Andjeti (transliteration: Ꜥnḏtỉ, meaning: "One of Andjet") is an ancient Egyptian deity of war who was worshipped in the 9th nome of Lower Egypt of the same name, and particularly at its provincial capital Busiris. Andjeti is considered one of the earliest Egyptian gods, possibly with roots in prehistoric Egypt. He is thought to have been a precursor of Osiris.
