In Egyptian mythology, Bastet, Bast, Ubasti, Ba-en-Aset ou Ailuros (Greek word for "cat") is a solar divindade, deusa da fertility, além de protetora das pregnant women.
It also has power over solar eclipses.
As for its name, it is believed that " Bastet " was a name given to that divinity in the Greco-Roman period and that, in turn, its correct name would be "Bast".
This has been present in the pantheon since the time of the Second Dynasty. She was represented as a woman with a cat's head, or as a haughty feline, with a big jump on her ear, like a magnificent tail.
Their cult center was in the city of Bubástis, in the eastern region of the Nile Delta. Our temples had raised cats that were considered the incarnation of the deity and who were for that reason treated as divinities.
When these animals died, they were mummified and buried in places reserved for them, not inside the pyramids.
The Egyptian Cat Support - Bastet is a piece that conveys beauty and sophistication, also rich in meaning and history.
