The Egyptian deity often characterized as being both male and female in gender is "Hermaphroditus." This deity is a combination of the god Hermes (male) from Greek mythology and the goddess Aphrodite (female). In some contexts, the merging of these deities resulted in a representation of both genders or a deity with attributes of both sexes. However, it's important to note that Hermaphroditus is not a traditional Egyptian deity but rather a figure from Greek mythology. In Egyptian mythology, there are deities with androgynous aspects, but the concept of a dual-gender deity is more closely associated with Greek mythology.
