Bastet/Bast - Cat Goddess - Ancient Egyptian Mythology Documentary

[@Ciara1594]

What made it worse was the fact that the Roman had killed the cat after a Solar Eclipse. To the Egyptians it was an unforgivable blasphemy, because they believed that cats protected the Sun. They also believed that when the Sun went down that the rays of the Sun went into the cats eyes and they guarded the Sun until morning. It also explained why the cats eyes shine in the dark. 🐈☀️

[@bestofworld90]

Ohh that’s a violation the narrator left that out, did the Roman man know about the revered cat policy? It doesn’t matter anyways lol thanks for the info

[@Ciara1594]

@@bestofworld90 I'm sure that he did but being a Roman he didn't care. And it cost him his life. The Egyptians also believed that their main God Aman-Ra turned into a cat at night and fought with the God Set. Set was the equivalent of Satan to the Ancient Egyptians. 🙂

Cat Facts Cat's can dislocate their collar bones to flatten themselves out more so that they can fit in very small spaces. Cat's can't taste sweetness. Cat's lay in the sunlight to set their circadian rhythm. Cat's can easily withstand higher and lower temperature ranges than either humans or dogs. Closing your eyes in a cat's presences tells them that you are a friend. Cat's are designed to get all of their water through the meat they eat. All the world's cats are descended from domesticated Egyptian cats.

[@JT5555]

Correction On The First Fact: They Don't Dislocate They're Collar Bones,So Much As Their Shoulder Bones Are Disconnected Entirely And Are Just Kind Of Floating There.

I first learned of Bastet when she appeared in the December 1998 issue of Top Cow Comics' "Witchblade / Tomb Raider." For too long Bastet has been relegated to commonplace obscurity. Only during the past decade, more or less, have I noticed an increase of deserved attention being returned to this incredible Egyptian Goddess. Thanks for this wonderful video about Bastet.

Cats are my favorites (sorry, doggies (I love you too!!)). I believe they are intuitive and telepathic. I lived with two for a very long time at my daughter's residence and became convinced of this after a long period of observance. I once had occasion to state to the youngest of the two that she was not a human being. Her immediate reaction was one I'll never forget. She appeared wounded - deeply - which evokes even now a feeling of shame as I believe there was a realization for her that cut her to the quick. Had anyone seen her reaction I believe that person would have thought so too. I'm not at all surprised that they were valued for practical and spiritual reasons.

if you're friends with a cat, consider making a cat tether, from a cat collar and mason line to allow them free range on your property outside. they appreciate the chance to hunt and be outdoors. although you must check constantly for tangles and snags, it's the best solution out there for keeping them on your property and allowing them some time to hunt. eventually when they kill something or at least catch it, don't discourage them, be proud and happy for them. mine has caught over 30 chipmunks but always let's them live, she killed a mouse, she sometimes catches birds but let's them live. the trick here is to watch out every 15 minutes or so to free whatever poor creature she's caught and then duly reward the cat with praise and love. let nature be nature. as much as you can bear. they deserve it.

If you're a true cat lover DON'T USE CLAY LITTER, IT GETS IN THEIR LUNGS AND KILLS THEM. 🐈

[@realniggaruben4391]

@Bernedette Kuteyi I think the pellets are good because they don't cause dust, I use corn cob litter though

[@gristlevonraben]

Seriously? Are your cats digging to china?

[@realniggaruben4391]

@@gristlevonraben it's especially deadly for kittens, cats lungs are very small, and for an adult cat it will shorten it's lifespan, also if you use clay litter and an enclosed litter box that's the worst.

My cat brings me joy, happiness, hope, faith etc...I see her as a mini Goddess. I worship her. Periodt.

[@jenniferbeyer6412]

Bastet is my favorite Egyptian goddess. I am 57 years old this year, and always have had at least 1 cat with me. Except for 1 year, when I lost Tessa, I feel she visits me regularly, and I miss her. The 2 I have now are throwaways who found me. Both are great companions. And keep me grounded in the here and now. Cats will always be a part of my life.

[@Pootycat8359]

I tend to chuckle at those PSAs that admonish people to "adopt, not shop" for their pets. While I can agree, ALL of my family members adopted ME, not the other way around. I appear to be something of a "cat magnet," which is fine by me.

