Taweret, meaning she who is great or the great one, is a goddess in ancient Egyptian mythology, revered throughout the land as a protector, especially of households and women in labour.[1]
She is often depicted as a bipedal hippopotamus, with feline hands and human breasts, wearing a nemes.
As a protective deity, amulets often bore her likeness.
During his travels, Bayek found a stone circle dedicated to Taweret.[2]
