Neith (Ganymede)

Egyptian warrior goddess; goddess of domestic arts.

Neith crater is a crater on Jupiter's moon Ganymede, the largest moon in the solar system. Impact features like Neith have been called "penepalimpsests" by some investigators or "dome craters" by others and are considered to be transitional. Palimpsests are bright, nearly circular patches that are believed to be remnant impact features. They occur also on Callisto, Ganymede's neighbor farther distant from Jupiter. (wikipedia entry)

A crater is a circular depression likely created by an impact event. On Ganymede they are named after gods and heroes of ancient Fertile Crescent people.