My female cat is named Bastet

Cool name for a cat

I have always liked this guy's voice. It's very important for a narrator to have an appealing sound. Most narrator's have a slow, constant and dull approach to describing what we're seeing on screen, but this guy has a very interesting, humorous and indulging sound, it keeps me focused on what's going on. Not only that but I love the Egyptian videos that this channel makes, the animated Egyptian farmer mini documentary was very good, I find myself watching it over and over, not only bc I like "New Historia" documentaries, but I LOVE CATS lol. Please make more animated documentaries on ancient Egypt, they are my favorite to watch. Ty for all your hard work and for sharing it w us.

My calico found me a baby female who I named sassy. Now another has found me a male who I call Leo.been receiving blessings on top of blessings ever since I started taking care and feeding them everyday. I couldn’t see my life without them

[@stockingmeijer2208]

I have 3 cats, and i believe in the ancient gods, cats are holy in my eyes

[@marthas.4456]

Ancient Egypt was always my favourite bygone civilisation. Their love of cats makes me appreciate the old Egyptians even more.

[@dominikm.8990]

umm, I have never seen an Ancient Egyptian calendar where December is the last month of the year. Usually it was between the end of June, the middle of July or early August. The dates moved because the constellations which determined them moved as well as time passed.

[@nosha200y]

Actually June and July were the time the Nile flooded and all agriculture activities were stopped... So it was the time for leisure and worship in hopes of a prosperous new year. I am not sure how the year ending in December came about exactly, but I think it had something to do with cultural exchanges... Maybe with the entrance of Christianity

[@dominikm.8990]

@@nosha200y I get that, there was a discrepancy between the actual flooding and the Heliacal Rising of Sirius because there was a gradual shift of the climate and the precession of Sirius. However, the Egyptian year never ended in December, since December was at the end of the flood season. Coptic New Year even today is 11 September, but unlike the ancient Calendar which took the celestial movements into account, the Coptic Calendar follows a set date for New Year's.

[@marissabones]

I absolutely love the editing

People today might laugh at this law. But this ironically would’ve come in handy in Europe and Asia back in 1300’s. Imagine if this law was kept and adopted worldwide for another 3000 Years.

[@leslyeeherrera6695]

I think I fell in love with Bastet😻

[@Presley9]

It was an Amazing video!!! With an amazing quality

[@holyfox94]

It’s hard to see how animals get treated nowadays in Egypt. Especially dogs, cats are doing a little bit better. Modern Egypt and its arabian inhabitants have nothing to to do with its past. Most don’t care. Still, the ancient sites are amazing, a must see. There’s something special going on, something magical.

[@edwigelacroix4184]

That's because those people are not the original Egyptian.

[@holyfox94]

Edwige Lacroix I was shocked how most Egyptians don’t care for the ancient sites. They couldn’t care less. They only thing they care are the revenues they bring.

[@damienomusic]

I wish there was a single video or a series of them to cover Egyptian mythology and some myths. Very interesting, but quite complicated. At least now I know something about Bastet, thank you!

[@pierre-jeanselles4518]

Your video should be played in schools History as I wish it was taught to me :) Excellent, please go on !

[@StarAlchemy]

I hope you pick this back up and do other Goddesses and Gods. I searched many channels on Mythology, Goddesses, Gods, Egypt this is one of the few that kept my attention.

[@bennu547]

Seckmet and Bastet I would say are up in the air. Depending on what mythology you’re looking at they’re sisters, Seckmet changed into Bastet eventually or they’re their own separate beings. It’s definitely confusing because again myths do change. Like how Anubis is either Horus’ half brother or Anubis was adopted by Isis so that’s how Horus and Anubis are brothers. They’re still brothers in the end but mythology changes so you’d often find different variations of myths

[@midnightkitty8172]

There's nothing quite like ancient mythology. Great video New Historia~! 'Like'd and 'Subscribed'.

[@hreader]

Fascinating! My parents acquired their first cat to chase mice out of their house - highly successful. 'Pishkin' came in at the front door from the local RSPCA, mice fled out at once out of the back and were not seen again! I hadn't realised cats could take on cobras as well as the more ordinary vermin, although I once heard tell of a large, fierce marmalade cat who brought down a hare.

[@natassjagale9897]

My Siberia forest cat who I call Phoneix he brought us a Hard he had just hunted. Jumped right through our window and placed him down in front of our TV still blood beating. My poor kids haha before school the thing was the size almsot of my cat. I never realized he would try and hunt such an animal. They are amazing with how independent and instinctively they will hunt for themselves.

[@natassjagale9897]

*hare, he's also a beautiful orange and white tabby colour. He also hunted my poor snake. He's not afraid of coons either.
