THE MOST POPULAR DEPICTION OF BASTET AS A SITTING CAT GAZING AHEAD.
This amazing unique statue has magnificent details from the toes to the head! A scarab is finely carved on the solid head, wearing elaborate collars around her nick and Wadjet (Eye of Horus) centered. The protection symbol of Scarab is engraved on her chest. While the whole story of the Goddess Bastet is finely hand carved around the base!
Leaving you with the photos. Enjoy 🙂
Bastet is the Egyptian goddess of the home, domesticity, women’s secrets, cats, fertility, and childbirth. She protected the home from evil spirits and disease, especially diseases associated with women and children. As with many deities in Egyptian religion, she also played a role in the afterlife as a guide and helper to the dead although this was not one of her primary duties. She was the daughter of the sun god Ra and is associated with the concept of the Eye of Ra (the all-seeing eye) and the Distant Goddess (a female deity who leaves Ra and returns to bring transformation).
