This image of "the sky goddess Nut of the 'two skies,'" reminds me of the holds of many slave-ships into which our ancestors were packed during the middle passage from Africa to the Americas from the 16-19th centuries. I happened upon this image today in the book, IMHOTEP: THE AFRICAN ARCHITECT OF THE COSMOS, by Robert Bauval and Thomas Brophy, Ph.D. (2013), 149.
