshan king that he must restore their temples and give offerings to bring the water forth once more. A temple to Anuket evidently once existed near [[~~Saqqara~~]], as mentioned on the Obelisk, yet no other evidence of it has ever been located.

	It is unknown why Anuket passed into history while the rest of the [[Khapeshan pantheon]] survived to the modern day. Certainly the history of her faith is remarkably atypical compared to the legacy and continuity of the other gods of the desert kingdom.
