Shub Niggurath,The Black Goat of the Woods with a Thousand Young
SHUB-NIGGURATH : Yog-Sothoth's wife, Shub-Niggurath is the perverse fertility goddess of antiquity. She is said to appear as a writhing black mass of tentacles and mouths, adorned with the horns and features of a goat that grotesquely spits forth lesser deities. She is the most magickal and generous ( and therefore most worshipped ) of the old-age cults. (Bible of Cthulhu p 56)

Osiris was called 'the black one' in various funerary texts and is often depicted with black skin and in the guise of a mummified body. Black is also the colour associated with the alluvial silt deposited on the banks of the River Nile after the annual flood receded.
