Montu was the patron of all manner of martial arts and warfare, strength, and masculine virility. A powerful royal god, he inspired kings and warriors on the battlefield. Fighting was said to be the “work of Montu.” He was thought to be the destructive element of the sun's heat – it was said that “his bread is hearts, and his water is blood.”

Egypt’s greatest general-kings called themselves “Mighty Bulls,” the sons of Montu. Battleships were decorated with four images of the god, spearing and trampling the enemies of Egypt. In the famous narrative of the Battle of Kadesh, Ramses II was said to have seen the enemy and “raged at them like Montu, Lord of Thebes.”

For a warrior to be talked of as fighting like "Montu in his might" was a supreme compliment. Amulets of Montu were popular with men. Montu was said to slay Ra's enemies from the prow of his boat as it traveled through the underworld.

Montu was also thought to be a guardian of marriage, and was sometimes mentioned in marriage contracts. One document from Deir el-Medina invokes the rage of a husband to his unfaithful wife with, "It is an abomination of Montu!"
