sannion is looking for music relevant to Greco-Roman/Egyptian deities. Some of you can surely help him out. I personally want to see what people come up with. I feel like I should have answers, but I am so immersed in Nordic music lately that seems unlikely. Also, I'd be very curious to see if anyone comes up with anything Anubis-related that isn't a crappy goth tune (not that I object to crappy goth tunes, quite the contrary, but I'm familiar enough not to be curious).

Quasi-randomly, this prompts me to ask, what deity-type statues or things do you all have in your houses. It occurs to me that Patty and I have a Ganesha, an Anubis (these first two are both mine, and I realize, in a weird, inappropriate math way that Ganesh + Anubis sort of equals Hermes, who I've had an affinity for since I was really small), and (I think) at least two Buddhas (one is hers, and one is my Mizuko Jizo).

First off, thanks for linking the music project! I'm the one doing the assembling, and I appreciate the assistance.

We have a bunch of idols, all over the house. :) Athena (amazing olive-wood owl from Israel), Bast, a replica Greek oil lamp for Hestia, a really sexy statue of Eros and Psyche, Libertas, Quan Yin, the Buddha, and a cross-stitch I did of Isis, Osiris and Horus (that's what I can think of right now)... we have some other images floating around, pictures of Dionysos, Hades and Persephone, and such. And, of course, the Playmobil shrine that my 7-year-old and I are slowly assembling... :)
