In Egyptian mythology, Hathor is one of the main cattle deities as she is the mother of Horus and Ra and closely associated with the role of royalty and kingship.[2] Hesat is one of Hathor's manifestations, usually portrayed as a white cow representing purity and the milk that she produces to give life to humanity.[2] Other feminine bovine deities include Sekhat-Hor, Weryt, and Shedyt.[3] Their masculine counterparts include Apis, Mnevis, Sema-wer, Ageb-wer.[3] Artistic RepresentationsWhile there are not many images of Hesat that are recorded and published, there are a few representations on pieces that belong to major museums world wide. The Metropolitan Museum of Art has in its collection Scarab with the Representation of Hathor as a Cow.[4] The hieroglyphs on this late period piece read ḥsȜt determined with a recumbent cow with the following hieroglyphs: HA V17 t This spelling of her name is using cryptographic substitution, which became established in the New Kingdom.[5] Traditionally phonetic spellings of Hesat's name from earlier periods were usually written as follows:[6]V28 O34 G39 G1 t E4 References1. ^Wilkinson, Richard H.
