What's the story of bast and anubis..?

Question

Can anybody tell me where I can find the egyptian mythology story about anubis and Bastet?

Answer 1

As far as I know there is no story of bastet and anubis together, but I do know a lot about bastet.

She used to ride with the sun god ra's (who was her father) boat.

During the day, bast would accompany him in the boat, and during the night, she keped away the serpent apophalis (sorry if that is not how you spell it)

One night bast sleighed the serpent and was rewarded!:)



Bast was her name when she had the head of a cat and bastet was her name when she was in full cat form:)

Her sister was sekmet the lion goddess.

I know lots more but I won't bore you anymore with this information:)

Answer 3

Neith, Atum and Ra; all three of these gods were part of the earliest mythology in Egypt.

Neith and Atum as creation gods and Ra as symbol of the Sun, the source of all life on Earth.



There were no known stories of Bastet and Anubis together.



Bastet was the daughter of Ra, and the sister of the roaring lioness Sekhmet.

Around 2800 BCE she was portrayed as a lioness or wild desert cat, and by 1000 BCE she was depicted as the goddess of domesticated cat.

By this time, she took on a gentler role as the kind and compassionate goddess of fertility, childbirth and laughter.

Cats were sacred to her, and she was often portrayed as a woman with a cat's head.

Sometimes just as a cat or as a woman with kittens playing at her feet.



Her main temple and cult were in Bast (Now known as Tell-Basta).

Worshippers would sail to Bast for the annual festival where dead cats were embalmed, mummified and buried in sacred graveyards.



As for the story of Anubis; he was known as the canine god of death, and usually depicted as a dog or jackal-headed man.

Originally, known as the god of putrefaction. It was only in later myth that he became the protector of the dead against the robbers and the patron god of embalmers.

He supervised the weighing of souls of the newly deceased before Osiris' judgement throne.



Anubis was the first god to create a mummy when he wrapped up the dismembered corpse of Osiris.

In the necropolis, priests would wear a jackal mask when bodies were being embalmed to show the presence of Anubis.

Anubis And Bastet

Answer 6

Well aperently Anubis was first shown as the son of Bastet the Goddess of perfumes and protection, but she was the doughter of Ra so i dont get that really,later on when he became a God of embalming,Bastet became his wife but it say that she was only his wife for a short time.Anubis is son of Set so they say but that is not true sense Ra made sure that his son wouldn't be able to have kids so Set's wife Nephthys grew tirde of that and decided to cheat on her husband by turning her look into her sister Isis making love with Osiris but later Nephthys abendoned Anubis somewhere when she gave birth to him, out of fear from Set's rage,so Isis finding out that Osiris slept with her sister ,she walks the sands of Egypt to find the baby and then Isis adopt Anubis and he becomes her protector.I guess after Anubis broke up with Bastet he met his new mate Anput and mate with her getting a doughter a serpent Kebechet.

Hi there Anubis has a variety of other names including Anpu, Inpu, Ienpw, Imeut (Lord-of-the-Place-of-Embalming). He was the patron of mummification, and the dead on their path through the underworld. He is depicted as a man with the head of a jackal-like animal. Unlike a real jackal, Anubis' head is black, representing his position as a god of the dead. He is rarely shown fully-human, but he is depicted so in the Temple of Abydos of Rameses II. There is a beautiful statue of him as a full jackal in the tomb of Tutankhamun. Anubis is an incredibly ancient god, and was the original god of the dead before Osiris "took over" the position. After that point, Anubis was changed to be one of the many sons of Osiris and the psychopomp (conductor of souls) of the underworld. His totem of the jackal is probably due to the fact that jackals would hunt at the edges of the desert, near the necropolis and cemeteries throughout Egypt. Prayers to Anubis are found carved on the most ancient tombs in Egypt, and his duties apparently are many. He watches over the mummification process to ensure that all is done properly. He conducts the souls through the underworld, testing their knowledge of the gods and their faith. He places their heart on the Scales of Justice during the Judging of the Heart, and he feeds the souls of wicked people to Ammit. In some stories, Anubis is the son of Ra and Nephthys, or Set and Nephthys (probably due to Set and Anubis having the same totem animal). Some have Heset as his mother, and still others say Bast. This apparent confusion is still another sign of Anubis' origins in the most ancient of times. He also has a daughter, Kabechet, who helps him in the mummification. During different time periods in Egypt, myths and deities altered merged and split apart a different way and in the Old Kingdom the deity in question very much depended on where one worshipped. The Old Kingdom period is most commonly regarded as the beginning of the highest level of cultural development achieved by the ancient Egyptians. Old Kingdom deities included the Ennead of Heliopolis, whose chief god was Atum, later Atum-Ra the Ogdoad of Hermopolis, where the chief god was Thoth the Khnum-Satis-Anuket triad of Elephantine, whose chief god was Khnum the Amun-Mut-Chons triad of Thebes, whose chief god was Amun the Ptah-Sekhmet-Nefertem triad of Memphis, unusual in that the gods were unconnected before the triad was formalized, where the chief god was Ptah Middle Kingdom - The cult of Amun grew during the Middle Kingdom. By the New Kingdom, the Ogdoad and the Ennead were merged into a single syncretized cosmology. When the Ennead and Ogdoad merged, Ra and Amun were identified as one, becoming Amun-Ra, and Horus was initially considered the fifth sibling of Osiris, Isis, Nephthys and Set. However, Horus' mother, Hathor, gradually became identified as a form of Isis, leading Horus to be Isis' son, and therefore the son of Osiris. Pharaoh Akhenaten introduced monotheism in the form of Atenism, though this only survived until his death. This period is called the Amarna Period. Ra would not have served "under" Ra; Ra was a/the solar deity, but his worship ebbed and flowed throughout the history of Ancient Egypt, however space does not permit!! Hope this helps you a little Halcon :-))

Answer 8

Anubis is a god of death, and Ra is more of a god of light, so they were on opposite sides of the spectrum, but that doesn't necessarily mean that they would have had a bad relationship, because both were respect and revered as benevolent gods that protected humans
