Fun Information: This Bastet Incense Holder depicts the ancient Egyptian goddess Bastet on the base of the incense holder. Bastet, or Bastet, was the descendant of the sun god Ra, married to Ptah, and mother of Mihos. Bastet was an Egyptian goddess who is still, fascinatingly enough, distinguished by many today. Her adoration began around the year 3200 BC during the age of the second dynasty in the northern Egyptian town of Bubastis. There, and in numerous other early cities, Egyptians celebrated Bastet’s feast day, October 31st, with tremendous glee and enthusiasm in order to pay tribute their goddess, their protector. Related to Neith, the Night Goddess, Bastet also denoted the moon in its role in making women fruitful. She was also the Egyptian Goddess of joy, music, dance and euphoria. She was the protector of women, children, and domestic cats. Further, she was linked to the Eye of Ra, acting as the means of the Sun God's vengeance; Cats were immeasurably holy animals to the ancient Egyptians. Cats were highly respected in Egyptian culture for their aptitude for catching mice and pests and fighting off snakes. They held an extremely high and privileged position in many homes and were seen as even more important than humans.
