Description:
Bastet, also spelled Bast, is an ancient Egyptian goddess who was revered as a protector deity, particularly associated with home, fertility, childbirth, and domesticity. Depicted with the body of a woman and the head of a lioness or a domestic cat, Bastet symbolized both the gentle and fierce aspects of feline behavior. Cats were highly esteemed in ancient Egypt for their hunting abilities and their role in controlling pests, and Bastet was often depicted as a benevolent figure, safeguarding households and defending against evil spirits and diseases. She was also associated with music, dance, and joy. Bastet's cult was particularly prominent in the city of Bubastis, where a grand temple was erected in her honor. Throughout Egyptian history, she remained a popular and enduring figure, with festivals and rituals dedicated to her worship continuing for centuries.
