An administrative district or nome (Greek νομός, Egyptian sp˒ ͗t [sepat]) of ancient EGYPT. Herodotus lists Anytis as one source of men for the CALASIRIES, a group within the Egyptian warrior class (2.166.1). Herodotus’ list does not map exactly onto other ancient evidence for nomes, but Anytis was probably located in the northeast portion of the Nile DELTA. Its capital was presumably ANYSIS, usually identified with the later Roman Heracleopolis Parva, modern Tell Belim.
