Rituals & Beliefs
Min Koptos is the Stygian god of male fertility, bestowing sexual prowess to all men. He is a rain god, the son of Khnemu and Neith. He is a bearded man in a heavily aroused state with his legs close together. He wears the same headdress as Set and holds a stroke of lightning in an upraised hand. Orgiastic festivals are held in his honour, the male versions of Derketo’s festivals celebrating female sexuality.

The white bull is sacred to Min Koptos as is the long lettuce. The priests of Min tend to spend a lot of time with priestesses of Derketo and the priestesses of Min tend to spend a lot of time with the priests of Derketo. Of course, both deities have no problem with same-sex couplings either. When the king or other regional ruler makes a wife or concubine pregnant, an orgiastic celebration in honor of Min Koptos is held by the city or town.
