Sinworhet
Sinworhet is located in the Makir Hills of northern Khemit, on Lake Bakhari where the river of the same name flows out to the south. Although the hills are rocky in general, and populated mostly by herds of goats, fertile soil is found around the shores of the lake. Settlement at this location goes back to the time of the double kingdom (probably in the 6th Dynasty) but the population of Sinworhet grew significantly during the Hyperborean period, when soldiers who had spent their careers in Khemit decided to retire in the area. This lakeside city was a popular choice for retirees and much of the populace has at least some Hyperborean ancestry. Several temples to Hyperborean deities can still be found here, especially the soldiers’ god Mithras, and Telophus, lord of crops.
